You should post the creature info. I dont know if you gave them an extract on their tentacles... maybe they are stinging themselves?

I have heard rumors you can set the time you want to stop your world from creating, so rather then your created world ending at 200 or 205 it could end at 1, or -100bc or something like that. More or less be your own Gilgamesh and have a very easy game for some odd hundred of years. Question is that I got is...you know, how do you do that XD

They aren't rumors, and it isn't modding.  It's on the first page of the advanced worldgen parameters...

Also, is there any way to make it so that buildings built underwater aren't crushed? I tried playing as an adventurer, and the entire civilization was immediately flattened. Also, it told me that everyone just "fell over."

Everyone will flip the fuck out in an underwater/flying civ due to 'dangerous terrain.'  Although the house crushing water pressure is new to me.

Falling over probably has to do with only having one [STANCE] token, the other being [STANCE, which doesn't work.

Is there any way to make an animal burrow? Some long-forgotten tag? Pick arms?

Is it possible for a monster to drop an item that is processed at the leatherworkers or clothiers shop instead of at the smelter? I want my halloween scarecrow to drop some straw, which can then be woven into a straw hat ;D Is this possible ???

What's wrong with this creature?  It won't stop falling over and suffocating.

Playing a cheesemaker in an average Fortress 'round here would be. Freaking. Terrifying.

Hmm...it has no brain but lacks the NOTHOUGHT tag. That's probably the problem.

Ah. I somehow thought that the head from the LEGLESS_HUMANOID would automatically call for a brain to be in it.

Thanks.

I don't think so. At the moment, I think only smelter reactions can be modded. Anything else would require some memory hacking.

Nonsense, ITEMCORPSE can produce anything that the smelter can.  First, add this to matgloss_stone_mineral.txt:

[MATGLOSS_STONE:STRAW]
[NAME:straw][COLOR:6:0:1][TILE:156]
[ITEM_SYMBOL:'*']
[VALUE:10]
[MELTING_POINT:10200]
[BOILING_POINT:10150]
[SOLID_DENSITY:20]
[THREAD_METAL:STRAW:100]

This to matgloss_metal.txt:


[MATGLOSS_METAL:STRAW]
[NAME:straw][COLOR:6:0:1][TILE:156]
[ITEM_SYMBOL:'\']
[VALUE:10]
[MELTING_POINT:10200]
[BOILING_POINT:10150]
[SOLID_DENSITY:20]

Then, add this tag to your creature:

[ITEMCORPSE:1:THREAD:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:STRAW]

Now it will drop straw which can be made into cloth which can be made into a hat.  ;D

It only exists under the reaction for adamantine wafers, which is why you have to go with "metal" straw, but it's in there.  There might be a more elegant solution involving plants, but I used the quick and dirty method.

Wait. The melting point is higher than the boiling point. Will this thing sublimate?
