Oh dear...
« on: September 22, 2011, 08:24:55 am »

You know how when a creature kills a dwarf, it stays homicidal even after you tame it? I got this perfect, huge, fat, cave crocodile, but he's tasted dwarven flesh, so he's currently on a labored rampage around my fort, eating animals as he sees fit. He's apparently too bloated to keep up with dwarves, but the job cancellations will be making this fortress/cave croc breeding ground impossible to play. Can I mod the world.sav so that he isn't...you know, murderous?

<-- Has no idea what just happened.

He likes gold, native gold, trees that are made of gold, and tungsten. He likes cats for their haunting meows. He needs dwarf fortress to get through the working day. When possible, prefers to consume Potatoes, cheese, cow milk. Absolutely detests elves. And spiders.

But...it took me so long to get 'im, man! I really would prefer not to have to cull this perfect stud croc, if possible.

Not sure, but I know Runesmith allows you to toggle a lot of different states for creatures, like 'caged,' or 'invader,' possibly including [DWARF_FLESH_DEPENDENT]

If nothing else, you should be able to contain the beast via cage traps and whatnot.  A male can be a breeding stud while in a cage.  Only the female needs to be free.  Casanova Win.

Works for me. Just to be safe, I'd assume that training him into a war croc would make him getting loose worse, no?

While you're at it, why not see if it can satisfy it's need for dwarven flesh with elven flesh?

Also, I embarked on a One-Eyed Devil's lair, and it tends to hang out in my volcano, jumping out at and chasing down migrants every once in a while. It didn't touch my king, who just showed up (for the first time!) right next to it, so that's good. I guess.

Your king is clearly in league with the HFS.  Has he mandated any adamantine or slade items lately?

Nope, and I checked his thoughts & preferences and HE HAS NONE. No friends, no likes/dislikes, he worships a god of metal, and he's so far simply content.

Give the man a chair, he deserves it. 

Interesting, I suppose he's a surviving 'first generation' dwarf from worldgen?  Are they inherently immortal, or is it because he's the civ leader?  I think we can see the root cause of his awesomeness; he's in touch with his Id.
