Does the INSULATION tag only protect against cold, or will it make creatures melt more easily in hot enviroments as well? Don't think that'd be good for my species to melt in temperate biomes, even if they can survive glaciers running around naked.

Wanting to find out how high I need to set it to let the creatures I'm making survive on a glacier just fine (with clothes on at least)

... Is it possible for clothing to have additional insulation? I just thought it'd be a wonderful idea to make fur-lined armor that would let dwarves or any other species survive in -60 degrees!

Ok, last chance before the next release: Does anyone has any idea why this does not work ? I added [MATERIAL_REACTION:DRINK:PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE] to every plant that can be brewed and made this reaction:

[REACTION:REFINE_DRINK1]
   [NAME:brew tasty drink(50)]
   [BUILDING:MAGMA_BREWERY:NONE]
   [BUILDING:STILL:NONE]
[REAGENT:A:4:PLANT:NONE:NONE:NONE]   
[HAS_MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:DRINK:PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE]
   [REAGENT:container:1:BARREL:NONE:NONE:NONE]
      [PRESERVE_REAGENT]
[PRODUCT:100:50:DRINK:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:NONE]
   [PRODUCT_DIMENSION:150]
   [PRODUCT_TO_CONTAINER]
   [SKILL:BREWING]

Try raising the contact area (the first number) and perhaps lowering the velocity multiplier (the last number, the game can get weird with really huge numbers sometimes).

Does the INSULATION tag only protect against cold, or will it make creatures melt more easily in hot enviroments as well?

Polar bears can survive perfectly fine in tropical forests if you import them from human caravans, so I doubt it could hurt them. Unless you tinker with advanced world generation temperatures, anything will be able to survive naked on a glacier or bundled up in a desert without any damage.

Ok, last chance before the next release: Does anyone has any idea why this does not work ?

Three things. First: it seems that the reaction is trying to make a drink out of solid plant material. Replace the drink's product with:
Code: [Select]
[PRODUCT:100:50:DRINK:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:DRINK_MAT]
The second: your [PRODUCT_TO_CONTAINER] token lacks a target, so the drink will just spill on the floor. Change it to:
Code: [Select]
[PRODUCT_TO_CONTAINER:container]
Third: your reaction won't accept rock or earthenware pots as a container and it might act strangely with barrels that are already filled. Replace its reagent line with:
Code: [Select]
[REAGENT:container:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE]
[EMPTY]
[FOOD_STORAGE_CONTAINER]
[PRESERVE_REAGENT]
[DOES_NOT_DETERMINE_PRODUCT_AMOUNT]
(taken from vanilla "make mead" reaction)

One last thing to consider: your reaction won't produce any seeds of the plant used to brew. I'm not sure if that's intentional, so just in case you overlooked it add this:
Code: [Select]
[PRODUCT:100:1:SEEDS:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:SEED]

[HAS_MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:DRINK:PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE] should simply be [HAS_MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:DRINK]

and instead of [MATERIAL_REACTION:DRINK:PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE], try [MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:DRINK:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:DRINK] in the plants instead.

You might be (almost certainly are) blowing out variables with those numbers under attack edge.  Those numbers are far too large for the game to calculate, probably causing the game to revert to a really low default value.  I don't know exactly what variable type those are but the 5000 is probably fine, the others however are insane and probably higher then the game knows what to do with.

Try progressively less absurd numbers until it works.

Try 4000000000 at most.

If that still only dents skin, then stick with 60000.

I have a question.
Has anybody ever tried making multiple workspaces in a workshop? I really want a workshop that can produce materials on one side, and have them picked up on the other.

154. When you get the word "adamantine" on your LA vocab, you quickly cross it out and replace it with "cotton candy" and spend the next 10 minutes in fetal position rocking back and forth in fear. (Yes, I actually did this.)
...Wait. Adamantine is real?...

I doubt that'll work. Sounds like a nice aesthetic, though.

I believe people have done some multiple constructed buildings that make up a single "workshop" area, but I don't believe that having multiple workspaces on a single building will work.

It indeed works. Now I can have slaves load rocks onto wheelbarrows from the mine only, and not have them steal rocks from the stockpiles! Great success!

So what did you do exactly, just add more [WORK_LOCATION:x:y] tags? Also does it provide any benefit other then dwarves no longer needing to step on top of the workshop operator in order to get things from the workshop?
