Can i create original dialogue options and responses for use in adventure mode? Also is it possible to change what conflict level is triggered by a certain attack? EG: why does going for one's throat turn things lethal? Is there some token or value that determines that where I can see it?

Has anyone ever made a reaction that successfully uses skulls (not just bones, but skulls specifically)?

@Fatace

I had the same problem as you when I updated my mod, but I got around it by letting the goblins have [MAX_STARTING_CIV_NUMBER:0]. New goblin civs will appear when dwarves dig too deep in worldgen - and those new civs don't cause a crash.

(Note that I use [VARIABLE_POSITIONS], but not [SITE_VARIABLE_POSITIONS], and none of my positions are called [POSITION:CUSTOM_OFFICIAL_#]. Not sure if any of that matters, but just so you know)

Combat system is not editable as only toady can edit how much quarter (lethality and intent) a fight poses, but you can put in custom dialogue to existing events and some empty fields too for DF > Data > Speech

Including the infamous ``Greetings.  My name is [SPEAKER:TRANS_NAME].`` on greet.txt.

• It has its own tokens which im not entirely sure if they're wrote down anywhere

That is one possible way to look at it. Tho.. with Mods that have more than just goblins as dark fortress civs, would harshly decline in the amount of wanted civs.

So as a break from the summoned-weapon-wielding -

I suspect that raw-defined TITANS and FEATURE_BEASTS do not get placed, or maybe if they do, they cause the game to crash at history generation start. Has anyone else experimented with those tokens yet? DEMON and UNIQUE_DEMON appear to work perfectly fine, though.

So, Tried to create a custom experiment interaction. It didnt stop my summoners from being created but with the custom interaction as an option they were, strangely enough, unable to build towers. When i got rid of it they worked. With it they did the whole vampire, "go from village to village" thing. Not sure if thats  a bug. But be wary fellow modders.

Going based off this, and other posts, have we found the can and cants for modded secrets that can make towers? Like what is needed, and what cannot be there?

Last I checked, unless .47.01 has changed the mechanics, a secret-holder needs to gain an interaction that lets them obtain minions via reanimation, and the tower gets built if they have enough. I dunno yet if summoning monsters creates valid laborers for that.

Going off of reading previous posts I've mentioned, as well as my own experience so far.. seems like Summonings don't work, as well as my old previous  [I_EFFECT:ANIMATE] tags that I had them change into elemental creatures that worked in 44.x

Which is why im triple checking on if anyone knows a more specified reason with the new requirement changes for a secret to build towers lol.

How do I get a disease interaction to spread via blood? Preferably with contact transmitting it.

If I'm correct, that would require a special blood material with a syndrome to be used as a creature's blood (like creature specific venom templates). The syndrome would be similar to the cave blob fluid, at least in the fact that it would use SYN_CONTACT.

Did you read any of my posts?
I found already that summoning does not create valid minions for that. Animate is still required.

Also transforming the animated things doesn't seem to work anymore at least for tower building.


Also no one has answered my EXPERIMENT question so i guess ill have to play around with that.

[Fatace]

Yeah I did read your posts, tho it was a bit vague, the summoning part was clear, but with you saying that made a lot more clear now lol.
