As for my proposed "manufacture ammo crate", it should speed up the production of minigun battle saddles. I added it to MWT prismatic forge, because it makes most sense. It uses exactly the same resources as making ammo the normal way, but skips the intermediate steps and any problems with soldiers claiming that ammo first. It uses metalcrafting and not mechanics (because that's what used for ammo quality), but it doesn't matter either way. Here are the RAWs:

If you also want more efficient steel making reaction, my proposal is to use 1 scrap, 1 flux and 1 coal at the prismatic forge and make 2 bars. This uses up less of everything, has no byproducts from smelting scrap, such as copper and aluminum bars and works much faster. If you want to incorporate magnetite, limonite and hematite, it requires 3 more reactions that produce 4 bars each, but we make most of our steel from scrap anyway. In combination with processing lots of low quality salvage, this should make producing sets of combat armour and steel ammo relatively painless.

I believe there were some proposals for rubber / tarp "leather", gas masks and hazmat suits a few pages back.

So. I really need some help creating a good embark profile. I have NO idea what I need and what I don't need and how to designate skills properly.

[Maklak]

Sell antique, scrap and makeshift stuff for extra embark points.

Take some food and drink, a bronze drill or two, a bronze hacksaw or two, 1-2 anvils, 2-5 toolboxes, seeds of synth-reed, sweet pods and quarry bushes and whatever else you want.

Chickens are needed to make robots later in the game (works by creature transformations). A few robots are nice, as they will shoot at animals and scare them away from the entrance, but don't count on them having any combat effectiveness without upgrades.

If you can take saltpetre stones with you, that's great, it is used to make gunpowder efficiently. Coal is always good, but don't take any ore -- if you have trees at all, scrap will be your ore. If you feel like gambling, take some high quality salvage, but keep it for a while as processing it quickly will bump up your fort value.

As for skills, it is pretty much the normal deal, except mechanics is very useful for high quality loot from crates and metalcrafting gives you high quality bullets. Other than that, look at what Cutie Marks you have and assign skills accordingly - CMs give up to 3 times better learn rates. 

I think I've written this all several times already.

EDIT: Looking at the RAWs, I think that  Balefire Phoenixes breath has too much range. But then it can has a 2 week wait period.

EDIT2: Looking at the RAWs, the Sprite-bots seem to only fire their lasers at ENEMY class creatures. I think this is a mistake.

Pretty sure that's on purpose.  They used to have a nasty habit of shooting pony skulls in, instead of being mild to moderate annoyances.

> They used to have a nasty habit of shooting pony skulls in, instead of being mild to moderate annoyances.
I don't recall anything like it and they are on my side anyway. I'd like them to shoot those buzzards and parasprites, like protectaponies do. If some invader skulls get smashed in the process, I have no problem with it. But maybe I'm wrong and you're right.

Anyway, have a table of robots from my new script.

At average body density this roughly translates to grams, so size 1000 would be around 1 kg. Bodies made out of exotic material will weight more, though. The extended option to print sizes has the format of years:days:size. Speed is really delay, the bigger the "speed", the slower the creature. It is further modified by agility and strength, but basically 1000 speed (the default) means you can perform an action every ten "ticks". Class is a rough approximation of how dangerous a creature is, based on tokens such as "LARGE_ROAMING". Benign creatures aren`t aggressive, but will still be attacked by the military. "Enemy" is a FoE-only category for the most dangerous enemies. Basically, when it comes to relative threat, Enemy > Predator > Roaming > Benign. Grazer means you either have to pasture it on soil or it will die of starvation. The smaller the value the more grass it needs. Misc column lists various RAW tokens such as OPPOSED_TO_LIFE. Synd. Int. displays basic info about syndromes and interactions.     SYN:name (Inh., Cnt., Inj., Sick, INT) is a Syndrome. Inh. is inhaled, Cnt. is contact and Inj. is injected. Sick means the syndrome causes some kind of sickness or even death. INT means the syndrome gives the ability to use an interaction.     INT:name (emission, U:hint, self, R:0, W:0) is an interaction. Emission menas this is a material emission. U is usage hint. Self means SELF_ONLY. R is range. W is wait period (in ticks, so 1200 is one day, 8400 is one week and so on). Known bugs: * Some creatures are "duplicated" if this script reads "entity_default.txt", so only feed it files with creature RAWs. "*creature*.txt" works for most mods. * Some caste-specific information, such as interactions, is duplicated. This is because interactions are added as the script encounters them inside creature RAWs, regardless of castes. Some things are pushed into arrays, others overwritten by new data, others still just stay the same once defined. * There is no indication which syndrome gives which interactions.   * Filtering out fake creatures is not foolproof, so there are still some of those in other tables as well as false positives. Make sure to use --fake if you`re missing a creature. * The superset of best natural skills for all castes is printed. For example if one caste has DODGING:5 and HAMMER:10 and another DODGING:2 and SWORD:10, you`ll get DODGING:5; HAMMER:10; SWORD:10. The alternative is to specify --allskill so that natural skills are printed with repetitions for all castes. In the earlier example this would be DODGING:5; HAMMER:10; DODGING:2; SWORD:10. Choose whichever you think has fewer disadvantages.   * Sorting sometimes throws "undefined value" errors around. This is normal, but try to sort by columns that have most if not all values. * You can give feedback or request features here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=126953.0

