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].

Tried this and it still didn't work. I guess I'll just have to deal with them worshipping the wrong power.

That worked, although I'd rather have them be evil and worship the wrong thing to be honest. Good to know for future reference though.

Do _NAME tags work?

I can only get those working for dwarves to work right now, everything else will be the same.

For example:
Code: [Select]
[LASHER_NAME:lurker:lurkers]
[MASTER_LASHER_NAME:shadow aspect:shadow aspects]
Those don't change anything in game.

The "name" works for every profession in vanilla which has "man" changed to "dwarf" (i.e. "hammerman"->"hammerdwarf", "fisherman"->"fisherdwarf" etc.).

Here goes my question: what is the full list of professions avaliable for usage in weapons?
I tried to make appraisal in different ways but did not succeed, while woodcutting works fine.

I'm playing a human fortress. I noticed that they have no mayors unless you add the [MAYOR] token.  Do humans get barons (and higher nobles) by default, and if not, what is the token for that (if any)?

They have military leaders by default (champions).
[CAN_HAVE_MILITARY_LEADER] - they can have a military civilization ruler
[CAN_HAVE_MILITARY_SITE_LEADER] - they can have military city rulers
To determine their civ. leaders there are 2 tokens.
(1) The main leader (like king):
[LEADER_TYPE:PROFESSION]
(2) The city leader type:
[SITE_LEADER_TYPE:PROFESSION]

I don't know why is there [MAYOR] while you can use the [SITE_LEADER_TYPE:MAYOR]. Sean? Is it working? I guess it is.

To get barons in cities, give them [SITE_LEADER_TYPE:BARON].

What does [PACK_ANIMAL] do, enable them to be used by traders to carry their goods?  Is it necessary or can it be ignored if they have a trade capacity?

Yeah, and IIRC each race needs at least one animal which has [PACK_ANIMAL], although I'm not certain about recent versions (I messed with it last in the 2d version when I wanted to mess around with making a goblin fort).

If a race only shows up on the 'Play Now!' menu in Adventurer mode, does that mean that their civ was wiped out in war?  Also, is it possible to make merchant races that would never start wars itself?  Like a dwarf civ that lived in towns instead of  the Mountainhomes so you could buy armor that would actually fit a Dwarven adventurer?

I don't think you can have a race that NEVER starts wars, but I guess one that was pretty lenient about everything wouldn't start wars too often. Of course, other civs would hate them for being ok with stuff like slavery and eating foes killed in battle.

As for your second question, no, there isn't anything stopping you from having a civ of town dwelling dwarves. And if you gave them the same ethics and religions as the normal dwarves, the chances of those two civs going to war would be very very low.
