Question re. obscure, little used, position tokens
« on: February 18, 2011, 07:47:25 pm »
In String Dump I found some position tokens that were unexplained on the wiki. I added them into the position token article but I'm still not 100% sure what they do (although I have an idea of what they probably do)...

The tokens are as follows:
ALLOWED_CREATURE
ALLOWED_CLASS
REJECTED_CREATURE
REJECTED_CLASS

Does anybody know what these tokens do?

ALLOWED_CREATURE doesn't seem to do anything (I couldn't get it to work when I wanted to bar all but a specific caste from used ), although come to think of it, it may be useful to prevent things like trolls electing themselves mayor (ie, intelligent pets with high social skills claiming elected positions).  Although probably not, see below.

ALLOWED_CLASS works, only castes have the specified CREATURE_CLASS can be appointed to the post.  Elections and world gen seem to ignore these restrictions.

RESTRICTED_X I didn't test, but at a guess they are in the same boat as the ALLOWED_X tokens.

Unrecognized entity position allowed caste token:
Unrecognized entity position allowed creature token:
