Well that's annoying. Is there any workaround to that?
Create an intermediate stone that instantly melts and leaves back the philosophers stone? Anything (non DF-Hack related)?

I suppose, you could use a [MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:ALCHEMY:PHILOSOPHERS_STONE] or suchlike for the reagents in that one reaction, with the product derived from a [GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:(and-so-forth...)] without directly specifying the real philosopher's stone for that reaction.  It's clunky and pretty silly, but that seems to work.

Noble questions:
What are the numbers for required rooms for nobles for specific levels of room (e.g. fine, royal, adequate)? What does the [REQUIRES_MARKET] tag in certain nobles do? And does the [REPLACED_BY] tag work on elected nobles?

[Putnam]

Well that's annoying. Is there any workaround to that?

Yes, the [SPECIAL] tag precludes this from happening, as can be seen with adamantine.

I've seen [SPECIAL] materials show up with caravans, but not [DEEP_SPECIAL] ones.  That was in .34.11, it might be fixed now.

[Putnam]

It was fixed in 0.40.06 or thereabouts.

[Dirst]

It was fixed in 0.40.06 or thereabouts.

Welcome news indeed!

No more figures made out of stone that boils away at sub-zero temperatures.

are tag's broken if on different lines?

Say a

[Object:
Creature]

and

[Creature:Elephant] vs
[Creature:    Elephant]

or

[Creature:
 Elephant]

Just want to verify if whitepsace are counted, or if it's just inbetween the [brackets] that count.

[Roses]

Does anyone know what the defaults are for

Code: [Select]

[LOW_LIGHT_VISION:#]
[VISION_ARC:#:#]
[SMELL_TRIGGER:#]?

[Knight Otu]

Low light vision should be 0 for the human norm (lowest otherwise is goblins with 100). Smell trigger is 50, I'm quite certain, same with odor level. No idea about vision arc.

try doing that with one creature and see how the raw file performs, if it errors it doesnt work that way, i personally haven't tried as I assume the tokens to be  limited to one line.
(I assume he wrote a text parser for parsing them, so its a pretty good bet that they only work on a per-line basis), of course knowing toady he could have put in the time to code it that way. Every time ive written text parser I only had it working on a perline basis, im lazy that way.

[thistleknot]

apparently it doesn't error, but it also doesn't work.

I copied the human to human2 and did a

[creature:
human2]

and tried to create him in the arena, and doesn't list.

I made sure I appended caste name and game name to human2 as well, just the regular old human shows up.

I only asked because I want to parse some files and that may have an affect on things.

I think the game is just skipping the broken object in this case.  I would imagine it would do the same with other broken [tag]'s.

Aside from corpses, when is a creature's CREATURE_TILE used in favor of its graphic?

[BlackFlyme]

Aside from corpses, when is a creature's CREATURE_TILE used in favor of its graphic?

All I know other than corpses are engravings and when the creature is in a cage. The cage will periodically change from the normal cage tile and the creature tile.

Thank you.

[Doren]

Need help.
I want to sort mineral lists by groups like in MDF, ie. economic stones are split into ores/flux/misc, and worthless are split in magmasafe/common.
But im totally clueless on how to do that in 0.40 DF
