I always use Dflang to generate a new language. Very quick, very useful.

Im going to cry ;-;...  I wish I knew this exsisted! I spent like a total of 8 hours on 1 Civ, then I said screw it and used Find/Replace and just jumbled up stuff for other civs >.<.

First time asking questions and unsure if anyone has asked (or has been answered) these but...


1. When the new Magic System comes out, will it be customiseable for modders to add other magic related things with raws?

2. Will the Fortress Mode AI Pathing for Swimming, Climbing, and Flying be fixed before the Magic Update?

3. If we have a Werebeast in our fort and send them out to a hillock, will they eventually worm their way back to fight or cause problems in the hillocks?

ptw

ptw?

Edit: Nvm just found the answer lol

Just noticed this recently, but how do make a metal magma safe to use for anvils?

im 99% sure that it is hard-coded, I havnt seen anything raw-wise about relationships, so I highly don't think its possible to edit it.

What ive learned....


If you have a question and are unsure, feel free to ask, but while waiting for a response, its best to experiment incase u figure it out.

If you plan on making new Civs, take notes on what type of Civ building types each civ is, cuz some wont spawn in certain biomes, ect. Example: Towns/Halmets wont spawn in tundra, same for forest retreats.

Regaurdless of how much modding you do, you will probly keep on having a tab open for DFwiki to double check a lot lol.

From what I have learned for making Entity Civs, or Creatures, its best to use 1 as a base, then change from there.

theres so much to say honestly lol

Legs and air breathing are important for civs

I have come across something odd, not sure if this has been answered or not, but I am currently working on a few things for adventure mode crafting.. and while doing smithing related things.. ive noticed
that I need double the amount of bars required to make the item...

[REACTION:MAKE_IRON_SHORT_SWORD_ADV]
   [NAME:make a iron short sword]
   [ADVENTURE_MODE_ENABLED]
   [BUILDING:CARPENTER:NONE]
   [REAGENT:A:150:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:IRON]
   [REAGENT:B:150:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:IRON]
   [REAGENT:C:150:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:IRON]
   [REAGENT:D:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE]
      [PRESERVE_REAGENT][HAS_EDGE]
   [PRODUCT:100:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_SWORD_SHORT:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:NONE]
   [SKILL:FORGE_WEAPON]
   [CATEGORY:ADV_WEAPONRY]

^ Using that as an example.

The reaction works perfectly aside from requiring double the amount of bars, when its asking for the bars, it asks for 2 bars each reagent, but only 1 is consumed...? Example: If I make this sword, It asks for a total of 6 bars, but only 3 are consumed in the process, with the other 3 still around to be used. Ive tried changing things around multiple times but it seems like this is the closest to having a adv reaction for smithing, just really unsure what causes it to ask for the reagent (150) then suddenly asking for a second part of it (0) before going to the next reagent, this isn't like this for anything else except bars, possibly due to the product dimensions?
