Currently breath attacks and other new things are limited so we cannot get information from the raws if we want to make new ones. However they are in EXE so I thought they could be useful for modders.

(0) Interesting tokens
[VIEWRANGE:<dist>]  should determine how close you have to get to a critter before it attacks (or prevents adv mode travel etc.)  Default is 20.

[SKILL_RATES:<% of improvement points you get>:<unused counter rate>:<rust counter rate>:<demotion counter rate>].  Default is [SKILL_RATES:100:8:8:16].   [SLOW_LEARNER] changes the 100 to a 50.  You can't apply it to individual skills right now.  Lower numbers in the last three slots make those processes happen faster, so [SKILL_RATES:100:1:1:1] would make a creature lose skills quickly.  You can feed NONE in the last three if you want.

[PHYS_ATT_RATES:<att token>:<cost to improve>:<unused counter rate>:<rust counter rate>:<demotion counter rate>].  Defaults for are 500:2:3:2, except for RECUPERATION and DISEASE_RESISTANCE that don't have change rates.

[PHYS_ATT_CAP_PERC:<att token>:<cap %>].  Default is 200.  This means you can increase your attribute to 200% of its starting value (or the average value + your starting value if that is higher).

These have corresponding "MENT_ATT" tokens.

You put this up on the dorfwiki yet?

edit: I'll do it.
edit2: Done (your) sections (0) and (3), not sure what to do with sections (1) and (2).

Put them under breath attack token and syndrome token in creature tokens?

[Doomshifter]

These should prove wonderfully useful! Thanks, Deon!

[Acanthus117]

You people are gods. Thanks a million, Deon, I'm probably gonna need these...

Wow, Toady, thanks! 

[Deon]

Thank you very much, now I know how to make my dwarves to train much slower and not become uberstatmachines . Great.

Is there any other "hidden" tokens?

Do these actually work though? From the bug tracker it looks like skill gain and attribute gain are generally broken, period, apart from military skills. So will changing these actually do anything right now?
