Hmm, that's odd.
Just allow rejections.
It might need fine-tuning.

He used wrestling to grab it, and then used shift-I to gain possession.

The only one that isn't possible is the second one, and that's only impossible by changing just the worldgen parameters.
If I get a bit more free time I can whip up something that fulfills all of those.
How many minerals?
Do you mean "Everywhere" lots or "Frequent" lots?
EDIT: Here you go.
I'm assuming you know this, but go to the data folder. Within the folder is the init folder. Paste this into world_gen.txt.
A rundown of the very general stuff about the world:
Small world. 10 years of history. Worldgen and the calendar will be very fast.
Metals are very frequent but not everywhere.
Savagery values are capped at ~25. I'm assuming this means primarily Calm areas with some Wilderness.
Evil tiles are half as abundant as good tiles, making the world slightly less likely to eat your skull with corpses.
HFS cranked up from 22 to 100. The variety is massive.
No vampires, but werebeasts still exist.
[TOTAL_CIV_NUMBER:#] changed from 10 to 12, just to be safe.
There ya go.

If the king dies, it'll choose a next of kin, who may or may not be in the fort.
If the current king lacks any next of kin, I guess it's random.

TREES.
They will lure you into a false sense of security with the fact falling from short distances no longer can cripple you, and then BAM.
You fall because your agility wasn't high enough, and your neck is pulped.

DF General Discussion / Re: New Players "Why are you Hooked?"
« on: July 10, 2014, 04:55:48 pm »I guess it helps I'm a fast learner - it took me mere hours to learn the basics of fort mode and less than a half hour to learn adventure mode, and about an hour for modding.At this point I don't count as "new" anymore, since I've been at this for a few months now, know tons of stuff, and even have my own mod (it's in its infancy, but still). However, I can say that the things that kept me playing?Despite me having been here for two years, I consider the two of us on the same level. We're both fairly successful modders and we've both had our share of overseerships.
The insanity, the difficulty, and how (relatively, compared to other games) easy it is to change things.
Yes, the modding was a hook.
Unlike most other games, where the content is closed-source, DF keeps the majority of its content outside the inner workings.
I learn FAST.
Other games take me mere minutes.

Clearly the king died somewhere else (maybe to the zombies), and your blacksmith was his next of kin.
It happens now.
Someone had a king as one of their original 7.
Their civilization died.

Well, it makes controlling the value of worker-class rooms a bit easier.

DF Suggestions / Re: Have elves preserve endangered species.
« on: July 10, 2014, 11:51:26 am »
In my opinion, elves should care about endangered species but not actively preserve them.
If the populations of wolves are very low in a region, elves will be horrified more than they usually are by you killing one.
They're tree-huggers, not valiant protectors of wildlife.
They do seem to care at least a little.

It should depend on their personality.
Ones with martial inclinations should attack cities for more bodies, while more passive-natured ones sit in their tower and revive the bodies of things that try to kill them.
