if you use advanced world generation to create a world with no demons, there also no goblins.
what causes this? and how do I force armok to be the ruler of dwarven civs?

[ShinQuickMan]

IIRC, a clown leader is needed to create the HFS spire for Dark Fortress capitals. No clowns, no capital, no goblins.

As for the Armok question, assuming you already made an Armok creature, the only way I could think of is to make a civ started and ruled by him, and have Dwarves emigrate to it later on. I'm not even sure if that could work at all.

How would one create an entity that has an increased tendency to make cities rather than hamlets? if this isnt possible what kind of problems may I face if I increase the amount of sites they create in general

[Putnam]

Cities are hamlets with bigger population.

Cities are hamlets with bigger population.

This, but also I find that if you put a civ's exclusive biome as something rather far off and not easily reachable they more commonly make gigantic towns. I.e I have a modded civ that starts in the tundras and taigas, and since they're far off from other civs and dont get into too many wars, their cities expand much more noticably than those civs that get into wars.

I notice that for the most part elves act differently in their home entity and in human entities.
is there any way to make elves have the ethics as elves despite being part of the human entity?

[IRefuseToChooseAUserName]

As I was looking through the raws I noticed that the position tokens for the humans and goblins are missing.
#1 Is this a problem?
#2 Could this be why the Humans have not sent a caravan?
#3 What position would I have to add to the Evles to get them to do trade agreements?
#4 If I add things to fix these discrepancies would I need to regen my world?

I apologize if this is not the right thread to ask these questions.

#1: Look harder, they have tokens that say that their positions are randomly generated titles. You can still add your own in the way the dwarves and elves have, though. My humans work just fine with their kings and chancellors, so I'm guessing it just generates roles that aren't specifically defined.
#2: Nah, I don't think so. If you're playing 42.05, they're blocked by the bug that makes your fortress exports not actually increase the "exports out" fame number that they depend on. You could remove it or add some other PROGRESS_TRIGGER token to sidestep that.
#3: You give a position RESPONSIBILITY:TRADE. I gave it to acolytes, personally.
#4: Yes, I don't think any of these things are exceptions that'd pass into a running game.

[BlackFlyme]

Human and Goblin entities have semi-randomly generated positions. It's what [VARIABLE_POSITIONS:ALL] does.

The Humans may just be too far away to come. Or you haven't hit their trade triggers yet.

The position token that allows trade agreements is [ESTABLISH_COLONY_TRADE_AGREEMENTS]. I think it only allows agreements between the same civilization though. At least, the wiki indicates as such.

And generally, yes, changes to entities will require a regen.

Is it possible to make an interaction require the target to have a specific [SYN_CLASS] yet?

[Starmantis]

How do subteranian civs work right now? any way for them to build cities? or any way to have custom civs in hell?

[pikachu17]

my custom civ has special attacks that transforms  hit creatures into the custom civ's creature. mostly copied werebeast example. it kinda works in world gen. an elf got hit and then became that creature, however later that same creature defended it's original civ.
how do I make the transformed creatures join custom civ?

I believe the Succubus mod does something like this, which can also be found rolled up inside Masterwork.  No idea how it works, though.

IIR it requires certain DFHack scripts for it to work properly.

I don't think Masterwork can tie its shoes without DFHack.
