I've been trying to remove/reduce butchery products. It seems that every single body part and organ is removed and prepared despite my best attempts.
I tried to add [BUTCHER_SPECIAL:STONE:WHITE_GAS] to all the appropriate tissues,(WHITE_GAS uses a boiling rock template) This results in meat rocks, as it does not appear that the game is giving it the proper material.
Anyone know any workarounds to this?

Hello Forum,

just one small question: How do I enable certain pets and embark items for certain entities?

Say, I create a kind of "Golem-Pet", that only my modded Metal Dwarves, but not my Stone Dwarves are supposed to get?
The same goes for special weapons and the like.

On a second topic; how do I prevent items from showing up on embark? Like the legendary weapon my dwarves can craft (with a low chance) shouldn't be selectable, of course.

Third question (while I am at it  :D): Is it possible to let a reaction in a workshop produce either product Aor Product B?

Thank you in advance.

Pets you can't. Items shouldn't be selectable unless you specifically enable them in the entity. Exclusive products aren't possible.

Couple problems with this.  First of all, it's supposed to take an ITEM token, not a material token. I.e. ITEM:ITEM_SUB_TYPE, so there's no place to specify material. The material is just the material you are putting the token in. The second field is item subtype, which stone doesn't have one of, so it gets ignored.

Secondly, BUTCHER_SPECIAL is currently bugged anyway. So even if it were an item with a subtype, like TOOL:ITEM_TOOL_LADLE, it would not actually give you meat ladles. It would instead randomly choose a item subtype. Like randomly make meat ladles, meat cauldrons, meat large pots, etc.

I was just going through and updating my offline wiki when I saw NO_GENDER, and it's in my old wiki too. Was there a point in this tag because I thought leaving [MALE][FEMALE] out was enough to make it genderless?

Does anyone have the raws for some of the new demons? If so, can you post the raws for an organic and an inorganic one, please?

I have extracted raws for 0.40.01 creatures, but they shouldn't have changed much. I'll edit some demons in in a bit.

Spoiler: inorganic demon (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: organic (click to show/hide)

It will correctly identify the creature as genderless and referr to the creature as "it". I guess you also don't risk strange bugs with breeding by using it.

Actually, I believe NO_GENDER is mostly a legacy token. It's not used in the standard raws, such as for the bronze colossus, though it is used in the generated raws. I guess you can use it to remove genders from selected castes if you have a complex caste setup.

I use it as a placeholder for the other gender tags.

How involved a process would it be to have the above-ground animal people behave more like kobolds/above-ground-versions-of-subterranean-animal-people?

I assume I'd have to create an entity type and add all the above-ground animal people to it, give them some weapons, have them live in caves like kobolds do etc? If I wanted to have, say, two to three out of the possible types per world and no other above-ground animal people types I could give them a max starting civ number of 2/3? Would I also have to remove population and frequency information from their creature raws to make sure the ones not selected as civilizations are not put into the world as creatures?

I am trying to give a creature scales on certain limbs, and I keep getting this error:
Code: [Select]

From what I can tell, I typed something there wrong, but I don't know what.
Here is the section of the creature RAWs that I believe has something wrong:

The first problem is that it doesn't have a tail; the second is that I'm not sure if LWING and RWING are the correct categories (I think the category might just be WING, while those two are tokens, so you want BY_TOKEN if you want those; or you could just use BY_CATEGORY:WING)
