Well foxes are small, and I'm not sure if the creature variation sets them to a humanish height or just "gravitate" by a percent. They're still small. So even being really strong it's still hard to kill something far greater than your size.

Hmmmm is it possible to make the attributes higher than 5000?

Well, he didn't say "can I make them increase to higher than 10000", which yeah you can make it 5x, 10x, whatnot.

i'm saying that you can, syndromeless, increase them to essentially any arbitrary amount, since there's no cap to attribute caps

Quick noob question;
I made a civ by just copy pasting the entity_default dwarves and creature_standard dwarves and editing them to my taste. I didn't do any drastic changes:
A desert people that isn't much different from the dwarves and should build human cities.

But for some reason they never show up when generating a new world.  I can spawn some of them in the arena but that's it. Are there any common noob mistakes I probably made?

Did you make sure the file name is different, did you make sure that the inside entity_whateveryouput is the same as the file name, if that's not it, then you should check the error log

Is it possible to add a new caste to an existing creature without modifying the default RAWs? I want to add a "hobgoblin" caste to goblins without editing the defaults it at all possible. I've made new creatures before and I've been looking at the animal person/giant tags to try to reason out if [COPY_TAGS_FROM:X] and [GO_TO_START/END] could be used for it.

Google wasn't a help with this question so I made an account on the forums to see if anyone here knew.

I thought the Cap was 5000 for the tag [PHYS_ATT_RANGE:STRENGTH:450:950:1150:1250:1350:1550:2250]
