Then if I find a way to make the lower level castes only wield staffs would you mind me editting them to do so?

And which castes do you want to have wield staffs it so?

The ones with bodies. They are identifiable by having genders.

Well, my idea was that the mecha-using race would be a very isolated civ (at most 2 civs per world), with a low population cap. The mecha would be extremely rare and the species it would be a part of would appear only in savage forests (a la Überwald/generic mad scientist country). The mechs themselves would appear as 1 in 4500 (that's total chance of mechs, each variant would be 1 in 450000) of the species' population.

So your chances of ever encountering one of these, even in legends mode, is pretty much zero. And the adherents are probably a greater threat, even to the mecha (which have a [THOUGHT] token and in some cases [NERVOUS]).

Or you could put them in the third cavern layer.

Could I specify both a specific biome and the cavern layer? If so, what results would that have?
If not, let's put it to a vote. Both ideas sound good, so I have no idea which to choose.

I don't think you can specify an aboveground biome and a cavern layer unless you have the creature on "underground depth" 0, and I'm pretty sure you can't double up on underground depth tokens.

Dirigible Antelope has to be the best/worst idea for a creature ever.

Weird, all I get is messages about the gas bag having been damaged. I can't even let them fight...whatever weak creatures we currently have, if any, because they usually do so seconds after I've spawned them, upon which they die from either height or some unknown cause.

"Skin ashes"?  :o Shouldn't that be "lift gas"?

I plan to try to fix up the dirigible antelope if I get the chance.

I just wonder who messed with them in the first place. Because "skin ashes" isn't right.

I just found a night creature and it was offended when I called it a night creature.

Wouldnt you be offended if you were say, ugly, and someone called you ugly?

Night creatures are just funny trolls.
