Give them a raise interaction with a huge cooldown, only one traget, and make it so that after only a few turns the raised dead dies again. This way, you get towers, but not armies of fire monsters, which might be a bit OP.

Nor do i, but someone did some for me. Anyone here know how to do workshops?

Well, if you are doing Adventure Mode type stuff, I would say that you should take some of the stuff from TechFortress once we have a working build - save yourself some effort. As the eternal magic freak, i would suggest interactions of a more sci-fi nature - make it so that there is maybe a Science system, whereby you have craftables in the game interface, similar to bone carving, but while some of the things can be crafted by any old hoe, some of them require SUBSTANCES, which special interactions can allow you to... emit. In this way, gaining the "secret" of Explosives Engineering lets you build your own Grenades. The substance only represents the knowledge required to craft the item. So if you have, say, the Power Gauntlet crafting recipe unlocked with the Bionic Sciences skill, you still need Steel, and Electronic Parts, and Robotic Parts to actually BUILD one. Such a crafting system would require skill in the area of both interactions and crafting systems -as well as a bunch of work. but you said ur pretty experienced, so i figure you could handle it. Also. Add many megabeasts. EVERYONE loves megabeasts, amiright?

give a summon interaction with a 100 year cooldown that summons a useless minion for 1 tick, worldgen will still make armies that build towers as promptly die when you start playing. But the monasteries and martial artists will live on

So... it should work if I just write [SYN_CE_CAN_DO_INTERACTION:CDI:INTERACTION:SUMMON WOLF]

SUMMON WOLF is the name of a pre-written Druid interaction that gives Druids the ability to summon wolves via CALL_WOLF - if i write that in, i should get a Druid?

Doesn't that code only work for interactions? i need the liquid to inflict an interaction, i.e. turning a Dorf into a Dorf Necromancer when drunk, or alternatively, let it access a pre-written interaction from a different file - the file for a Druid that can summon wolves also includes the Summon Wolf spell. Do i need to re-write the interaction into the file for the Inorganic as shown?

Pretty direct, i need to make a liquid, when injested, cause a character to be affected by a specific interaction. I'm trying to use CAN_DO_INTERACTION - ill post an example.

In any case, what do?

Very little on Cthulhu Fortress - but i have done most of the work on the writings of The King in Yellow - in essence, to cause a person who has read it to, on a full moon(no its not perfect, but its still quite lovecraftian) turn into a Hastur - which is a megabeast. And he will be right in the middle of your fortress, so he can eat lots of people. I have't done very much on the creature of Hastur, which will be in many ways humanoid, but with some extra appendages and abilities.
