Urk dasha, blood beast, zombie, skeleton.

Wow those are awsome Thank you very much there will be more creatures and races that will be added in time. This work nicely

EDIT: is there anyway to assign a caste a graphic? As Skeletons have a Bone Golem, and a planned Lich on the way. And zombies will have a Behemoth and a Headless Monk (looks like a ring-wraith from LOTR but instead of being invisable wiht only the robes to give it away it just has no head unde ther hood.)

EDIT: if there is no way to assign a caste a graphic then I'll just do a workaround, by assigning a certain skill (blowgunner) the image and make the desired creature be naturally good that that skill.

The mine shaft is a pretty neat concept. 

Does it actually produce copies of the items used for input when "retaining" them or does it produce weird things like "copper lamp lamp"?  I recall having some trouble with the GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT token in the past where it would do things like that.  I tried to make a reaction once to re-stack ammunition (by grabbing a whole bunch of it and using GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT for the product), but I remember getting things like "cow bone bolt bolts". 

I suppose this could be completely circumvented by not assigning a material to the tool items (or using a specific material and then specifying that material in the product), but I'm curious if you got it to work where it would retain the original item's material.

Also, I think it's high time we pestered Toady for some multi-level buildings.

Yup, I had made all the 'mining tools' unimproveable because during some tests a standard lantern came out as a masterpiece after a legendary miner used the mine, So now tools you put in have a chance of breaking. I wanted to add, digging for ore. But I figured the ToR took care of that by making copies of whatever ore its used orb is made of. I also had issues with spamming with the Mineshaft. If that continues I might have to use a idea 'The Master' had come up with. Same with the ToR if people somehow spam items I'll have to make it harder to use or dangerous.

plain and simple yes it retains the reagent's material for the product.

I'm just getting warmed up! Everyday I unleash a flood of new ideas upon Hugo! _{someday he might drown in it when the idea tiles reach 7/7}
If you want to discuss ideas, PM me and I'll give you the link to the chat we use. I won't give the link to trolls, hence why I'm asking for you to PM.

[The Master]

I've got a bunch of new ideas, feel free to contact me or hugo if you want to share some of your ideas too!

Just thought I would share this modified dwarf therapist to manage the castes better.  It is a modified version based on Jeisler's Genesis one. 

Step 1, download Jiesler's modified Dwarf Therapist:
http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=52988.msg2469808#msg2469808

Step 2, In the Dwarf Therapist directory, open the etc directory and edit the caste_default.txt file.  Remove what is there and put in this:

[MALE]normal
[FEMALE]normal
[MALE]war
[FEMALE]war
[MALE]hunt
[FEMALE]hunt
[MALE]priest
[FEMALE]priest

Looks great after you cleaned up the main post. Will be following!

I planted some tower-caps and fungiwood, let them grow then processed them and now have sprores and spawn in stock.  I am getting spammed with messages “cancels Plant Seeds: Needs tower-cap spawn”.   And nobody want to go plant the spawn and spores that was produced at the woodworkers shop.  Any ideas?

Can you zip/rar the save, upload it to DFFD and PM the Link? Because they worked fine for me, but then again I could have only did the intial planting and then carried on to the next project. As my bug testing is very short and I miss alot. But if this is a error, It shall be fixed and then I will have to quicken the next release so others can enjoy "tree farming".

Altho with college being my main concern my modding has been drawn to a crawl. But I shall try and update/aid in any way I can.

Edit: To everyone one of the reserved posts have been converted to Concept Art and perhaps fan art.

What is the failure rate of creating orbs of regeneration?

What is the failure rate of creating orbs of regeneration?

I seem to have neglected to include that info in the "Using the Features" section, there is a 45% chance that a orb will be made (55% chance of failure) but once a orb is made it is yours forever.

EDIT: I have edited the OP to include this info, thank you for bringing this to my attention

[Varnifane]

Awesome. Thanks. I thought I was doing it wrong.

[The Master]

AHEM. Hugo has been VERY VERY busy lately due to collage. For now, PM me for help.

I think I may have drowned in that 7/7 Tile of Ideas that I and "The Master" have come up with. After my... Long departure from this mod, It's time to get back on the horse. Or at least learn how to ride again. First and foremost is completing the Paper and Acid industry. Then sorting through Ideas and setting which ones to get DONE fastest.
