And kangaroo hair thread can be spun, but cannot be stockpiled or traded.  Or woven, as far as I can tell.  Can be dumped.

Vanilla "feature". It can still be used for suturing or artifacts, IIRC.

Thanks, Arc, wasn't sure if this was vanilla or MW.  Hard to use for anything without stockpiling though.  Guess I'd have to forbid everything else. Easier to destroy it via dfhack.  Not undersupplied with other threads.

Banner and Poison Cookery have same hotkey on workshops menu (ctrl-b)

I don't know if this is a vanilla issue or MW:

I grew some hide root from seed, got plants successfully.  Then I milled them using mill specific plant at a quern.  The bold hauled plants there, grabbed a bag, and went to work.  All the plants were processed.  Now I am left with no dye from the plants, and no seeds.  Should have bold based on legacy experience.

It's the only dye seed I can get that will grow here, so can't test others at the moment.

[vonsch]

I see a wooden training dagger for bolds, but the training room doesn't allow training daggers.  Considering bold proclivities, and size, I'd think daggers would be top pick. 

The can train wrestling, which I think interacts with knives, but no knife fighting skill that daggers use. 

Sword training is actual swords, or at least calls for a wooden training sword.

[vonsch]

I retested the hide root dye issue and had the same thing happen.  When milled, no dye and no seeds.  Empty bag left in quern.

And I tested with the plain mill plants and that worked fine. So it's the reaction to mill specific dye plants that's the problem.

Hide root is the only dye plant I have access to so can't see if it's specific to that plant or it's the general reaction.

What would one need to do to give kobolds the ability to turn the Sandy/silty Clay/loam into their constituent components as the dwarves do? Would love this ability, cause it seems something kobolds should be able to do as well as Dwarves

[Meph]

Its already enabled in their entity file, you just need to add a kobold building to the reactions... they are the bottom ones in reaction_dwarf_civ.txt.

Currently the reactions are only in the pottery...

Grahhh...Any way I can get assistance on how to do this? Probably would want them added into the Kiln or Clay Shaper. I've only a vague idea how to change the files to put in a building, but after 2 hours of trying to no avail I kinda gave up. @-@

when you have a reaction in reaction_dwarf_civ.txt

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

[REACTION:CLEAN_SILT]
   [NAME:Clean up silt]
   [DESCRIPTION:Takes a silt boulder grinds it into dust, destroying it.]
   [DESCRIPTION:]
   [DESCRIPTION:Uses pottery skill.]
   [BUILDING:POTTERY:CUSTOM_ALT_B]
   [REAGENT:silt:1:BOULDER:NONE:INORGANIC:SILT]
      [SKILL:POTTERY]

You need to add another BUILDING entry to that.

I don't play kobolds so I am not sure which is which, but perhaps you mean one of the following:
[BUILDING:BRICKOVEN_KOBOLD:NONE]
[BUILDING:POTTERY:NONE]
[BUILDING:WORKSHOP_KOBOLD:NONE]

NONE stand for key shortcut.

Paste the one of the above you like under the existing [BUILDING] entry in the reactions you would like to have in reaction_dwarf_civ.txt and you should be good.

Generating a new world might be necessary (but maybe not - paste that file into your savegame/raw/objects and see if it works without worldgen).

Which reminds me I should mod wooden mechanisms back into masterwork

Cool, I'll get on that in the morn. Also Kobolds have a reaction for Wooden Mechanisms in the Trapsetter, if you were looking.

I was searching around and couldn't find anyou information on spiritwalking.... what does it do? what does it use(doesn't seem to require anything)?

[Arcvasti]

IIRC[I've never actually tried it], Spiritwalking forces a strange mood to happen.

[Meph]

Correct, it starts a strange mood.

[Meph]

And a little addition for kobold mode... 32x32 sprites.

[Sponge]

I don't understand, how do I steal from other races? Also, where is the Totem? And finally, how am I suppose to make pots for workshops? Am I suppose to go mining for metal?
