Hey all.
So, I'm kinda new here and I've just started experimenting with modding. I tried to make dragons playable in Adventure mode. I made the Entity and the creature itself (I just modified the dragon raw to make a new creature), generated a new world, but I can't play as my wyrms (that's what my modded creature is called). I have the [INDIV_CONTROLLABLE] tag and everything. I don't know what I'm doing wrong...I'll post my raws here and hopefully someone can point out my mistake. Here goes...

Soooo...whats wrong with my wyrms?

   

[Star Weaver]

Let's see ...

There's no [Mountain_settlements] tag, according to the wiki.

There's no [trANSLATION:DRAGON] unless you've made a language_dragon.txt file.

Your creature dosn't have [INTELLIGENT] or any of its implications.

Hm ...

Your creature and entity have the same name. The base game avoids this. Try changing the entity to WYRM_ENTITY or something just to make sure that it's not getting confused.

[i2amroy]

The name thing shouldn't have any effect, but yeah, you need to have either [INTELLIGENT] or the [CAN_CIV] tag in order for a creature to form civilizations. [INTELLIGENT] is probably better for a playable civilization.

[MetalGear]

Ahh...thanks, but where do I put those tags?

[i2amroy]

Just add them anywhere to the creature. Order of the tags doesn't matter at all in a creature as long as the [CREATURE:whatever] is at the top. (There is an exception to this inside the body tag, but that doesn't generally effect anything unless you have done some crazy custom modding.
