How would I go about making by tarpaulin blocks called just "tarpaulins"?

There's no way to get rid of that suffix without digging into the executable itself. However, the [BLOCK_NAME:xyz] token will let you rename it into tarpaulin sheets or whatever makes sense to you.

Adding the tag [BLOCK_NAME:] to the tarp material without any arguments in it may leave it blank, leaving the block as just "tarpaulin ", with an extra space at the end.

Is there any way to make a creature fire immune through a syndrome? I tried putting in the FIREIMMUNE tag but it returns the error Unsupported CE add tag

FIREIMMUNE is not a valid tag for syndromes. The valid tags are the same as the interaction token IT_REQUIRES arguments.

You could use a transformation syndrome to turn the creature into another creature that is immune to fire, I suppose.

What kind of tool do you all use in 0.40 to look at randomly generated raws? One would be really helpful right about now.

Right now? Putnam's got your back.

How do I specify multiple reagents where any of the reagents can be used, but not all of them are required?

How do I use the tool? I know how to run it but what do I put in after that?

...nothing. It should generate a neat pile of text files in your root folder.

I type 'lua', then I type 'get_generated_raws', then it asks me for something else. What is the something else?

You don't need to run it through the interpreter. Just save it as $stuff.lua and punch in "$stuff" to operate.

Oh, thanks.

EDIT: Nope. I'm terrible at this. What folder do I put it in?

DF\hack\scripts. Just right there, among all the other .lua files, in basic unformatted ASCII text.

I'm pretty sure there's nothing else that can go wrong

How do I specify ANY type of stone? The wiki says that if I use NONE, the game will think I specified magma.

EDIT: question two, is there a way to specify all cloth items in reactions, as well?
