Any plans to update this script for the Steam version?

DF Modding / Re: Lets brainstorm a little bit - What could new Steam players use in a mod?
« on: November 24, 2019, 10:55:47 pm »
I agree with greater customization of starting dwarves in fortress mode, it's a great idea! Other than potentially making things easier on new players, it could also allow particular story setups, like embark with a team of badass warrior ladies, or a pair of parents with a few adopted children seeking a better life, or a group of followers of one particular god that want to start a temple. Awesome all around! And whoever manages to make it possible to also set relationships between those dwarves (e.g. marriages, parents-children, etc.) will forever have my gratitude.
I'd throw in also greater freedom of customization in adventure mode. I ran into lack of those options myself when I was a beginner in adventure mode and it felt terribly limiting and frustrating to me:
- an option to start the adventurer as ANY race + civilization combination even if a given civ doesn't have members from a given race (e.g. elf starting from a dwarf civ),
- making it possible to be a a member of a dead civilization,
- being able to pick any site of any civ from a proper list as a spawn instead of relying on randomization button,
- being able to pick a god to follow from any civ, or even to worship a megabeast (especially with the planned expansion on religion and magic, this would be potentially a VERY desirable option to have),
- etc.

This is exactly what the issue was, thank you!

I'm currently trying to write a script that will gift an adventurer a secret-containing artifact slab from a deity, and includes inserting all relevant events into history. I borrowed bits and pieces from various other scripts and figured some stuff out myself, managing to achieve most of what I wanted. Unfortunately, I got stuck on the bit related to creating an event of deity gifting the artifact to an adventurer. For some reason DFHack throws this error:
Which relates to following line 197 in my script:
The whole script is included below:
The name history_event_artifact_givenst seems to be correct according to https://github.com/DFHack/df-structures. I genuinely have no idea why it's not working, considering the bit with inserting an event of artifact's creation works fine. Any help would be appreciated.

« on: July 29, 2018, 02:52:59 am »For the record, if your adventurer is currently loaded in in adventure mode, you can find their hist figure with df.historical_figure.find(df.global.world.units.active[0].hist_figure_id).
Thank you! Do you perhaps know if there's any sort of collection anywhere that would contain a list of useful code bits like the one you just shared? It would be a really useful thing to have for anybody who's just starting to figure out dfhack scripts.

« on: July 28, 2018, 01:27:03 pm »it's different from spouses, mostly, it's all stored in hist figure info, you can check a look at that for assistance
The tip about looking into historical figure information was useful in narrowing down what I was looking for. Thank you!
With a bit of snooping through other people's scripts, I managed to figure out a very simple script that appears to be working:
Code: [Select]
-- This script makes a historical figure worship the chosen deity
local deity_name = "Liral"
local worshipper_name = "Istra Twinklingeye"
local deity_id = ""
local worshipper_id = ""
local worshipper = nil
-- Looking for the deity historical figure
for _,fig in ipairs(df.global.world.history.figures) do
if fig.flags.deity and (tostring (dfhack.TranslateName(fig.name, true))) == deity_name then
print("Found deity " .. deity_name)
deity_id = fig.id
print ("Deity's historical figure id: " .. tostring(deity_id))
break
end
end
-- Looking for the worshipper historical figure
for _,fig in ipairs(df.global.world.history.figures) do
if (tostring (dfhack.TranslateName(fig.name, true))) == worshipper_name then
print("Found worshipper " .. worshipper_name)
worshipper_id = fig.id
worshipper = fig
print ("Worshipper's historical figure id: " .. tostring(worshipper_id))
break
end
end
-- Creating deity link
local deity_link = df.histfig_hf_link_deityst:new()
deity_link.target_hf = deity_id
deity_link.link_strength = 100
worshipper.histfig_links:insert('#', deity_link)
print(worshipper_name .. " is now a worshipper of " .. deity_name)
My adventurer is able to pray to the deity, and with the help of open-legends I can confirm she also has the deity listed in her Legends entry. The next step will be adding the need for my adventurer to pray to the new deity, and removing the link and need related to the old deity.

I'm playing Masterwork mod (version 1.30, for Dwarf Fortress version 43.05) and I wish to change my adventurer's deity to another civilization's. I don't want to generate the world again or recreate my adventurer from scratch, as I'm already highly invested in them as they are. My adventurer is an elf from a human civ and has a human deity, and I wish to change it to a specific deity from succubus civ, but there is no temple to that deity in the world (I checked in Legends Viewer) so it's impossible to go about it in a legitimate way by joining her religion. I know it's technically possible to create a fort and retire an adventurer from succubus civ there with that specific deity so I should be able to create a temple to her myself, but 1) it would take a long time I'm not really willing to spend on it and 2) I am not sure a player-created temple would allow my adventurer to join the religion anyway (if anyone made this way work let me know, please, it would be good to know!).
I want the deity-worshipper link to be set up correctly so it's potentially possible for the deity to be able to grant a secret to this character. I've looked around for some time but found no ready tool to do it. I would appreciate it if somebody pointed me in the right direction, or gave a few tips how to go about developing my own script. I'm familiar with programming but not with lua specifically. Do I understand correctly that a character's object of worship information is stored in the same way as marriage information and similar character relationships, so I could base it on a pre-existing marriage script by changing "spouse" to "deity" and probably tweaking a few other minor things? Would the link have to be added for both sides as it would have to be with marriage, or is it the deity-worshipper a one-way relationship link and it would suffice to add it from adventurer's side? All help is highly appreciated!
