i have two caged fire imps and a few questions..

the first being "now what?"

2. how can i edit the creature so that it can be made tamable by dungeon master and therefore escorted to the butcher shop?

3. i can't see anymore in my magma pipe, do they respawn if i kill them or will they breed if i dump them back in the magma?

Now comes the fun

2. how can i edit the creature so that it can be made tamable by dungeon master and therefore escorted to the butcher shop?

Find its entry in the raws and add [PET_EXOTIC] and the Dungeon Master can tame it.

3. i can't see anymore in my magma pipe, do they respawn if i kill them or will they breed if i dump them back in the magma?

No and no...though if you're editing them to be tamed then you might as well edit them to breed while you're at it, adding [CHILD:1] to the raw entry.

i have now two tame fire imps WOOT  so i was wondering how i could tell the gender of them to make sure that they can breed together?

[Frumple]

I... the same way you tell the gender on anything in the game? Should be v -> somethingorother, then you'll see the ubiquitous gender symbol (Cross-y is female, pointy is male, on the freakish off chance you'd not known.). Pretty sure it was like that in 40d, too. Just loo(k)ing at it might work too, dun remember.

Oh, right. If there's no symbol, there's no gender. They won't be breeding, in that case, 'least in 40d. I think.

This is what i see but fire imps might not have a gender so ill have to mod in a gender system.... not sure how though.

i have had these guys forever and they wont breed anyone have any ideas on what i should do? i added the child tag and the exotic pet tag and also a tag for the child name.

You're pretty much stuck I'm afraid. Even if you cut out the [NO_GENDER] tag, it will only effect new fire imps. Since feature populations don't replenish, you're stuck with the existing ones, who shouldn't be effected by any raws changes.

I believe it's time to study http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=47319.msg950789#msg950789

Remove the NOGENDER tag, I'm not sure if this will work for creatures already on the map though.
