changing the ethics might do the trick.

Seems like it is tied to the creature tag, people said goblins and such weren't able to do it either.

I'm thinking something like this might work:
Code: [Select]
[INTERACTION:MARK]
[I_SOURCE:CREATURE_ACTION]
[I_TARGET:A:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE]
[MANUAL_INPUT:marked target]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
[IE_TARGET:A]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[SYNDROME]
[CE_FLASH_TILE:'X':4:0:1:FREQUENCY:2000:500:START:0]
[CE_REMOVE_TAG:CAN_LEARN:START:0]

This wound up working:
Code: [Select]
[INTERACTION:MARK]
[I_SOURCE:CREATURE_ACTION]
[I_TARGET:A:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE]
[IT_AFFECTED_CLASS:GENERAL_POISON]
[IT_MANUAL_INPUT:marked target]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
[IE_TARGET:A]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[SYNDROME]
[CE_FLASH_TILE:TILE:48:4:0:1:FREQUENCY:2000:500:START:0]
[CE_REMOVE_TAG:CAN_LEARN:START:0]
Targets I hit with that can be butchered and turned into items/ate, ones of the same race/civ fighting me with them that weren't hit with it can be butchered but not eaten/turned into stuff/eaten.

I'm surprised, making the permissions based on ethics doesn't seem like it would be too difficult.  Or just allow it and make going against your ethics damage your focus level.

Are we sure it's not based on ethics?  Goblins can't eat people but all the goblins we can play as are technically members of human civilization, so they might have human ethics.  Try giving humans goblin ethics and see if that helps.

My Tigerman adventurer couldn't either. That made me sad.

I made all the races playable, pure goblins and pure elves with goblin and elf ethics should be able to eat their kills or at least shouldn't care about it, it is specifically allowed for elves but I couldn't do it.

I just added the syndrome interaction because I'd rather deal with that than lose out on silly stuff like vampire dragon gods in foot races against necromancers during world gen.

Can I just say how much I love the fact that this topic is a thing? Only in DF.
