I recently attempted to create a new species with a breath attack that would cause the victim to vomit blood, but each time i go to test it on a variety of animals, the subject either -
A. Has no affect, message "*animal* is caught in a cloud of gnomey n/a vapor!"
or B. Subject is covered in an acidic substance and burns/bleeds to death with the same message

Here's the codes im using
For the attack thinger
[CAN_DO_INTERACTION:MATERIAL_EMISSION]
      [CDI:ADV_NAME:Breathe Stuff]
      [CDI:USAGE_HINT:ATTACK]
      [CDI:BP_REQUIRED:BY_CATEGORY:MOUTH]
      [CDI:MATERIAL:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:gnomey_gas:TRAILING_VAPOR_FLOW]
      [CDI:TARGET:C:LINE_OF_SIGHT]
      [CDI:TARGET_RANGE:C:15]
      [CDI:MAX_TARGET_NUMBER:C:1]
      [CDI:WAIT_PERIOD:15]

For the syndrome
  [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:POISON:CREATURE_EXTRACT_TEMPLATE]
       [STATE_NAME:ALL_SOLID:frozen gnomey gas]
       [STATE_ADJ:ALL_SOLID:frozen gnomey gas]
       [STATE_NAME:LIQUID:gnomey gas]
       [STATE_ADJ:LIQUID:gnomey gas]
       [STATE_NAME:GAS:boiling gnomey gas]
       [STATE_ADJ:GAS:boiling gnomey gas]
       [PREFIX:NONE]
       [SYNDROME]
           [SYN_NAME:gnomey gas]
           [SYN_AFFECTED_CLASS:GENERAL_POISON]
           [SYN_IMMUNE_CREATURE:GNOMIES:ALL]
           [SYN_CONTACT]
           [CE_VOMIT_BLOOD:SEV:100:PROB:100:RESISTABLE:SIZE_DILUTES:START:5:PEAK:10:END:20]

Any suggestions as to how i could modify this to achieve desired result?

[Putnam]

you want LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:POISON, not LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:gnomey_gas.

Thank you, but im still getting the problem where the subject does not experience the syndrome, it only covers them, solution?

Gas syndromes are not applied on CONTACT, but when INHALED.

SYN_INHALED
