I know that ice can't normally be used in normal crafting besides building some constructions but is there a way to set up a custom reaction to use ice as a regnant and the materiel the product is made out of?  Or possibly setting up a different custom reaction for ice as a regnant to be converted into a useable stone type?

Ice as in frozen water would melt into a puddle in non-freezing biomes, pretty much instantly though. You might want to define some kind of Nevermeltice-type inorganic as a workaround.

I was planning on that also, to convert ice into special black ice that wont melt in higher temperatures.
But wanting to use ice as a regret stems from a custom race/creature I made that is built to live in the tundra and build fortresses inside of glaciers thus having a lot of ice laying around needing to be used for something.

I assume the [DIVINE_MAT_ ] tags for entities can't be used in user-defined raws.
However, the wiki doesn't say they can't, unlike [GENERATED].
So, has anyone found out if that's valid for non-internal data?

Knowing this would be helpful.

Anyone done much playing around with the entity VALUE tokens yet? I'm curious how much of an effect they have.

I'm hoping I'll have all of them in for my various races tonight, so I may be able to provide some additional information on how they effect world gen and various civ interactions soon myself.

They can change dreams, for one.

That would make sense, since a large volume of dwarves want to make a masterwork ([VALUE:CRAFTSMANSHIP:50]).
I plan to fiddle with it.

If I wanted something to breathe web would this work?

   [CDI:WEB_SPRAY]


Also how would I give something a tentacle attack?

[Putnam]

Giant Cave Spiders tell you exactly how to do web spray.

The interaction used to make a creature spray web is called MATERIAL_EMISSION

You could just copy the giant cave spider's ability:

Code: [Select]

[CAN_DO_INTERACTION:MATERIAL_EMISSION]
[CDI:ADV_NAME:Spray web]
[CDI:USAGE_HINT:ATTACK]
[CDI:BP_REQUIRED:BY_TOKEN:LB]
[CDI:MATERIAL:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:SILK:WEB_SPRAY]
[CDI:TARGET:C:LINE_OF_SIGHT]
[CDI:TARGET_RANGE:C:5]
[CDI:MAX_TARGET_NUMBER:C:1]
[CDI:WAIT_PERIOD:30]
Just make sure the creature actually has a material in their raws called silk.

To make an attack use a tentacle, you would likely use
[ATTACK:ID:BODYPART:BY_CATEGORY:TENTACLE]

Though it may depend on the specific body part used. The vanilla tentacles use CATEGORY:TENTACLE

What tag prevents dwarves from settling in Evil/Good areas? I want to create a totally evil world but I can't find anything in the Entity raws that allows goblins to settle evil areas but not other civilizations.

What tag prevents dwarves from settling in Evil/Good areas? I want to create a totally evil world but I can't find anything in the Entity raws that allows goblins to settle evil areas but not other civilizations.

To settle in evil biomes, you need one of these tags:

Code: [Select]

[USE_EVIL_ANIMALS]
[USE_EVIL_PLANTS]
[USE_EVIL_WOOD]
and likewise [USE_GOOD_ANIMALS] etc. for good biomes.

This will also let you tame any animal with EVIL or GOOD, depending on the token, including trolls.

I did not know that... I always assumed it was the EVIL or GOOD tag on the creature itself.

Or at least, I think, that's how it works. I always get my swamp-fairy civ to settle in good biomes, even if they don't have the [GOOD] on the creature itself.

Hey guys, this new DF update is amazing.

I started updating my custom race, so it would work again.
Sadly since I changed a lot of skill rates. ex:turned them all off.
My characters could no longer learn to climb! : (
anyways I tried to use what I thought the token would be, like:

CLIMB
CLIMBER

From what I could tell these are not the climber skill token.
Did I miss something or am I wrong?

EDIT
Facepalm sorry guys I figured it out....
It was CLIMBING all along >.>
