An Itemcorpse Problem:
« on: December 09, 2010, 01:45:29 am »
Statues can be 'of x'.  For example, 'An obsidian statue of a longnose gar'.
I am trying to get a creature, called 'lavafly' though really it doesn't matter, to upon death ITEMCORPSE up a statue of itself.  The problem is that while I get statues just fine, they are of utterly random things, like goblins, and _, and lonenose gar, and literally any other creature in the game.
[ITEMCORPSE:STATUE:NO_SUBTYPE:INORGANIC:OBSIDIAN] produces these randomized statues, as does replacing NO_SUBTYPE with just about anything (that is to say, it doesn't affect anything it seems).  I can't seem to figure out how to get it to produce one specifically of the creature in question, so names LAVAFLY.
How does one do so?

I don't think you can get a specific statue.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that at the moment you can't specify what type of statue its going to be when its created.

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!
