The size thing has been brought up before, I actually reduced them quite drastically already, originally they were as big as horses. I don't remember exactly where i got the number from but i think it was the general consensus at the time? Anyhoo, it's not exactly hard to change, but there are several entries, some castes are bigger than others (workhorses for instance)

The size is mostly a matter of relative size, they are bigger than most animals, yes. but they are still smaller than griffons, buffalo and the changeling soldiers (tho drones are smaller)

Draconequus are in the planning document, but i think it needs more spell interaction. I probably wouldn't go straight to .mov when beefing them up, probably do more spell like effects and interactions instead.

yeah I usually use that to compare my original file changes, the amount of changes I do to the animal file to remove the animal men is quite excessive tho and it's hard to see if toady added an animal or changed something there.

It should, but doesn't
As long as the Tanning labor is enabled the tannery building is available and/or the reaction to make leather is active the Civ has full access to leather regardless of ethics. The fact that these buildings are also hardcoded means DfHack is the only way to remove them in this way.
Generated Ponies will trade, wear and carry leather items with impunity.
All core DF features are still covered in the current version, Fleece is considered Leather for leather items and moods, bones is available from butchering, since that's actually not possible to remove.

This mod is also not made to really be compatible with adventure mode, that was WAY out of my scope when I initially started this.
It's delivered as is, with full rights of everyone who can be arsed to change or add whatever they may want to their game, and share with the thread, and I've  implemented a bunch of changes people have made to the "official" build when I've been too busy to actually update the damn thing myself

If you want to play with butchery enabled, it's fairly easy, just don't overwrite any of the default materials and tissues I include with the mod, and re-add the buildings and reactions to the entity file.

Hmmm, that sounds pretty unlucky if i remember the ratios correctly, you should get predominately drones

All four pony types are already in, there's an infancy of a spell system in the files somewhere, but that will also require a bit of work to fully flesh out. Due to time restraints unfortunately I'm only doing bugfixing in the mod at the moment.
The biggest problem with extensive DF modding is that it's fairly time intensive and it's very easy to break things if you don't concentrate on what you're doing. Result is that currently I just don't have time unfortunately.

Hopefully I'll be able to take some time to fix this stuff properly but as of yet such a time has eluded me, so no promises this time

I honestly don't know exactly how my personality changes will affect things like tantrums in the new mental system.
Are they getting any negative thoughts at all?

It works with Phoebus no problem, there may be incompatibility with mods that add seperate creature sprites as I've changed the raws to remove animalmen. If you use one of these make sure you use one with a patch tool and not just a RAW file replace.

I have the files for stonesense, but they need to be reworked to the new caste system.

There are 1200 castes.
there's about 20-30 lines of nested code for each.
Then you add foals, which is another 20-30 lines, per caste

Despite my best efforts I have not managed to automate this process without fault yet.
