how would the token look if i was to add a material token to the breath attack how would it look like wiki didnt give any good advice 

[Putnam]

What do you mean, "add a material token to the breath attack"?

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

[CDI:MATERIAL:INORGANIC:LEAD:SOLID_GLOB]

Like Putnam I am confused

[Gaybarowner]

i was reading on the wiki it says you can define what it breathes such as gas liquid or solid i think

[Gaybarowner]

what i mean is how would a breath attack look when placing it on a creature mainly

dank ya

[Gaybarowner]

where it says :LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT what do i have to change it so it doesnt rip off its skin to use fire?

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

erm... INORGANIC:<ID>
or
WATER:SOLID_GLOB
or
MUD:SOLID_GLOB
or
CREATURE_MAT:DOG:BONE:SOLID_GLOB
or
PLANT_MAT:REED_ROPE:THREAD:SOLID_GLOB

follows the same rules as reactions

where it says :LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT what do i have to change it so it doesnt rip off its skin to use fire?

LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT just means that whatever it is going to be breathing out is defined in the creature entry, just the same as how PLANT_MAT:XXXX means that a material is defined in a plant.

[Gaybarowner]

well i made a attempt but nothing comes out when the creature uses the attack this is what i got

 [CAN_DO_INTERACTION:MATERIAL_EMISSION]
       [CDI:ADV_NAME:Test]
       [CDI:USAGE_HINT:ATTACK]
       [CDI:BP_REQUIRED:BY_CATEGORY:MOUTH]
       [CDI:MATERIAL:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:FIREJET]
       [CDI:TARGET:C:LINE_OF_SIGHT]
       [CDI:TARGET_RANGE:C:15]
       [CDI:MAX_TARGET_NUMBER:C:1]
       [CDI:WAIT_PERIOD:50]

[Putnam]

For those you want FLOW instead of a material.

[Gaybarowner]

which one do i change to flow?

[Gaybarowner]

since i swapped MATERIAL to FLOW but still no dice

[Putnam]

You want to replace both MATERIAL and LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT, since those are both materials. Look at the fire imp for an example.
