Does anybody know what tag it is that controls ghost formation? Is it just the same as strange moods where any playable civilization can form ghosts?

From the Wiki:

After the death of an intelligent creature or a dwarf, its soul may occasionally come back as a ghost.

From that, I think the tag [INTELLIGENT] makes ghosts.

I know I had the idea that the [TRANCES] tag controlled ghosts, but I'm not sure where I got it from.  There are only dwarf ghosts in vanilla DF, and I believe they're also the only ones with [TRANCES].  It's probably something worth looking into.

[Putnam]

There was also an idea that only [TRANCES] creatures get moods, and I think that's untrue as well.

[Trapezohedron]

IIRC, removing trances still gave me moods, but it was only one kind of mood, which might have been because I gave NOEMOTIONS or whatever that tag was to my creatures.

Is it possible that the smelter gets an automatic reaction for every ore in the game ? I added some metals, and -bam- the smelter can smelt them, even if I dont want to.

Any way to deactivate that ?

[Putnam]

Make it so that the metal doesn't have ores, instead using custom reactions.

[Meph]

I will make the mineral drop non-economic boulders then. I just assume that is what you ment I had hoped to use the ores though, because of easier balancing with the percentage.

[darklord92]

[TRANCES] only affects if the creature can go into a martial trance. I think the moods and ghosts are hardcoded. if it's not an invader and it dies the game gives you time and than randomly decided to make a ghost or not.

If by "percentage", you mean "mineral scarcity settings", then as long as it's not a layer stone, it'll be affected by those settings. Also, you can still have them in clusters, veins, etc. even if they aren't ores.

[Meph]

No, I did mean: [ORE_OF_X:percentage here]

Your deadly culling gas uses a deadly_gas_template btw, I do not have it.

In the raws, under raw/objects in the Dwarf Fortress folder.
