What the fuck have I just been reading.

I have the same reaction to your avatar.

Finally! Someone who notices the weirdness of Graknorkes avatar! Where is it from anyway?

Oglaf has me both reaching for the brain bleach and hitting the next page button.
I think that means its good.

indeed it does

[Foxite]

I wonder if there's a new personality trait in dwarves that determines if they are OK with gay dwarves. Lol.

[tuypo1]

its worth noting that when the elf queen takes a wife the wife is called princess not queen which leads me to think its intentional

It is quite addictive, is it not?

It is completely intentional. A previous thread discussing the implementation and mechanics (including a word or two from Toady) can be found here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=140479.msg5472587#msg5472587

I was wondering if there is some way to disable this easily via modding so that the dorfs always go for the opposite sex?

[Telgin]

You can add the correct orientation tags to the dwarf creature in the raws, but I don't have the syntax handy.  It's worth noting that you'd have to do that everywhere to eliminate the default, which applies to all normal creatures so far as I know.  Yes, even animals (which showed up in the bug tracker but is probably not really a bug).  If you just put it in the dwarf creature, only dwarves would be completely heterosexual.

Alright thanks ill look into it!

Jean Armstrong is the pinnacle of man. Apart from, you know, cooking and stuff.



Anyway, can we go back to discussion the craftdwarfship of artificial genitalia? That was interesting.

Hiya,

I was wondering if there is some way to disable this easily via modding so that the dorfs always go for the opposite sex?

The logic for the orientation tags is [ORIENTATION:<sex>:<probability not attracted to this sex>:<probability interested in romance but not marriage with this sex>:<probability interested in marriage with this sex>].  So the proper syntax for 100% heterosexual dwarves (and animals) is the following:

1) To the [CASTE:FEMALE] add the following:
                 [ORIENTATION:MALE:0:0:100]
                 [ORIENTATION:FEMALE:100:0:0]

2) To the [CASTE:MALE] add the following:
                 [ORIENTATION:FEMALE:0:0:100]
                 [ORIENTATION:MALE:100:0:0]

If one (or both) of the tags is missing, then the game defaults to hard-coded values, so you need to define the numbers for both genders in both cases.

Shit, I didn't realize there was demand for this. (I interpret "someone thought about it once" as "demand")

Yeah, that's basically in-vitro fertilization. Run the script and it'll show you a list of every unit with a lover/spouse, regardless of the unit's sex or the lover's. Select a unit and the unit will immediately have a baby with the lover as the "father", again regardless of the unit's sex or the lover's. The game really works well with it, too.

I hope transgenderism is added soon too, to be able to train my surgeons, suturers and wound dressers in between sieges.

I am trying to figure out how to mod in transgender, intersex, and genderfluid in the meantime. I have a thread in the modding forum and am looking for advice.

It seems like it will be somewhat difficult.

edit: but it doesn't involve surgery. That's way above the dwarves' abilities. Even hormone treatments are not in their reach.

edit edit: Putnam, are you able to write a script to make orphans available for adoption by any couple that currently doesn't have an infant, or is that impossible?
