FEATURE_ATTACK_GROUP
STANDARD_FLESH

What do they do? The wiki doesn't have anything.

Also, what are the alternatives to MULTIPLE_LITTER_RARE? I can't find anything else in any of my raws related to the frequency of litter sizes.

LIKES_FIGHTING

The wiki says this adds "takes joy in the slaughter" when the creature kills something in combat. But dwarves don't have LIKES_FIGHTING and they definitely take joy in the slaughter.

STANDARD_FLESH

I believe that anything that can produce meat has this tag.  Note that not everything that has this tag can be butchered, usually due to ethical constraints.

Also, what are the alternatives to MULTIPLE_LITTER_RARE? I can't find anything else in any of my raws related to the frequency of litter sizes.

LITTERSIZE, as in [liTTERSIZE:10:20] for something that births 10 to 20 babies at a time.  If you do not specify a BABY tag, the births will be children.  I have never tested whether you can birth adults by not specifying a CHILD tag.

LIKES_FIGHTING

The wiki says this adds "takes joy in the slaughter" when the creature kills something in combat. But dwarves don't have LIKES_FIGHTING and they definitely take joy in the slaughter.

The only time I've ever seen a dwarf who "took joy in slaughter recently", that dwarf also had the "doesn't care about anything anymore" tag.  Your mileage may vary.

Edit:  And can someone please tell me how to avoid the two lowercase letters after an open bracket on this forum?

[ZeroGravitas]

Thanks for the help. As to litter sizes, I understand how that works. Are the only alternatives MULTIPLE_LITTERS_RARE and litters of x-y size? Can I have MULTIPLE_LITTERS_UNCOMMON?

Also, I'm pretty sure I get "took joy in the slaughter recently" any time my dwarves kill anything else in combat - including killing other dwarves during sparring.

STANDARD_FLESH
Creature can have "chunks".

FEATURE_ATTACK_GROUP
I think it's obsolvete from 2d version.

STANDARD_FLESH also will set some basic heat and cold damage points for the creature. These can be then overrode by later tags, but if you want a creature to be super-heat resistant and have basic flesh, than make sure to add this tag before adding the heatdam tags.

FEATURE_ATTACK_GROUP
I agree with Deon, I have never even heard of this tag, so it probably is just something that was in the 2d.

[Untelligent]

Yeah, I'm fairly sure FEATURE_ATTACK_GROUP had to do with Frogmen and their ilk ambushing you from the cave rivers in 2D, as well as respective creatures from chasms and magma. They don't do that anymore. Sadly.

Thanks for the help.   I'm excited, my first attempt at making a creature actually seemed to work! (Aside from them equipping shields in their mouths). Apparently, you can have embedded lungs on the lower body and everything works fine!

Now, about entity tokens:

It appears OUTDOOR_FARMING overrides INDOOR_FARMING? Or am I just messing up what biomes the civs are from, because I can't see to get both types of seeds to appear on the Embark screen.

Edit: Nevermind, I got them to have both. Apparently my biomes were messed up.
