What would be the best way to show a difference between an automatic ranged weapon and a semi-auto or single shot weapon? Adjust the damage to make up for the rate of fire?

That's basically all you can do. If you have the ammo produced in a stack of one, via reaction, that should get you your single shot weapon. Other than that, you're reduced to making the weapon incredibly heavy to slow your dwarves.

Yes, it will work if you have the [ENTITY:PLAINS], and you can change the origenal entity all you like.

No, you can make an exact copy and change the name from PLAINS to WHAT_EVER_YOU_WANT

Although, If I recall, then by using the same race for more then one entity, it will only show one entity on embark, but they will both be there. A good way to make theifs and pirates hidden is to make them humans, and therefor players will not know if there going to get muggers raiding the fortress.

Hmm... Would two Entities of humans fight?

If so, could I just make a few hundred copies of ENTITY:PLAINS and thus have several human civs duking it out?

Yes, and by making it alcoholic, it becomes drinkable. You need to make the creature that you plan to milk give alcohole, instead of normal milk, then call it milk.

Yes, especialy if you mess with the ethics. I think humans currently fight amounst themselves though. There is the human 'creature' and members of that creature come together to form a 'civilisation' in a common model, that is the 'entity', so in truth entitys don't fight, but instances of these entitys, the civilisations, do.

You need to change the Entity tag, and I think you need to change the ethics to get them to fight.

No, as far as I know it's only interspecial warfare right now. I could be wrong.

Realy? I swear I have seen human civs duke it out in legends, but I could very well be wrong.

In that case, multiple human entitys would be a very good idea!

EDIT:  Short answer is you need to change what tissues get added to the hand, since tissues control what materials are there.

You need to use a different body than HUMANOID, because HUMANOID includes arms and hands.

I'd suggest using HUMANOID_ARMLESS (So change [BODY:HUMANOID:etc:etc to [BODY:BODY:HUMANOID_ARMLESS:etc:etc) and then make your own arms.

For example:
Code: [Select]
(in a body file)
[BODY:HELL_3PARTARMS]
[BP:RUA:right upper arm:STP][CONTYPE:UPPERBODY][LIMB][RIGHT][CATEGORY:ARM_UPPER]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:200]
[BP:LUA:left upper arm:STP][CONTYPE:UPPERBODY][LIMB][LEFT][CATEGORY:ARM_UPPER]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:200]
[BP:RLA:right lower arm:STP][CON:RUA][LIMB][RIGHT][CATEGORY:HELL_ARM_LOWER]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:200]
[BP:LLA:left lower arm:STP][CON:LUA][LIMB][LEFT][CATEGORY:ARM_LOWER]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:200]
[BP:RH:right hand:STP][CON:RLA][GRASP][RIGHT][CATEGORY:HELL_HAND]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:80]
[BP:LH:left hand:STP][CON:LLA][GRASP][LEFT][CATEGORY:HAND]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:80]
That marks his right lower arm and right hand with a different category than the default ones.  Now they can have a new tissue added.

In your creature def:
Code: [Select]
...
   [PREFSTRING:stature]
   [BODY:HUMANOID_ARMLESS:HELL_3PARTARMS:2EYES:2EARS:NOSE:2LUNGS:HEART:GUTS:ORGANS:HUMANOID_JOINTS:THROAT:NECK:SPINE:BRAIN:SKULL:5FINGERS:5TOES:MOUTH:FACIAL_FEATURES:TEETH:RIBCAGE]
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:STANDARD_MATERIALS]
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:STANDARD_TISSUES]
   [TISSUE:STONE_TISSUE] <- declare stone tissue
[TISSUE_NAME:stone:stone]
[TISSUE_MATERIAL:INORGANIC:OBSIDIAN] <- or whatever
[MUSCULAR]
[FUNCTIONAL]
[STRUCTURAL]
[RELATIVE_THICKNESS:20] <- or something
[CONNECTS]
[TISSUE_SHAPE:LAYER]
   [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:VERTEBRATE_TISSUE_LAYERS:SKIN:FAT:MUSCLE:BONE:CARTILAGE]
[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_CATEGORY:HELL_ARM_LOWER:STONE_TISSUE] <- apply stone tissue to lower arm
[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_CATEGORY:HELL_HAND:STONE_TISSUE] <- apply stone tissue to hand
...

Quick question guys. If I have an under ground civ, and make them item theifs/baby snatchers/aggressive in general, will they still show up? Can I make an underground species attack me on season?
