first time fiddling with raws, will this work?
« on: August 07, 2012, 01:36:35 am »
1. will this work
2. if it won't can you help
3. if it does work is it a bad idea.

I've highlighted the parts I've changed. Hopefully those will give dwarves the ability to breath fire and the ability to not get hit by friendly fire. at least thats what I'm trying for.

I think it should work.

you will have to be careful where you use it i.e as far away from the booze stockpile as possible
Edit just test it

Also make sure to increase the melting/boiling point of your dwarves' body materials.  FIREIMMUNE will keep them from bursting into flames, but they'll still melt off their own skin and fat if they're not careful (which they won't be).  Check the bottom of the dragon raws for an example.

... Why do people still seem to think that booze explodes?

The real question is why did they think so in the first place. Booze has never exploded, at least as far back as 40d, it has just boiled.

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!

It looks like an explosion, so I guess people assumed it was.

is that what happened? I think I may have fixed it by changing their tissues to metal. at least I copied part of the stuff from a bronze collossus and changed every reference of bronze to adamantine.

it seems to have worked [not comletely sure, but they've stopped dying and the broken teeth look blue] but it also has the side effect of making them almost unkillable [one dwarf against ten dragons in the arena and the dwarf wins. five dwarfs against each other and I start getting bored.] so I guess if I use it seriously I'd change the mwlting and boiling points so its not too boring.
