You answered your question. If everyone has "short" hair then "short" is the new "average" in their culture. Use your hack.

Fair enough, pity I have to though.

Yeah, this is something I realised recently as well. It's a little counter-intuitive to say the least, but I think it's possible to get the results you want with enough tweaking.

I saw that post already but it was worth having another look at. If your playing as dwarves it makes sense to compare the length of your fellow dwarves hair with that of your "average dwarf"; It makes little sense when describing a beast with hair to it's ankles to someone who has never seen it as "It has short hair" (compared to it's pears) wouldn't help identify it.

The hack is working well enough anyway. Cheers for your help.

Eh, odd.
I have made a vermin incinerator, but it is not coming up in workshops.  I put the reaction and the building permits inside the entity, and I'm sure I did the building right...
Perhaps it has something to do with the building materials, or the fact that the build key is a capital X.

Here's the building:

Help?

I have a tissues related question.

Currently I use the following to put hair on them:

Code: [Select]

[BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:BODY_HAIR_TISSUE_LAYERS:HAIR]I get the HAIR through my own BODY_DETAIL_PLAN.

It all seems to be working fine but in the HAIR_TEMPLATE we have the following token:

Code: [Select]

[SUBORDINATE_TO_TISSUE:SKIN]The wiki doesn't explain it's function and Toady doesn't mention it in the .txt file. I've tried changing it to NEW_CHITIN, it being the tissue on the surface of my creatures, but it makes no difference I can see. There are no errors either. Does anyone know what SKIN it's referring to or have any experience with this?

Edit: It seems that without the [SUBORDINATE_TO_TISSUE:x] token you don't get hair being damaged in the combat reports.
Double Edit: It seems I was wrong about that, still no noticeable difference with or without.

[Deviled]

Can some one fix this for me, it crashes when I use it.

Code: [Select]

[REACTION:MAKE_BOLT]
[NAME:make bolt]
[ADVENTURE_MODE_ENABLED]

[LordBistian]

Hm, does the MAT_FIXED_TEMP token work with inorganic stuff?
I tried to make a barrel from such material with fixed temperature at 0° but it doesnt seems to freeze stuff inside and around it.

[Saetar33]

I seriously cannot figure out why it doesn't WORK.  I genned a new world because I saw I'd spelled reagent wrong, but zip, zero, zilch.

[Vattic]

Saetar33 when producing bars you need to set the product dimensions:

Code: [Select]

[PRODUCT:100:1:BAR:NONE:PEARLASH:NONE][PRODUCT_DIMENSION:150]Is what's used when producing bars of pearlash.

Hope that solves your problem.

[Saetar33]

All right, that's all good and well, now.
Thankee much.

[moisesjns]

hi say can any one help me how do i set my reaction to get coal and what do i tell it to permit? as in how do i make this


[REACTION:FREE_EMERALD]
[NAME: make emeralds]
[BUILDING:SMELTER:NONE]
[PRODUCT:100:10:ROUGH:NO_SUBTYPE:STONE:EMERALD]
[SKILL:SMELT]

but instead of emeralds coal Plz help

[Vattic]

Check out the wiki page on Reactions. I suggest you also look at the other reactions in reaction_smelter.txt as reference.

Once you have the reaction saved in reaction_smelter.txt. You want to go into entity_default.txt and find where it has these tags:

Code: [Select]

[PERMITTED_REACTION:TAN_A_HIDE]
[PERMITTED_REACTION:RENDER_FAT]
[PERMITTED_REACTION:MAKE_SOAP]With those add this:

Code: [Select]

[PERMITTED_REACTION:FREE_COAL]This allows that entity to use the reaction.

If you have any other trouble I'll be around for a couple of hours.

[moisesjns]

ill try but im a noob at this i only copy and pasted the emeralds and such. while im at it where is the option to build magma forges? i found magma

[Vattic]

You build forges by pressing {b}uild, Furnac{e}s then selecting the one you want from the list.

[moisesjns]

the thing is i want a magma forge but theirs no magma forge .

[KaguroDraven]

How could it be possible, and not sucidle, to mod dwarves to have a magma infused bite? I would assume it would involve syndromes but I'm not 100% on this.

REANGENT should be REAGENT. I'd have it make ash instead of fuel-coke.

Genesis mod has a melt-your-enemy bite on the Doom Dwarf caste, you might want to look at how it works. Search for keyword ASPID_TOXIN.
