UPSTEP is an armor token. It determines how many bodyparts it will cover. For example a chainmail that is worn on the upper body also protects shoulders, upper arms, lower body and upper legs.

And thanks for the answer. It will protect a lot it seems. Dwarves will survive a lot longer if the only bleed from fingers and toes.

That's UBSTEP, not UPSTEP. UPSTEP handles neck and facial features.

Well, regardless, a dwarf with fixed-temp armor covering its entire body *should* be able to resist most normal fires.
Dragon fire on the other hand I don't know.

Dragonfire can handily be blocked by shields.

Sry, I always confuse UP and UB-step. ^^

Thanks for the answers though, I will do some arena testing and might add a firefighter outfit into my mod. Calling it slightly different of course

I'm guessing it could only be made with nethercap or something, because if it could be used as armor, it'd be the best armor by far no matter what >_>

[Meph]

Why best armor by far ? If it is a weak material like copper, just with the special ability of being fireproof, it would not be good in regular combat. But for people who fight magma creatures, or in a burning area, or creatures that use firebreath (or have firebreath allys and try to avoid friendly fire) it would be ok.

[Reudh]

Yeah, for balancing reasons you'd probably have to make it weak unless you want your firefighter's outfit to be absurdly overpowered.

Probably putting it on par with copper would be ideal.

Awesome, the dogs are in fact now gaining experience in various skills, bringing both good, and rather strange results. For example, I'm left wondering just how they manage to train up their negotiating or conversationalist skills.

Anyway, while I'm fiddling with dogs and skills, it now seems only appropriate that I give them something along the lines of [NATURAL_SKILL:BITE:X], so that they can finally start being a little more than mild distractions in combat. What do you suppose a realistic yet effective number for that would be? I was thinking somewhere around 3 or 4.

1. Does anyone tested the mix of [SEMIMEGABEAST] with [AQUATIC]? Would the giant carps/river dragons/bronze submarines visit the fort coming from a river or somewhere random where they would drown in a matter of seconds?

2. Is it possible for reactions to require remains of a chosen creature and not the random/nearest one?

I believe it's rumored that this sometimes happens in strange moods; the dwarf will want a specific material from their preferences and refuse to use other materials of that type.

[Meph]

I think the megabeasts would drown at world gen. They do live in caves...

[Raptor_a22]

If you add the correct biome to the creature you could possibly get it to survive. An aquatic creature wouldn't have ANY_DESERT...

[Meph]

I have a reaction that should sacrifice blood.. but it doesnt work. The game claims that I need magma... ?

[REACTION:SACRIFICE_BLOOD]
   [NAME:Offer blood to Armok]
   [BUILDING:ARMOK_ALTAR:NONE]
   [REAGENT:BARREL:1:LIQUID_MISC:NONE:INORGANIC:BLOOD]
   [PRESERVE_REAGENT]
      [DOES_NOT_DETERMINE_PRODUCT_AMOUNT]
   [PRODUCT:25:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_ARMOK_SWORD:INORGANIC:IRON]
   [SKILL:ALCHEMY]

Could anyone have a look and tell me what I am doing wrong ?
EDIT: LIQUID_MISC:NONE:CREATURE_MAT:NONE:BLOOD is that better ?

EDIT2: Another question: Can I create a product with higher value, based upon the reagent ? For example Food:Value 10 goes in, Food:Value 20 comes out ? Or do I have to remove the reagent food and replace it with something more valuable as a product ? For example: Food:(all kinds of food that are in the game) goes in, Food:(Super epic pizza) comes out.

[Shintaro Fago]

You can't sacrifice anything to Armok without magma, silly goose.
