A shrewd man he was, in that case. Can interactions summon creatures, though?

Not directly, unfortunately.

You can resurrect corpses and force them to transform into a different creature though.

You can force transformations on creatures right?
What if I turned the children into rats?

Edit: Flesh eating rats.

You can force a transformation on living creatures just fine.

The only problem is that they will not follow you like a zombie would, and you cannot restrict a transformation to children. Plus the creature that they transform into will have to either be [CRAZED] or [OPPOSED_TO_LIFE], otherwise they will still act the same to others around them, since they will retain their civilization affiliations.

Yes please. I want to do this. PM me when it's my turn to mod. Then be "amazed" when you come back with walking trees, thousands of fish and fish related creatures, exploding stills ( if it's possible without DFHack), and many other amazing things. ( New mats, new abilities, etc. etc. ) Danke schoen.

Also, no exploding stills please. We're still trying to fix the exploding trade wagons and the exploding pretty much anything else.

If we use material emission, could we then transform the material into a creature?

I think that the next version might make some sort of mind controlling creature more possible, incidentally.

Does that mean male hydras... oh god dammit.

Materials aren't creatures and syndrome interactions can literally only be used on creatures, so no.

Also DF don't have no 'splosions, just things what resemble them slightly (I.E evaporations).

Fine, then just a pressure induced meltdown event causing the still to deconstruct and vomit booze everywhere. It's not like I meant for the stills to just explode, I meant to add a booze pressure stat to where one can't overuse a still or bad things happen.

@HugoLuman:Yeah. I figured. :/ Still would've been cool.

Anyways, if we're not doing turns, how are we doing this?

Avoid editing the previous files or you may fuck up the current WIP additions.
