Hey, can I make a creature only spawn in a volcano?

I think that the closest you can get is having them live in the magma sea, and hoping that one of them will swim up into the volcano.

Ehh... I guess that could work. I'll just look at magma crabs then.

I was looking through the modding guide on the wiki and there doesn't seem to be item tokens for trade goods (crafts and totems, maybe some others). are they hard-coded?

I think i figured it out now; they all have subtype `NONE`

Edit: Maybe I'm still confused though, there doesn't seem to be an 'item definition token' for these types? Does that mean you can't create new ones?

Look at the token listings. Chewing up the information yourself does you good.

I think this is the list that has me confused:

http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Item_definition_token

Can you still define a new item without giving it an item definition token? E.G. a new tradegood type that can be produced either as a random craft or a separate job, plus the ability to stockpile?

If it is not listed there, it cannot be made. The wiki is completely comprehensive there.

You cannot define a new item type or stockpiling category. Crafts are hardcoded and you cannot make a new one. You can however define a new toy, instrument or tool.

Toys and instruments are randomly made with the 'make toy/instrument' job, you can also define reactions for that, but you'll have to define it for every kind of material you want to use.

Tools have their separate action.

How do create a reaction that produces a caste of your species. So that I give the workshop 15 iron and get an automatan, which is a caste of my species.

You cannot do that without dfhack's spawnunit and currently there is a blocking bug I haven't figured out yet.

Hey, how would I make my custom workshop look a bit more like a forge? With an anvil in the top right, a chair replacing the bars of soap, and a table on the middle right?

Here's the building.

Why can't I build this building in fort mode it has the right headings, and there is nothing in the error log?

After [BUILDING_blah_blah_blah] put tabs in front of everything, and make sure it's a permitted building for the entity.

So, I successfully made a creature which successfully creates civilizations and whatnot.

One problem, when I'm adventuring as one and I try to wrestle something, I cannot use my hands or any part of my arms.
How do I fix this?
