[Angel Of Death]

It already turns into gas immediatly and the things ARE infected with it (I'm doing it in object testing mode. It says they are infected with it) but the syndromes don't work.

[Trapezohedron]

Try removing the 'LOCALIZED' part of the syndrome's tags. It might make the syndrome spread all around the body.

[Angel Of Death]

Nothing happens D:

[Trapezohedron]

I don't know about VASCULAR_ONLY, but most of my gaseous stone syndromes don't have it, so they affect everything. But considering that this is a blister, swelling and oozing syndrome, I doubt it will have an effect.

Just to be sure, try changing the PEAK to 2, and add a paralysis/necrosis placeholder to make sure that there's a visual indicator that the syndrome works.

[Angel Of Death]

I just added necrosis. It still dosen't work.

[Trapezohedron]

Real odd, tried tweaking it, testing it and stuff. The syndrome "works" in the sense that it appears in the creature's biography and such, but no actual symptoms occur.

Still, I don't understand why it doesn't work when mine worked. Here's an example raw straight from my copy of the game.

I've always had problems testing syndromes in the arena. Try taking control of the infected, walking around for a while, relinquishing control, and then seeing what happens.

Reminder to all modders, one can add sounds to creatures, for adventure mode.

First number is loudness aka distance (in squares), second is commonness aka frequency (1000 for alarm, 10k peaceful).
First form for self "You mutter.", second when see someone doing it "The lobsterman wub-wub-wubs." Third form when don't see creature "You hear quiet beer-drinking."
These are most of the my-Genesis dwarf sounds, some are too fun to spoil here, just go adventure. Feel free to use these as a handy template.

[Agent_Irons]

I have a question about weapons and forging. I was thinking about making bolts out of lead and I realized I didn't know if the weapon metals (iron, steel, bronze, copper, silver, bismuth bronze, adamantine) were hardcoded. Can I add [ITEM_AMMO] to the lead description to allow me to make lead bolts? Can I add [ITEM_WEAPON] to the gold description to allow gold maces and so on?

Like Jaxy said, but then the Civs that have access to gold (if you put [ITEM_WEAPON]) will show up with golden swords and spears (I don't believe it has a good edge but great BLUNT as you already know) you could probally make a custom reaction that will make Gold Maces, War Hammers, and whatever other blunt weapon you desire. I don't know if the Civ(s) will bring the golden weapons if they have the permitted reaction... This requires some Testing *Hugo wanders off*

I realized this the other day while playing the Cthulhu Mythos mod (he added some for humans and animals) and started adding it to some wildlife, it's surprising how much of a difference it makes. It's really cool.

On an unrelated note, how would I go about adding a sort of "exoskeleton" to a creature that has to be penetrated for their skin, bones etc to be damaged? Sort of like armor, I guess. (That's possible, right?)

[Fallen Flame]

You could make their skin thicker, or you could give them a chitin which functions as an exoskeleton

[soul4hdwn]

how do i get a plant to be like underground ooze?  but have a safty of evaporating after a long while (or does weather do that?).

i keep having excessive breaks from this game that cause me to forget a lot of smaller details x.x
