What is wrong with this civ? It won't generate, but the creatures work fine.

noticed the error... i used "LOCAL" as target instead of "LOCALIZED" :p
however there is still a problem... while testing in arena mode the description of creature affected by the syndromes always says something like:

Code: [Select]
Active Syndromes:

Wind Blast!, 0 phases (0 seconds)

whats happening?

Arena mode bug.  Time in arena mode gets screwed up after the first time you take control of a creature. 

When you start the arena, syndrome progression works properly.  After you take control of a creature, if you switch back to Fort-mode-style syndromes no longer progress.

______________________________________________________________________________

@RogueArchivist:  Weird.  Sometimes defining the same Tissue multiple times causes crashes*.  It looks like you define the Platinum and Crystal Glass Tissues twice, once per Overseer caste.  Delete the second set of declarations and see if that fixes the problem. 

In general, for multiple-caste creatures I suggest doing all material and tissue declarations at the top of the entry, including calls to b_detail_plans that create tissues and materials (like standard_materials and _tissues).

I don't know that this will fix your problem, though, because in my experience it doesn't kick in unless you're re-defining MANY Materials/Tissues, occasional duplicates are usually no big deal.

*remember that Tissue declaration isn't caste specific.

Ok, I deleted the seconed set, but it still crashes. It rather looks like I may have to shelve this mod till a later version. Thanks for all the help though.

It's not necessary to select a caste immediately after declaring it; the parser does that for you. If you were to declare a new caste or select another one, and then wanted to go and modify the earlier caste, then you'd have to select it again.

There aren't any growth phases yet (things are born in one caste and stay that way), so it's not possible to make larvae or eggs or whatever, but otherwise it's possible to represent a variety of things pretty well.

Sure you can.  Things start as babies, become children, and then become adults.  You can call babies eggs and children larvae if you like.

*Whipes brow*
Whew, that was a lot, but I finaly finished making the elves for my mod. 9 well polished races, each unique with there own appearance, personalitys, attributes and skil rates. Of corse they were the easy ones because I want my elves males and females to be very similar. As I want gender differnces for dwarfs/humans/goblins/a lot of other things, these are going to take even more effort.

Ah well, still, the elves came out looking very nice.

Doing so has nothing to do with castes.

Yes. As I recall, one of the first tests done in the forums with syndromes and blood was a syndrome in dwarf blood that caused bleeding. A pool of blood soon caused every dwarf in the fortress to bleed to death. It was rather amusing.

Hello

I would like to create a fortress with 2 (or more) races in it. E.g. blue elfs + tigermen. What would be the best way to go about this?

Create an Entity definition, and have the races defined under that? Would that result in the starting party and migrant waves having members of both races?

Should I create a new creature definition for the tigermen, use that creature in the entity definition, so that there'd continue to be wild tigermen in savage tropical areas?

I'd need to take the "PET" tag out of the tigermen that I use, yes?

Is there any mod program at the moment that can remove an infection on a dwarf, or anything I can edit in the raws to cure a dwarf with an infection?

Picture a dwarf, warrior, mechanic, or some other incredibly useful profession. Now picture him dead. That's what infections do.

OH GOD! It's a kraken!
Sorry, couldn't resist the impulse. Anyway, maybe yes! If you remove [CREATURE_CLASS:GENERAL_POISON] from the dwarf that may do it.

the wiki has GETS_WOUND_INFECTIONS  and GETS_INFECTIONS_FROM_ROT as creature tokens... assuming dwarves have these, removing them might work
