As far as I know that should be fine.

Megabeasts are terribly fickle about crashes, mind.

Adding LAIR:### helps with that.

Also, if they're missing biomes or pretty much anything else that could cause any problem with placing whatsoever. I'm not sure if having both tokens could be one of those things.

If I were to start a fort with the intention of embarking with, say, 20-40 dwarves and no more migrants, what would be the best way to execute a dwarfsplosion?

I assume that putting in a [MULTIPLE_LITTERS_COMMON] and [LITTERSIZE:1:X] where X is an arbitrary number I would settle on before I genned the world?


Also, I assume it's possible to mod dwarves so they reproduce via eggs (not planning on trying it, just asking)?


Actually that would make an interesting fortress. Make it so female dwarves demand nest boxes, and then you'd have to choose between eating dwarf eggs or hoping dwarves hatch.

[MULTIPLE_LITTERS_COMMON] isn't a real tag, though [LITTERSIZE:min:max] will work.

It can be done, though I wouldn't recommend it. It would be difficult to keep your dwarf on the nest for three months straight.

Ah. I was browsing through a few raws for the very first time and saw the multiple litters rare tag, and thought that there must be a multiple litters common tag.

and about eggs, yeah.......that would be the trick, wouldn't it?

Well, not having the tag would be the equivalent of that non-existent anti-tag, wouldn't it?

(such negativity in this post)

I want to make a creature with nigh-invincible hide, but that dies instantly if it's eyes are damaged. Can that be done?

Make its eyes actually a pair o' brains named "eyes"... or maybe just one brain named "eyes".

I thought an Ettin with two brains could survive on one brain?  In that case a single brain called "eyes" is definitely the way to go.

It will take some finessing to get the facial feature locations to be consistent, but the end should be exactly what Enemy post had in mind.

I applied Wanderer's Friend and then changed all the entity site types to CITY. I also added [INDIV_CONTROLLABLE] to everything. When I start a kobold or goblin character, I'm unable to talk in the town I spawn in, and as soon as I leave and enter another town, I get attacked on sight, even if it's a town from my civilization. It seems to have caused a mini loyalty cascade as well, since one of the kobolds that attacked me died in the fight to the other kobolds from that town. Unfortunately, kobolds have very bad aim, so I got quite a few counter-attacks off on them, making me an enemy of the civilization.

Is there some tag I missed? Is this a bug? I'll upload the save later today, but it was just the changes I outlined here plus the MEDIUM REGION preset with [REVEAL_ALL_HISTORY:0] and the seed "Dwarf Fortress".

[LOCAL_BANDITRY] causes your problem.

In a custom race, is it possible to create (a caste of?) Snatchers and Thieves that are children, and restrict the Snatchers/Thieves to ONLY children--no adults as snatchers ever?

There's no way to restrict snatcher and thieve jobs to a specific caste, as far as I know.
