tag library
« on: August 29, 2010, 06:52:13 pm »

has anyone ver compiled a library of possible tags (for creatures, objects, etc) and their effects? i seems like something that would go without saying. I can't find one, am I just looking in the wrong places?

Hmm. I could be mistaken, but I believe the term usually used around here is tokens (unless you're referring to something else). Do a wiki search for creature tokens and it should take you where you want to be. :)

Either term is acceptable. I prefer "tag."

But yeah, the wiki's probably the best place to look for lists of the things. There's probably still a lot of missing information, though.

Yeah, I was just trying to steer him in the direction of the search term (God knows that held me up for ages when I started). xD

http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/Category:DF2010:Tokens Each link will lead to a list of tokens.

http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/String_dump You can find some tokens in this dump of all the text in the .exe of DF. Some are not used yet or are only used on randomly generated creatures, no descriptions of what they do so your mileage may vary.

I've got a mediocre list of tags/tokens on my guide. I however haven't compiled them in a form that is easy to work with yet. That'd be time consuming.
