NOBLEED determines whether the part flies off in a bloody arc, or simply an arc, and also (I think) causes the shattered message. It might also be caused by SEVERONBREAKS.

[i are not good with compu]

Okay, I admit, this is more of a request than a question.  What's a good quick fix (i.e., I don't want to make a new world) to make my Giants and Ettins stronger? Those two make up probably 90% of the cave dwellers around and they're disappointingly weak with a good hammer/shield dwarf with legendary wrestling.  I'm particularly looking for a way to keep them from giving into pain and going unconscious and keeping them fighting longer.

And here's a real question - can I mod in a playable race in any way besides fooling around with the stats of an existing one?  Is there a guide for that (I don't think there's anything specifically for it on the wiki)?

[KaelGotDwarves]

Yes, the modding guide has a full tutorial for adding playable races.

A quick fix to making your giants/ettins stronger is giving them [NOPAIN][NOBLEED][NOEXERT] tags and others associated with being a tiredless killing machine. Also up their size.

I'm trying to get a race of turtle men I made to worship sea monsters. They do, but the other half of the time they worship demons. Likewise goblins now sometimes worship sea monsters. I've tried messing around with the spheres in the entity file and the worshipped creatures' files but that hasn't stopped it from happening.

They also don't build roads despite having the tag. Heres the code for the turtle men entity and creature, and the sea monster creature. Goblins and demons are default.

Is it possible to have more than one race as part of the Civilization? Like, goblins and dwarves in the same Civilization entry?

[Dasleah]

I'm trying to get a race of turtle men I made to worship sea monsters. They do, but the other half of the time they worship demons. Likewise goblins now sometimes worship sea monsters. I've tried messing around with the spheres in the entity file and the worshipped creatures' files but that hasn't stopped it from happening.

They also don't build roads despite having the tag. Heres the code for the turtle men entity and creature, and the sea monster creature. Goblins and demons are default.

blah blah blah


You need to add some [SPHERE:X] tags to your Megabeast, and set the Civ's [SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:NAME:X] number. So, give the Megabeast something like the [SPHERE:OCEAN] tag, and set the civ you want to worship it to have [SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:OCEAN:10000] or something. This means they show bias towards a [POWER] with the spheres they like, which is this case will be the big Turtle Megabeast.

Is it possible to have more than one race as part of the Civilization? Like, goblins and dwarves in the same Civilization entry?

It is, I believe, but as far as I'm aware it will choose between the options given randomly, and then only use the one it chooses. As it, it'll randomly pick between Dwarves or Goblins, and then only use Dwarves if it chooses that one.

[MoonMan]

Ok, I tried giving the
turtle entity
[SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:WATER:512]
the turtle power creature
[SPHERE:WATER]

goblins [SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:FIRE:512][SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:TORTURE:512][SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:DEATH:512]
demons
[SPHERE:FIRE][SPHERE:TORTURE][SPHERE:DEATH]

and the goblins and turtles still seem to pick the one to worship at random. I'll generate worlds where they both worship one or the other, or they both worship the opposite power.

[KaelGotDwarves]

sphere alignments are out of a 20k something variable, same with art variables. You're going to need a bit more than 512 to get a noticeable result, try 20000

[MoonMan]

I tried it with 20000 and then with 100000 and didn't seem to get any noticable result.

[The13thRonin]

Does the BRITTLE tag for metals disallow the metal to be used to stud (decorate) items?

I'd like to know the answer to this to save me some valuable trial and error time using my new modification.

[Deon]

I'm pretty sure that "brittle" disallows to use metals in forging, however I am not sure about decorating...

Tibbles:
Nay, it's impossible.

Moonman:
I saw this kind of "bug" too. Sometimes when the demons are NOT genned in worldgen the goblins pick ANY_appropriate power, so if you have demons they should stop worshipping turtle giant monsters, however the appearance of megabeasts is pretty random.

[Dasleah]

I tried it with 20000 and then with 100000 and didn't seem to get any noticable result.

Have you tried also adding the SPHERE_ALIGNMENT for the Demon's spheres, and setting them to 0? So, [SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:FIRE:0] ?

[Deon]

Do you mean goblins' spheres? Because demons don't have entities to put this in.

[Dasleah]

No, I mean that custom civ's entity entry. So, he'll have [SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:OCEAN:10000] and [SPHERE_ALIGNMENT:FIRE:0], so it makes it far more likely that his race will worship a [POWER] with [SPHERE:OCEAN] than [SPHERE:FIRE].

[Deon]

I've just tried some testing, it looks like if there's no demon goblins randomly pick other powers despite of their spheres =(.
