What happens if there are two entities with the same adventure tier?

The duplicates are sorted by which comes first in the file instead.

Hello, i would like some precision about the VISION_ARC token , on the wiki the only information i find is
Quote
The width of the creature's vision arcs. The first number is binocular vision, the second is non-binocular vision.
I'm not sure of the meaning of "non-binocular vision", does that mean it is the radius that the creature can still "see" out of its eyes radius or does it mean the radius the creature is unable to see at all in this radius ?
Are those values meaning "binocular vision" is the radius in front of the creature while the "non-binocular" vision is the radius in the back of the creature (so the game know which direction the thing is looking at) ?

Very few creatures have a VISION_ARC token, and most of the ones i see with such token have
[VISION_ARC:50:310]
That i notice the total of both values being 360, does that mean that the total of both values must -always- be 360 ? So in case i was to make a creature able to see 360 degree around, should i use as i seem to understand :
[VISION_ARC:360:0]
or am i wrong and it should be :
[VISION_ARC:360:360]
?
And what are the default value for this token, as the wiki do not mention them ?

Binocular vision is the cone of accurate and clear sight using both eyes to construct the image, while non-binocular is "the corner of your eyes" where you only see something with one or the other and the image is not as clear.

Ah thanks i see more binocularly now :D
Though i doubt it is applying in the DF context in which either something see you or it does not from the ingame cone of vision that is either limited in angle or is full 360 (for undead and other procedural stuff, as i don't see any example of 360 degree arc vision in the raws)

Still unsure then if it should be
[VISION_ARC:360:0]
in case the sum of both number -must- be 360 or if it does not matter and
[VISION_ARC:360:360]
may work the same

Is it possible to set up a reaction to randomly produce one of a set many items?

How do gaits work and how do they interact with the whole STANDARD_QUADRUPED_GAITS thing and such?

An item of a type found in the raws can be randomly selected for by leaving out the item subtype ID. Otherwise no, with an exception for CRAFTS(or something like that)

How do gaits work and how do they interact with the whole STANDARD_QUADRUPED_GAITS thing and such?
The STANDARD_X_GAITS are c_variations that apply gaits and the first one in the raw file explains all of the tokens in a comment. !ARGx is like body detail plans, they are the variables you put after the c_var GAITS. The objects/notes/gaits.txt has a list of mph or kph to gait format.

If you use a single ammo as a reagent in a reaction, will the reaction consume the entire stack, or just a single instance out of it?

Used to be entire stacks, but I do not know now. It may have been fixed when bones were, but I haven't done any testing.

If I give a playable civ no instances of a certain type of clothing except an armor one, will civilians put it on on their own? Say for example giving them only helmets. I remember in the old version when I did that characters would spawn wearing them, but I didn't get far enough to see if like kids would put them on and such.

It may be intentional, neither fixable nor a bug.
