How do I mod in castes and how do I make them have specific traits? Mainly hair colour and stats.

How would I make the product of a reaction bones?

Now, what about a specific bone type, like cat bones.

EDIT: also, for some reason this doesn't show up in the game:
Code: [Select]
[PLANT:IRON_CAP_SL]
   [NAME:iron cap][NAME_PLURAL:iron caps][ADJ:iron cap]
   [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:STRUCTURAL:STRUCTURAL_PLANT_TEMPLATE]
      [MATERIAL_VALUE:10]
      [EDIBLE_COOKED]
   [BASIC_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:STRUCTURAL]
   [PICKED_TILE:6][PICKED_COLOR:3:0:0]
   [GROWDUR:3000][VALUE:10]
   [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:DRINK:PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE]
      The material template is just called "alcohol" so we need to give it a proper name.
      [STATE_NAME_ADJ:ALL_SOLID:frozen iron beer]
      [STATE_NAME_ADJ:LIQUID:iron beer]
      [STATE_NAME_ADJ:GAS:boiling iron beer]
      We also set a few more numbers to distinguish the alcohol from the template.
      [MATERIAL_VALUE:10]
      [DISPLAY_COLOR:3:0:0]
      [EDIBLE_RAW]
      [EDIBLE_COOKED]
      [PREFIX:NONE]
   [DRINK:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:DRINK]
   [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:SEED:SEED_TEMPLATE]
      [MATERIAL_VALUE:1]
      [EDIBLE_COOKED]
   [SEED:iron cap spawn:iron cap spawn:4:0:1:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:SEED]
   [SPRING][SUMMER][AUTUMN][WINTER]
   [FREQUENCY:100]
   [CLUSTERSIZE:2]
   [PREFSTRING:toughness]
   [WET][DRY]
   [BIOME:SUBTERRANEAN_WATER]
   [UNDERGROUND_DEPTH:1:3]
   [SHRUB_TILE:58]
   [DEAD_SHRUB_TILE:58]
   [SHRUB_COLOR:3:0:0]
   [DEAD_SHRUB_COLOR:0:0:1]
why?!

EDIT2: nvm

Figure this should go in here.

How would I go about modding in 'bundles' of stone etc for the merchants to bring rather than individual rocks. IE 1 bundle = 10 rocks. And then say use a masons workshop or something to break down the bundle to its individual rocks.

I tried unsuccessfully to create bones in the arena but it kept crashing DF.

As far as I know there is no generic bone material since it's an organic - but rather a cat bone material, dog bone material, horse bone material, etc. Because of this you pretty much have to make a specific creature bone item, unless you're going to mod in a new "generic" bone material as an inorganic.

Depending on what you want to do, I know that producing a specific item out of bone works fine (in contrast to just producing bones). For example, [PRODUCT:100:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_FLAIL:CREATURE_MAT:CAT:BONE] produced a cat bone flail just fine for my goblin in the arena.

First you need to decide how to make your bundles - you can either make an item (tool or toy are popular), a new inorganic (would need one for every stone you'd want bundled...). I'd recommend the item method.

[ITEM_TOY:BUNDLED_MATERIALS]
[NAME:bundle:bundles]
[HARD_MAT]

OR

[ITEM_TOOL:BUNDLED_MATERIALS]
[NAME:bundle:bundles]
[VALUE:10]
[TILE:'o']
[SIZE:10000]
[MATERIAL_SIZE:10]
[HARD_MAT]
[UNIMPROVABLE]

Then for separating the bundles you can't use the mason's workshop. Closest I could see from default buildings is craftsdwarfs shop - or you could make a custom building. Going with the former for this example.

[REACTION:SEPARATE_BUNDLE]
   [NAME:separate bundle]
   [BUILDING:CRAFTSMAN:NONE]
   [REAGENT:bundle:1:TOOL:BUNDLED_MATERIALS:NONE:NONE] ** Change TOOL to TOY if you went with the TOY item
   [PRODUCT:100:10:BOULDER:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:bundle:NONE]
   [SKILL:MASONRY]

Make sure that whichever civ you want to bring these items has either [TOOL:BUNDLED_MATERIALS] or [TOY:BUNDLED_MATERIALS] in their entity file so they will actually have/bring them.

Hopefully someone can explain what's missing on this "Let's make a large fluffy wambler (Lazy Wambler), remove it's vermin-ness and then make it milkable" plan. Because the current plan is dangerously unstable in the arena. All the pudge and fluff melts off. I either have to change the critter's homeotherm to like 9950, or change the numbers on the milk_template itself... which I bet would mess something ELSE up.

The Lazy Wambler:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

CV-Milkable Humanoid

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Temp on the critter the second it is in the arena instantly becomes "It is burning" and with a step things start melting off. After the milk has exited the body for the arena floor the critter hardly knows anything was wrong. However all fluff and pudge have melted off.


Can anyone help @.@? I'd rather they not self flambe like this. What needs fixing? Nothing in the error_log about this...

Looks like should delete unknown [CONNECTOR] tag from BLADE
and make a central bodypart called CONNECTOR that has [BP:UB:mything:mythings][UPPERBODY][LOWERBODY][CATEGORY:BODY]. Unless you want the blade to be the core bodypart.

Through trial and error, it's your variation causing this. Loaded up with no changes, they melt. I took out the variation - they're fine. I added the tags directly into the creature - no melting, still.

I don't know much about using creature variations, but nothing stood out as terribly wrong to me. :\

I'm a bit confused about your explanation, because the body token page on the wiki would have me believe that CATEGORY:BODY isn't necessary, and I already have a body part ID'd as CONNECTOR.
Could you provide an example or something please?

I don't know about 40d modding, but I do see you have at least one typo there.
