Well, I've been mucking about with DF for a little while now, and recently decided to try my hand at adding a new playable race. I've attempted to create a six-armed naga, but if I try them out in fortress mode, it claims that they all have major injuries. I've been messing with stuff for a bit, trying to find out what the problem was, and trying out different things to see if they fix it. I'm sort of stumped right now, and I'm wondering if anyone's willing to give me some pointers on what I may have done wrong.

What I have so far:

Note: I added legs and set them to internal in an attempt to see if the lack of legs was the problem. Looks like it wasn't.

I should check it, but the first question: what's with all those INTERNAL

legs?!

Also your hands/arms are messed up. Look, i.e. middle right hand connects to RLA, but you have no RLA bodypart!!! The same issue with others.

Also I suggest you to check your other strings. [CAN_LEARN has no closing bracket and is unneeded, since INTELLIGENT includes CAN_LEARN, CAN_CIV and CAN_SPEAK. Etc.

Heh, yeah. I tried the internal legs as I was wondering whether the game was annoyed by my nagas' lack of legs. Thanks for pointing out the arms, though. I guess that's probably the reason why my nagas are considered severely injured: they have lower arms and hands that attatch to nonexistent body parts.

Oh, and thanks for the tip about INTELLIGENT. I hadn't realized that.
