making everything hostile and shoot fire.
« on: May 14, 2009, 06:21:07 pm »

So how would I go by making all large land and sea creatures hostile to my dwarves and shoot fireballs? I'm hoping to use said info in a succession game. I just need to know which tags to add/remove from each creature.

Thanks :D

add [LARGE_PREDATOR] and [FIREBREATH] to everything. Remove [INTELLIGENT] from humans, elves, and goblins and replace it with [CAN_CIV][CAN_LEARN]. Make sure you embark in a savage area.

You wrote an app to change the values for you? That's not very dwarvenly. You should've done it with magma by hand.

On the contrary, writing an app to do it for you is very dwarven.  It's like building a water-powered 7SD calculator that's fed by water-wheel pumps.

Yes, actually, I am trying to get myself banned.  I wish Toady would quit working on this worthless piece of junk and go back to teaching math.

You mean a magma powered calculator. That leaks. In your booze stockpile. And is infested with fireproof giant eagles with magmavision.

And you can't eat them, either, sadly. Even though it'd make sieges so much more fun; dwarves lining the walls, drooling and carrying sharp knives and forks, ready for the upcoming meals.

Yup, my fortress had the lava nightmare problem before. Got ourselves an exterminator for it. Haven't seen him since, 'ciz we blocked off all access to the magma channels after we went in.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.
