Nice cleanup Dirst, I'll use that one.

I also added orientation in my local. Creatures spawn asexual so animals will have the 'marry' flag for the opposite sex as true and intelligent creatures will be based on raws. I think we are getting to the stability of the 0.34 version of this script.

i fixed a line in the code I posted above (it was really really late).

Asexual creatures don't matter in my case since I'm using it to spawn genderless creatures, but we are trying for something of general usefulness.

Excellent work on spawn-unit. I'll take a look at it this weekend if I can and polish it up a bit and try fix the rest of the problems for civ members and such.

When using gm-editor to view a prepared meal, in ingredients.item_foodst.T_ingredients:<numbers>, there is a variable called unk_10. That variable controls the quality of the individual ingredients.

Why is it "unknown mode" instead of "Dwarf Fortress"?

[lethosor]

That's one of my scripts (so this thread would be more appropriate). I'm assuming that's an unretired fortress, which is a game type new to 0.40.xx that that script doesn't yet recognize. You can run "load-screen disable" to check if you'd like.

Second, syndrome-trigger doesn't seem to be able to find named syndromes defined in regional interactions.  I don't know how to use a regional interaction to apply a syndrome defined in a material.  Is there an event I could hook into instead that would fire when a creature (preferably a certain type) appears on the map?

I was looking around the Lua API, and it sounds like Eventful's onSyndrome callback might be able to hear stuff done by regional interactions.  Anyone happen to know if it's just the same interface that syndrome-trigger uses?

Thanks!

Come to think of it, is there a command or something to change a regional interaction?

Say an evil biome has thralling clouds, could you change the clouds into say.....skin necroses? Maybe healing for good biomes?

I was just thinking of creating a trade helper but stuck on finding a function that returns an item's trade value. So long I just found a function that returns an item's base value, and two functions that returns an item's improvements value and dye value in trade respectively. And a struct that seemingly contains a caravan's trade value modifiers, but which I can't fathom its meaning. Am I missing anything here?

The various skills involved in assessing value and negotiating for said value, the mental attributes associated with said skills/involved directly, the presence of an accidentally activated pressure washing system, uh, I assume the trade value modifiers are the stuff requested for next year right?

Oh dear, that's a hell of an idea, though I think that stuff is a pain to hack that directly, much less permanently.

Ughhh... I think I'll just shelve it until I've got time to do !!SCIENCE!! with that. And thanks.
On another note, does anyone know how to do binary search on a sorted vector? (namely, df.global.world.plants.* vectors). There is a binary search function in utils.lua but it only supports lua functions as comparators and the vectors are sorted by address. My current workaroud is to use tostring(element) to get a string containing the elements' addresses but I fear such a filthy workaround could break at any time.

onSyndrome should detect anything, including syndromes added by other scripts.

df.(type).find(id)

df.(type).find(id)

Nope, that function expects a number as parameter and treat it as the index or the id. What I want to do is to find a specific object inside a vector sorted by its element's memory address...

[Putnam]

Why exactly would you want that?

(Trying to make sure there's no easier way to do what you want)

[lethosor]

Do you mean the index of an object inside of a vector?
