Hmm. I can't see any reason those would cause that issue.
Sorry for the bother. I think it's a preexisting bug caused by one of the custom races I added earlier.

Is there a token to have a creature pick up items (rocks, bones, etc) and throw them?

Would this work for a creature to throw a rock or am I missing something here?

STONE isn't a valid material, needs to be a specific stone

Oh ok thanks. If I changed it to BONE would this work as a way for the creature  to throw bones?

Youd have to define the species from which the bone comes from, again theres no such thing as generic bones, but yes a material emission can launch bones.

Like CDI:MATERIAL:CREATURE_MAT:DWARF:BONE might work, not at my laptop right now.

Thanks. I think I'll try giving it an in game emission attack and then slightly modifying it until it works.

Is there are particular purpose to having a creature with a [PET_VALUE] token without a [PET] or [PET_EXOTIC] token, or should the always be paired?

Entities can be set to domesticate creatures that arent normally tameable, and if it doesnt have a petvalue theyll only cost 1 embark pt per animal. Its safe to include it, for sure. It wont cause any problems.

So default creatures, like penguins and cuttlefish, that don't have [PET] or [PET_EXOTIC] tokens, but do have a [PET_VALUE], would technically be 'bugged' in that respect since no default entity uses them as specifically domesticated animals?

Not bugged at all. Theyre just not supposed to be tameable by normal civs or even elves, but if you did make a civ that has domesticated them, then they would have a pet value already attached to them, so adding one wouldnt be necessary.
