Using v.4 it does not appear as if there is a create pylon type reaction in the Soul Siphon as the manual says.  Was it moved to another building?

[Meph]

My mistake.

[PERMITTED_REACTION:BUILD_PYLON] is missing from the entity file. Just add it to the entity_warlock_civ and gen a new world.

If you want pylons now, mark a unit with 'v', then go the dfhack and type: "spawn CRYSTAL 0 Pylon", without the "". It will spawn a pylon for you.

I'm liking the sound of the spike and skin decorations. A dreadnought-clad skeleton with one of those will look badass. I'm wondering if the decorations, being contaminants will be removed with the "clean all" dfhack command. Since I use that command a TON normally and will probably have to use it more if Warlocks are as carnage dependent as they seem, won't that make contaminant style upgrade to items impractical, if you want to conserve FPS via the "clean all" command?

[Meph]

clean all should be fine. You can clean the specific item, but I think clean all doesnt cause any problems with this.

Phew, I'm glad that doesn't conflict. This just made my kobold fort 10x cleaner since I was afraid to clean items in fear of erasing my hexed orichalcum weapons.

EDIT: Just had an idea about the pylon thing: What if there were dwarven priest enemies or something that temporarily un-powered pylons within a certain radius? Like you had a pylon network 1 z-level below the surface to let your skeletons run rampant over the surface. And then in battle, the enemy disables them to wreak havoc. It'd sort of solve the exploit of putting just barely underground pylons to control the surface. Plus it'd add a bit more difficulty to the slightly overpowered warlocks.

Add Spatter

This plugin makes reactions with names starting with SPATTER_ADD_ produce contaminants on the items instead of improvements. The produced contaminants are immune to being washed away by water or destroyed by the clean items command.

Ooh, pylons. I sort of want to make a Warlock Nexus now.

So do ghouls still use whips and scourges?

[Meph]

yes. flails and scourges, actually, using the whip skill.

Was playing with v.4 and was having issues getting anyone to make a traction bench to build the torture chamber.  Tried ghoul, skeleton and lock with no luck.

[Vabalokis]

Traction bench is hardcoded, Mechanics, as always. No way I can influence that.

I just want to write this down before I forget it.

Dungeon for prisoners. They transform into a generic "prisoner" creature with grazing, and slowly starve to death. If they die, you get a skeleton.

They can be brought to the torture chamber before that happens, and tortured for information. If they die, you get a ghost.

you can also corrupt them, and you get a ghoul.

Something along these lines. Straight from dungeon keeper.
