By the way, I would like to suggest that the price of a plant's seeds should at least partially map to the price of the plant itself (I'm pretty sure that in-game most seeds cost half as much as the plant)

Nope, all seeds in vanilla DF cost one dorfbuck each.

That's only because all of the SEED materials have [MATERIAL_VALUE:1] - increase the value, and seeds get more expensive.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

As a bit of a diversion, I've adapted this script for a somewhat different area. Work in progress examples:

Spoiler: Horses of Myth (and of mundaneness I suppose) (click to show/hide)

There's a lot more to be done - I haven't even added attacks yet or tested things in game, but I thought I share.

Is this supposed to close after it creates plant_random and nothing happens?

Yes.  That's what it does - it creates a raw file containing procedurally generated plants and then exits.  You can then copy that file into your game raws, or open it and manually copy over the plants you like.

No, I mean that it closed right after it created plant_random.
When I looked inside, it just had
Code: [Select]
plant_random

[OBJECT:PLANT] in it.

When the program runs, it should open a dialog box asking for a directory.  Navigate to your raw/objects folder in your DF install, and select that directory.  It won't do anything useful unless you first show it where the DF raws are located.

It just generated a cactus with a blood-cough syndrome.

I've noticed that a lot of the liquid and powder extracts are severely undervalued compared to the default plants, which have material values of 20+. Any way to change the script to get closer to these? Some variation would be appreciated, of course.

Yes, although I don't think they really do anything.  Ingested poisons don't seem to work at the moment, so you'd have to get them in or on the target some other way.