I don't think it's because he's legendary.  I think that the various special salvage toys are linked to the toy pool to craft.  He also just made a gold Pinkie Pie statuette.

That shouldn't happen, side they only make the toys that their civ has.

I'm probably a bit late, but you can fix this by going to entity_default and adding toy tokens for all the stuff you want them to be able to make. I'm guessing that if there aren't any toys that they're specifically supposed to make, they'll just make every possible one.
I tested this by adding the tokens and generating a new world, it worked for me.

[Maklak]

Thanks for the fix, Plazma Rush.

Masterwork RAWs helped me to figure out how to make AMR cut off limbs. First you need to bump MAX_VELOCTY to some very high value, like 30000 or 50000 (the current is 3000) (and while you're at it, make the value for Spitfire's Thunder higher than for AMR).

Then you need the AMMO_HIGH to have an attack with high contact area (10-50k), high penetration (it already is) and high velocity multiplier (2-15, which translates to 2000-15000).

Finally, ammo needs to be bigger to have more mass.

I haven't tested it, but it should work (and of course needs balancing, we don't want to obliterate everything with 3 shots... or do we?) Some of those parameters make little sense, like big contact area and mass, but a high velocity multiplier makes perfect sense.

All the ammo has a velocity multiplier of "1", which translates to 0.001, the default being 1000. This must be part of a reason why I found ranged weapons to be so underpowered and should be fixed.

Anyway, have a table of weapons:

Read 32 melee weapons, 10 ranged weapons, 4 ammunition types and 6 trap components.

