The poisoning works correctly. Dipping bullets in paralyze poison is extremely effective. I will go to  bed now because I pulled an all-nighter, but tomorrow I will release the Poison update and start working on the Scholarship update.

[Deon]

I've managed to patch in the venoms and poison making, so now you can coat ammo with paralysis poison and knock out enemy squads from a distance. Or you can coat arrows with a madness venom and cause enemies to fight themselves. I should add more types of venom and then I'll release it.

Wow. I was under the impression that poisoning didn't work in DF. How do you get Dwarves to dip items in poison?

DFHack wizardry, I believe.

Cant understand how I missed this for so long...

Yep, the same way as I made fire arrows and web shots. I'll try to release the poison update today. I am very sorry for the delay, but Witcher 3 happened. Which made me immediately mod in griffins .

Witcher 3 excuses everything.

[mcolombe]

In all fairness. witcher 3 does look fricking amazing. i wish my laptop was powerful enough to play it.

 Out of curiosity Deon, do you think you will be able to get something that acts like an automatic weapon into the game? Because if you can, than that would be something to work twards in research.

 The weaponry available in general could use some fleshing out...

 Also, is there a chance that there will be a trade group that does not show with the other three?

[Teneb]

I'm pretty sure that ranged weapons cannot fire if they already have a shot airborne. I can't remember if weapons affect projectile speed or not, though, but if they can then "automatic" weapons will just be weapons that can fire slightly more often.

[Aseaheru]

 I meant in the form of clips/magazines, or assault rifles and such, but looking elsewhere it looks as if that is impossible until Toady goes and adds a variable.

 I dont know about the whole "cant fire gain while there is a shot airborne", since I think shots travel near instantly and there is a "attack and prepare to recover" time...

-edit-

 I wonder if there is a way(besides DF hack) that would allow someone to attach/detach one weapon to another... Like a knife to a rifle to get what we have currently as a rifle.

[vjmdhzgr]

You can't change the firing speed of ranged weapons in Dwarf Fortress. There is an [ATTACK_PREPARE_AND_RECOVER] token, but that's only for melee attacks, and if you see it on ranged weapons that's defining the melee attack for the ranged weapon/

[Max™]

Yeah, incidentally I meant those to be for the melee attacks, butt strike and bayonet stab.

[Deon]

Rifles already have bayonets in all releases. I removed knives from pistols though.
