If you choose to play as a nuisance race like the kobolds in adventure mode, If you press to 'C'ustomize the adventurer last name it crashes.

The lack of a language I guess.  I'll throw in a check.

I don't quite understand... How do I choose to play as kobold?

Typically by editing the kobold's entry in the raw and adding some tag.  Humans, elves, and dwarves all have it.  [PLAYABLE] or something obvious like that.

Yeah, that's it.  I knew it was something obvious, but not having delved into the raws I didn't know for sure.

[Nite/m4re]

No, [ADVENTURE_TIER:<value>], unless you use older versions.

[ThePaladin]

Thank you ))) That's fun )))

[ThePaladin]

Actually [INDIV_CONTROLLABLE] is the right thing to add. I have the latest version.

[penguinofhonor]

Don't you have to add both?

And kobolds don't have a language, Toady? Really now? How do they get their names then?

Wondering that myself, They don't have a [TRANSLATION:*] tag which is required to tell what language file to name them and there engravings etc. off of.

[Squeegy]

No, no. It's because they don't have LAST names. Instead of 'Dwarf' DwarfyDwarf or 'Kobold' Koboldykobold, it's 'Kobold'.

[Toady One]

They don't have a language with translations.  They just have meaningless utterances, though I think a few of them occur specifically in the context of calling out their kills in adv mode, but that's less meaning and more tone/mood.  The kobold language functions by temporary associations and the immediate context, and it can't really be used to convey long-term information.
