Try [...BY_CATEGORY:HORN:HORN] instead.

It worked! Thanks. The one combination I didn't think of.

[leafbarrett]

Using the joint modifications in the Modest Mod, I wanted to implement joints into the bodies of creatures, instead of just being an external part hanging off the main body part; that way, they should (if I understand it correctly) be counted in armor coverings - in the default, as far as I know, you can literally skip leg covering if you have high boots and a breastplate, because the upper legs are protected by one of those two and the waist is protected by the other.

However, this completely breaks fingers, toes, and attacks.

<repeat for every single creature with fingers or toes>Why? What did I do wrong?


On an unrelated note, is it possible to make a male-only or female-only species reproduce?

[scamtank]

Hrmmmmm. MM's changes don't look like they have that connector-joint deal going on. Look at the original list of body parts, notice the order? Every single bodypart is connected to something that's already been defined above it. So when your right upper arm tries to find what it's stuck on, it can't see a single RUA_J category component on the incomplete body and it throws a fit.

That's my guess without any testing, anyway. Try placing the elbows after the upper arms and before the forelimbs, the wrists between the forearms and the hands and then see if fingers still throw up errors.

That did the trick, thanks!

Now my other question - can single-sex creatures reproduce? Do I need to do anything to enable it?

[Eric Blank]

I honestly can't think of any way to get creatures to reproduce asexually, as in proper asexual reproduction. The game is set up to allow sexual reproduction and that's all. Eggs that aren't fertilized by a male won't hatch etc.


You could give them an extremely rare male caste, and then females can transform into that male caste occasionally and fertilize females that didn't transform. How to decide which ones transform and when is the problem.

[leafbarrett]

Then how do harpies work? They're a female-only creature...

Wild animal populations are spawned regardless of their actual ability to reproduce.  A lot of subterranean monsters are sexless as well.

Hello, I'm working on a mod that basically makes kobold a little more evolved and basically makes them the 5th main race. However, I have one problem. On the world map, the tiles for Dwarven and Kobold fortresses are the same (I made their main site type CAVE_DETAILED). How can I change the tiles on the world map ?

Can't, unfortunately.

Ah, that's unfortunate. Another question, what exactly does the [QUICKFLEE] tag does (it's in the creatures raw, on things like kobolds and goblins for example) ? Does it make the creature more likely to run from battle, or just make them run faster when they're fleeing ?

[ZM5]

It makes them more likely to flee from battle - movement speed itself is under the tokens for gaits.

From the wiki: "Determines how soon a creature flees in a losing battle. Creatures with this tag will flee at the first sign of resistance."

Is there a define list of valid parameters for the ART_IMAGE_ELEMENT_MODIFIER token, or can you just take parameters from any word groups ?

Yeah!!! I guess not!!!
