[Deon]

I will upload it in 2 days, ok? I have all-night job today and tomorrow, and I want to finish something.

[Person]

It's been about 3 days. I'll message deon one more time in case they forgot to upload it and have it done.

A pop ratio of 0 resets it to 100, so not that.

That seems...oddly counter-intuitive. Has this been tested?

Yes... It has...

[GreatWyrmGold]

Alright, carry on.
The question of "why" may never be answered, but oh well.

[Crazy Cow]

Presumably, Toady has never needed to use [POP_RATIO:0], so it isn't coded to work the way one would expect.

[Nyan Thousand]

[POP_RATIO:0] sounds counter-intuitive in the first place, anyway. Why would you add a caste if there's no way of it appearing anyway?

for NOBLE only castes

for UPGRADE only castes

If a Entities noble position can only be filled by a caste that never appears that caste is forced into existance to fill the role. And syndromes/interactions can transform a creautre to the hidden caste.

For Toady a [POP_RATIO:0] is not needed, but for us modders it would be awsome.

Why would Toady code it to replace the 0 with a 100? It'd be simpler and saner, and what the math predicts--0/6 would be zero.

Adventurers can also be any caste right?

[Putnam]

Yes, but it appears that your starting caste is determined by pop ratios--it's just that you can choose which anyway.

[EmperorJon]

Going away for a while. If my turn comes up I'll do it when I'm back, ok? I'll tell you when I'm back.

[Person]

I've skipped deon for now and notified New Guy.

[Crazy Cow]

Updated mod, now with http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=6663DFFD link!
CHANGES:
Queen positions are now limited to Queen castes. A drone will be forced into the leader position when you embark, but you can't assign any non-Queens to the positions after that.

I'm working on a domestic creature you can change into several useful forms, such as one that spits acid and another that explodes. I'll have 'em done in a few days (hours if I get motivated enough ;P).

this isn't allowed to die until the modding kills it.
