What do you mean permitted building?

[StagnantSoul]

Go into "entity_default" and under dwarves, you'll see [PERMITTED_REACTION:MAKE_PEARLASH" and such. Scroll down until you find a section where there's [PERMITTED_BUILDING:blah]. This is above the permitted reactions. Add in [PERMITTED_BUILDING:ALCHEMY_SHOP] and gen a new world.

[Urist McCoder]

Thank you.

What file do you find animal people in like lizard men? I want to make a lizard man society.

[BlackFlyme]

They can be found in various different files, usually near their normal counterparts.

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?

I guess they need a bodypart that has the GRASP tag.
Example tentacles:

I recommend you install a programmer's text editor that has "search for string in all of a folder's files" also known as "Find in files".
Notepad++ and Crimson Editor / Emerald Editor are good ones. Notepad++ is at http://notepad-plus-plus.org/
Then search for eg. "men:" to find all the animal men species.

You couldn't hold weapons with no grasp, pretty sure they can still climb as well, but for some reason you can get a situation where you only have access to normal wresting grabs while holding weapons. I recall there being something weird when I was trying to add in or remove wings.

What is the point of "item_food.txt"? It doesn't affect the hard-coded kitchen reactions (removing them makes the reactions silently fail), and there doesn't seem to be much to do beyond that.

[Putnam]

It does affect those, though. Try adding a new one.

The point is to add flavor to the world. Some mods you'd want modern cuisine like burger, cake, kebab, salad, snack, meatballs, fries, jelly, pizza, pie, wrap, marinade, dumplings, muffins.
Other worlds you'd want old stuff like palt, steak, mash, porridge, lumps, stew, strips, slices, sauce pie, sausage, roll.

a GRASP part is needed for wrestling, and it must be connected to the UPPERBODY. I've had an oddity of a 2 piece bodied creature (Head + UPPERBODY/LOWERBODY) and it's legs (except feet) which of course had LIMB where being used to wrestle because the arms connected to the UPPERBODY as well.

It is the UPPERBODY that determins what is used to wrestle with based on connected LIMBs and if a LIMB chain has a GRASP

[WillowLuman]

Can you define attacks on shields?

[BlackFlyme]

Not at the moment, no.

Hi there, i want to mod in a few civilizations. Four would make me really happy. One being a tougher version of goblins that sieges later than them (and goblin sieges available earlier, like 50~ ish dwarves rather than 80). I'd also like to make the tougher goblin race bring Giant Desert Scorpions into battle, as mounts if possible. the megabeasts minotaurs made into a civilization with access to steel and iron equipment to wear into battle, and an undead race that are similiar to necromancer tower undead, and a Civilization of Dragons, who would siege the fortress together. Wearing steel armor preferably to make them harder to kill

How would i go about these, are there specific wiki pages and videos around that would teach me how to make this happen? Are there any tips you can offer about things its harder to learn with the wiki?

I essentially want to make a mod that cranks up the difficulty of invasions significantly that doesn't rely on finding towers on the map (since it makes world gens extremely long to try to encourage more towers by setting the year to 1050).

At the moment i only have a very basic grasp on the raws, the most ive done is changing dragons to be taken at embark by modifying a few tags, and making them mature in 10 years rather than 1000 so i could actually see them mature. That's about the level im at haha
