I remember that i heard somewhere that i could teleport from one area to another bya editing something... but what?

[scamtank]

You might be half-remembering someone's advances in memory hacking from the DFHack thread.

How would I make a material that burns you upon contact, but it disappears/evaporates shortly after?

nvm

[Enemy post]

Please tell us how you did it, Thedonkified, so future modders know. Thanks for the help, Demonic and Eric.

Is there anyway to create a sorcerer with plague powers?
Like creating deadly dust at a pointed location, giving a living being necrosis etc.

The Wiki is your friend. Looking at how different mods have done things can also help you figure things out.

What repseki said. However, keep in mind that short of curses passed down from deities in worldgen these diseases won't spread very well in-game except when the player has the area loaded. Creatures don't bleed etc. when unloaded, so you lose the transmission vector.

You definitely want this. There've been new tokens since 0.34.11.

[Repseki]

Good catch, I just quickly grabbed the links off the wiki "token" page, I guess that one wasn't updated.

Is it possible to create a creature that can go on sieges with [CAN_LEARN] like a troll, but not have [EVIL]?

[IndigoFenix]

Try SLOW_LEARNER.  Evil has nothing to do with it.

[ShinQuickMan]

Depends. If he's looking for a new goblin exclusive seiger, than he'd need the [EVIL] tag, along with either [SLOW_LEARNER], or [TRAINABLE_WAR] and no [CAN_LEARN]/[INTELLIGENT] tag (replace [GOOD] instead of [EVIL] for elves). Otherwise, he could just use either [PET] or [PET_EXOTIC] along with [TRAINABLE_WAR], which ignores creature sapience.

I'm having some sort of weird problem with plants.  A few alcohols are being listed as "none", for example, "strawberry none" or "pig tail none", despite there being nothing in the error log about plants, the alcohol names being listed in the raws, and the vast majority of alcohols working just fine with no differences in the raws that I can see.  I'm also getting seeds listed on the embark menu with no names "( [5])", which I can't seem to actually plant.  Irritatingly enough, "strawberry seeds" are listed just fine.  Has anyone ever seen a bug like this before?

[Dirst]

Howdy, has anyone actually seen a secret with [MUNDANE_RESEARCH_POSSIBLE] actually show up in worldgen or better yet a player-fort library?

[Repseki]

Maybe you should start a Library fort and do !!SCIENCE!!

Well, maybe more SCIENCE than !!SCIENCE!!. It's probably hard to discover the secrets of life and death while melting... then again, maybe it will help?
