Yeah, I had a line which culls the UNTOWARD words when generating plant names so you don't get rape sticks and such.  Toady removed the UNTOWARD words from the word file, which means the script crashes when it tries to remove them.  This script really isn't guaranteed to be compatible with 34.x in general anyway, it was written for a much older version of DF.

I assume it might viable solution to get an older version of DF, gen the plants, then paste them over?

Edit: This worked

what version number?

Neh. Just look through the code for the line with UNTOWARD and edit that out.

Ok, I've updated the script.  It's still really outdated, but it should work with the current version.

Thank you, this is a really inspired idea, be interesting if dwarf mode had this sort of thing prebuilt into it for whenever you generate a world.

maybe I'm just dumb, but can't get it to work.

Have you thought about doing some more syndromes and tweaking of this mod?  I remember using it when it came out, made some minor modifications to use it, myself, with the new version before you fixed it up here... but I always noticed that the created things were pretty much of the strange temperature, makes soap, and alcoholic varieties.  It doesn't generate anything with strange material types like feather wood, won't make metallic trees like the "Ironwood" that exists in many mods, and other stuff of that nature.

It might be nice for the program to read the raws, look for random materials that seem to be related to the symbols chosen, and generate occasional plants made of them.  With mods, it could even lead to "Heartwood" (literally made of animal heart) and "Sladeroot" (tough eating, strong drinking)

Your work at procedural animal breeds is an awesome idea.
I wish feature inheritance was a thing DF parsed. It would be cool to let Urst McTrainer develop new varieties of Dogs and Tigers over generations of breeding pairs.

But I digress. The closest parallel is your idea here, Your example with Horses. I hope your still interested in this project.

yep, still can't get it to work.

There is a lot more I could do with this mod, especially with the interactions and other stuff that's in the newer versions of DF.  I really don't have the time at the moment unfortunately, but I might revisit it at some point in the future.

Made another fix just now.  Download and try again, it should work this time.

I do enjoy your scripts!  In a previous version of dwarf fortress I was generating plants, when I decided to remove the vanilla plants and kept generating.  I ended up with a new plant called "cave wheat" and some other homonyms.  When Trees were added to DF I searched through my collection and copied and converted every "Stick" plant (and some others) to trees.  Later with Grasses being added, I did the same for "Grass", "Hay", and other plants as Grass.

loving it

Any plans for a mineral generator? Metals and ores too?