At average body density this roughly translates to grams, so size 1000 would be around 1 kg. Items made out of metal will weight (about 8 times) more, of course. Larger size means more mass for blunt attacks. 2H / 1H values are responsible for who can use that weapon. 2H is MINIMUM_SIZE, the minimum creature size to wield that weapon at all. 1H is TWO_HANDED, the minimum creature size to use that weapon with one hand (or other grasper). It stands to reason that 1H >= 2H, so 1H is coloured red when that isn't the case. Creature size depends on species and has some variation. See http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2012:Weapon under "Size" for more details on this. Mat. is MATERIAL_SIZE. It is responsible for how many bars get used to make that item and how many get produced when smelting it. An item will typically rexuire max{1, floor(MATERIAL_SIZE/3)} bars to make (so 1 for 1-5, 2 for 6-8, 3 for 9-11 and so on) and yield MATERIAL_SIZE*0.3 bars when melted. Note, however, that this is just the usual ammount, there ARE anomallies in Vanilla and mods can introduce custom reactions to make items that use different (amounts of) materials than what you might expect from this value. Stone Allows the weapon to be made at a craftsdwarf's workshop from a sharp ([MAX_EDGE:10000] or higher) stone (e.g. obsidian) plus a wooden log. Train menas this is a training weapon, can only be made of wood and therefore will be ineffective in combat. Shoot force is the amount of force used when firing projectiles - actual velocity and kinetic energy are determined by the projectile's mass. Max velocity is the cap on projectile velocity when fired from this weapon. For small or otherwise light projectiles, this is the value that matters. There are also some irregularities from rounding. See http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116151.msg3716892#msg3716892 Civs are the civilisations that have this item on embark and craftable, usually at the forge. Civilisations playable in Fortress Mode are highlighted green. Civilisations playable in adventure mode are in bold font. Everything listed after R is made in a custom reaction. This only takes into account the possibility, so if you have a reaction "open crate" that produces a no-quality revolver 4% of the time, it still counts as craftable. (A) means the item can be crafted in adventure mode. If this is empty, no one has access to this item. Unless I missed something, in which case let me know. Attack lists all the attacks that can be made with this weapon. The attack is always chosen at random, with edged attacks being 100 times more likely. The format is name, type (edged or blunt), contact area, penetration, velocity multiplier. It can be shortened with --shortattack option.   Blunt attacks are better at penetrating armour and breaking bones, while edged attacks can cause bleeding, pierce internal organs or even sever entire limbs. Edged attacks become piercing attacks when their contact area is less than 25% of the targeted body part or cutting attacks otherwise. So edged attacks with large contact area are primarily cutting, while those with 10 or 20 contact area are primarily piercing. Piercing attacks are better at penetrating armour and damaging internal organs (such as brain), but Cutting attacks can cut off entire limbs. The problem with cutting attacks is that there needs to be enough force behind them and enemy armour can convert them to blunt attacks, which tend to be much less effective.   The higher the penetration is, the better, especially against bigger enemies. My best guess is that 10000 penetration is 1m.  Velocity multipler greatly increases effectiveness of an attack, multiplying the force behind it.   If an attack is listed as FIXME, it means it doesn't conform to standard attack RAWs and the modder should fix it. It may still work, though.   Rating and comparing attacks isn't trivial to do and is on the "nice to have features" list.

Together with material density and weapon's shoot force this determines kinetic energy of the projectile, which is also capped by weapon's max velocity. Class is the type of ammo listed in ranged weapons table. Attack See notes under weapons. Of course when a projectile hits, an attack from the projectile and not the weapon is applied to the target. The weapon can influence it's power through shoot force and max velocity, though. Table of trap components: (count: 6)   Name  ID Size  Mat.

Chance to hit by a weapon trap is affected by the quality of mechanism and possibly the quality of the weapon. In a retracting spike trap, probably just the weapon quality counts. Size, Material size, Attack: see notes under weapons. Screw means it may be installed in a screw pump. Spike means it may be installed in a spike trap. Metal, Wood mean that the trap component may be made out of metal or wood, respectively. If none of them apply, it is probably a product of some custom reaction. Hits is the number of attacks by this weapon when a trap is triggered. There can be up to 10 weapons in a trap, so this can add up to quite a lot of overkill. Hits also multiply the value of the trap component, which is why serrated discs and spiked balls are so expensive. NOTES: Printing tables of toys and tools was considered, but toys, instruments and so on, aren't that interesting. They have ID, name and value. Tools can have attacks and uses, but can't be equipped by soldiers. Listing the names of backpacks, mining carts, etc. is not that interesting. Known bugs: * Item craftability by civilisations does not take into account availiable materials or if the produced item gains quality. * Syndromes from weapon and ammo from special materials are out of scope for this script. * There is an unspoken assumption that entities, items and reactions are in separate files. If they aren't, some may be skipped by this script. * You can give feedback or request features here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=126953.0

Does anyone still play this?

[RoguelikesESP]

De hell?

[Graknorke]

De hell?

tahujdt bumped the thread to ask if anyone still plays the mod. That's all that happened.

[the1337doofus]

Does anyone still play this?

Ooo! Mememememem! I do! I do!

[Destyvirago]

Does anyone still play this?

I still do. One of the best mods for DF ever.

[the1337doofus]

So, did Lycaeon drop the mod? Or is it simply taking a while?

He said, he was to busy to continue and asked for one of us to try and keep working on it instead. There were a few minor alterations and suggestions, but no one stepped up.

Well, bollocks. At least I know that now, thanks mate.
