#1: Put the Alarm Siren in the Military Garrison, it fits and is one buildings less.

#1: Keep the Alarm Siren seperate, I want to have it near my other levers.

#2: I have traded with Gnomes, build Artificer and Weather Control Station.

#2: I have NOT traded with Gnomes, did not have the chance to build their buildings.

Yep, soap and generic body parts are still buggy, only leather/skin works just fine so far.

The "virus" would be the 2 dfhack tools. dfcleanmap.exe and dflair.exe.

And a teaser:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

But dont get excited, it is just the layout. The actual coding behind it will be a lot of work. I might not be able to pull of everything I want, but most of the things should be possible. My main concern right now is that VB has changed a lot in the 10 years I havent used it ^^ The whole thing is based upon the LazyNewb Pack, as everyone can see.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I'm just finally fleshing out Frost Giants (had alot of errors, improper tags, and unused BP's and Plans)

Also the teaser looks close to the simple C# programs I made last semester.

@Meph
I will be PM'ing you the list of TO-DO's I have choosen ATM soon

[dagger]

Soap is buggy, we still need to drop the fix in. use

[PRODUCT:100:150:BAR:NONE:INORGANIC:COMMON_SOAP_TEMPLATE] we are still in the midist of cleaning up the raws and making it all "Nice"

EDIT:
Also the old Connan the Barbarian FTW. Arnold was a pretty good action star.

Thanks for the quick reply on this.

Your welcome, Hopefully I'm right. As all these "generic" materials and tissues are scattered, and that one was my closest guess to the correct soap mat

EDIT:
Also someone a few pages back mentioned this

[Meph]

Actually, the current version should produce soap, but anyway, I check

Good news everyone:
The settings idea... works. I managed to write a script that replaces the vanilla tree setting with the one I use in this mod. All you have to do is press a button. This is a simple Yes/No selection. I dont know yet about multiple settings, but I will try. It should work the same way from what I've seen so far. I will have to add some specific lines/tags to all the raws that will be changed, but it works.

EDIT: Mh.. not as easy as I thought for multiples. Instead of Simple, Vanilla and Advanced I could, however, write 3x a ON/OFF script. Simple: ON/OFF, Vanilla ON/OFF and Advanced ON/OFF. Clumsy, and only works if people set two of them to OFF, but it would work. Still, I will try more with the multiple settings, before resigning on the easier, but less elegant solution.

No luck with If statements in the program?

If (simple == yes)
{
*USE SIMPLE RAWS
}
else if (advanced == yes)
{
*Use Advanced Raws
}
etc...

EDIT:
does your designer have a "Events" onclick/changed command for buttons/radio buttons? (Not only do I mod but I program too.)

[Putnam]

Yes, Fortbent.

Oh, ah, forgot to ask:

can I take some of the automaton-type creatures (turrets, mines, etc.) from this mod to put into the automaton mod? I've been working on that recently and I feel it needs a bit more. I think this mod's stuff would be perfect.

[Meph]

Well, the output works with boolean, true/false. I have to write a new one with strings.

@ putman: Sure, you can use them. Hugo did make a nicer body for the mines though, and as I said, I'd like to alter them a bit. But if you want to current version, go ahead

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I did make a New Mine Body and setup to make it more "mechanical" but my power goal for regen is to make a fully mechanical steampunk mech. (planning for it is done, but making it will be a challenge, and challenge I mean setting all the tissues up. You know gears, pistons and hydrolics)

[Putnam]

So I just made this:

I consolidated all the landmines into one creature (a creature that should be more compatible with the mod's features than the mod was before I did this!) called LANDMINE. Note that there was something in the raws, don't quite remember what (except that it was a syndrome), that said [IMMUNE_CREATURE:LANDMINE:ALL]. That wouldn't work if there was no LANDMINE creature, but now there is!

This is going into the automaton mod, by the way

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I think your missing the [NO_SPRING][NO_SUMMER][NO_AUTUMN][NO_WINTER] tags, with Frec set to 0 it will default to 100 and wild ones will roam the caves (not sure if thats the case for frec but its better safe then sorry.)

[Putnam]

Hmm, so I am. I also have two ALL_ACTIVE tags.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I must have missed those dupe tags while I was tinkering with Meph's old mine to improve it.

[Putnam]

Also, what's with the [BODY_SIZE:20:0:5000]? That means that they'll be size 5000 at 20 years old, but they don't have a size before that at all, so I'm guessing it's just setting them to 5000 from "birth".

[Meph]

Hehe, the mines were the first thing I did ever in modding. They are hacked together parts of random creatures Thats why I said: Wait till we implement Hugos body for them

Edit: Sry, forgot to answer the question: Yes, if a creature has no baby or child size, it will be grown up instantly.

Do you have a download link for your mod ? I would like to add it to the .exe I'm working on.
