Will entity_default work? I don't have the other one.

[MaximumZero]

That is indeed the one he meant.

[Hoodoo456]

Ok, thanks.

The character useing that axe-knife will also gain skill at other things classified as knifes .

simply put:

if your shuriken uses the sword skill. and you gain "XP" for every time you throw it. it would eb the same as using a sword. and if you do pick up a sword you'll have the skill of whatever you worked up with your shuriken

Waaaaaaait.  So when I throw a sword, I get sword skill XP each time I throw it?  So I could stand next to a wall with a macro and throw my sword, pick it up, throw it, pick it up, etc?  I need to test this now.

...okay.  That only increased archery and throwing skills, not sword skills (I threw some swords in the arena).  Sad.  (Myth is busted!)


Also thinking of recreating dinosaurs.

...I think this is the information I need.  The rest should just be generic biped and quadriped bodies with scales, eggs, etc.  Plus Cool Parts.  Is there anything that I'm missing?  I need to be sure before I send it off to paleontologists at the local university (UCLA).


In other news:  What does the Armorlevel token on a shield do, exactly?  Also, there's an UPSTEP, but while that makes me think it armors the arm... I've never seen any cases of piercing it, and got plenty of hits on the shield arm.  (I'm making a Jutte that should, theoretically, only help block (pity you can't put block-chance on weapons...)

In other other news: Okay, how do I make wooden javelins?  Specifically, how do I make sure that they turn up wooden in shops?  Can I put the training weapon thing on them?

replace [CREATURE:DWARF] under the MOUNTAIN entity with [CREATURE:COLOSSUS_BRONZE].

don't forget you can change swords skill to throwing and become a legendary "swordsman" by throwing it(or the shurikens) over and over

You could also make weapons use civilian skills... like a sicle that uses herbalism, meat cleaver uses butcher, carving knife uses woodcrafting... and so on.

Are nails still broken ? As in: Get an injured nail, never heals, get infection, die eventually ?

If yes, I would like to fix it.

Add a healing rate to NAIL tissue template?

[Meph]

This, or the removal of nails I think the problem was that the doctor does not acknowledge them as injuries, and they dont get cleaned. I might be wrong though, thats why I ask ^^

[Putnam]

Give the tissue template the [SETTABLE] tag?

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

Give the tissue template the [SETTABLE] tag?

That will just make it so the NAIL tissue needs to be set so it may heal. just adding a HEALING_RATE will allow it to heal like skin.

Then what will you make "everything" scratch with? because there is no "Attack" template that you can simply alter to use a new tissue as the scratches' main attacker.

Code: [Select]

[TISSUE_TEMPLATE:NAIL_TEMPLATE]
[TISSUE_NAME:nail:NP]
[STRUCTURAL]
[TISSUE_MATERIAL:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:NAIL]
[RELATIVE_THICKNESS:2]
[HEALING_RATE:1000]
[CONNECTS]
[TISSUE_SHAPE:LAYER]
Heals as fast as bones do, can change how you feel fit. I think healing slow is good due to nails dont acually heal they "grow back" lol

EDIT:
My guess is since "Nails" cannot heal, doctors reguard "nails" like dwarves with a broken upperspine a "lost cause" and thus ignore it. This is only my opion I could be wrong

[Meph]

Yeah, something like that. I went through 10 pages of the bug-tracker but cant find a mentioning of nails. It is still an issue, right ? That is the main question. I will add your little piece of code anyway, jut to be sure.

[Vherid]

Maybe I'll get an answer faster if I post in here considering this is the thread for this, How the fuck do I do the alpha channel thing with .png tilesets. A lot of them have that magenta BG that doesn't show at all, however some of those tilesets break and then the magenta comes in and fucks everything up. So I would like to know how to fix those without making them just completely transparent if possible, and then I would like to make my backgrounds red to make them stand out more file wise and so on, but obviously not show the red like the magenta.

[Reudh]

I'm not sure. You could try PMing Ironhand, he's the only one of the three tileset makers who's really active on the forums anymore. He did one of the tilesets, btw.
