LAND_HOLDER_TRIGGER works together with LAND_HOLDER in the position, with the number for each number it works for each one.

So for example, Land_HOLDER_TRIGGER 1 is for Barony, which requires     
20 population
    100k created wealth
    10k exported wealth

Hit enter too early....Well that is from the wiki. As the wiki continues to say, you need all three met to get an offer for barony. If you don't like exporting, you can set the exported wealth to zero.

give all flying creature a creature_class:flyer and all not-flying creatures a creature_class:ground, and then have the machine gunner only target "ground" and the anti-air only target "flyer". I think that might be possible.

Is that possible? That would be pretty cool.

Then I wouldn't have to worry about the CIWS (What I am using for anti-air) being overpowered. I don't have the explosives worked out like I want for an immobile unit like the CIWS, but if I could get a slade machine gun up, it might work like I want it... Kind of difficult to do though?

I am really surprised you keep dwarves and goblins in it... this sounds more like humans against humans of other nationality

It is still a fantasy mod. Its just now instead of having dwarfs and goblins fighting with swords and shields you have dwarves and goblins fighting with guns and tanks. Still have dragons, giant tanks, necromancers, humanoids with healing factors,  and annoying hippies. Its dwarf fortress, if it had been set in a modern setting.

You could me the workshops 3x2, with impassable blocks like this:
1:1:1
1:0:1

with the dwarf standing on the 1. Make 4 workshops, one for south, east, west, north... horrible solution, but would work

Ah, that might work. But then they can't go next to each other. Maybe 1x2 like this?

If you could tell me what exactly you mean by this, sure.

When you get hit by something with heavy impact, like a bullet shot by a goblin in testing, the thing hit with it flies back. This is really bad when the thing is immobile.

[IMMOBILE] makes creatures immobile.

Is that what that does? Huh. Explains a lot. Well better go change the building back to the original idea. I had the reaction moved when it didn't become immobile, raws still there....And balancing. Then sleep. Thanks for the info.

Notes for next update, still looking for suggestions:

I am planning on letting you do something with the interrogation of the goblins next. I want to make them able to produce the your own missiles and drones in the future, but I will have to find out how to make a pet without using something else. I am thinking of adding a more movie-style weapon for using them, maybe a Gatling gun with a high fire rate, but requires a large dwarf to use? I could really use some help coming up with ideas for that, though.

I am also thinking about adding some more races, to add some difficulty to the game. Which is on the new pole, tell me what you think!

Now to kick off the new wave of updates:

I finally got the helicopter rockets to work like I wanted. They sometimes FF though, might need to balance later.

I also added the Machine gun and plan to make a building out of it later. It is basically a glass cannon made to take down a lot of infantry, a single MG should be able to stall a small squad of goblins. It is made with machine gun nests in mind, and moves slowly, put the nest behind some fortifications and you should get some good results.

Next up: Anti Aircraft! Now that I am adding the deadly bomber and helicopter, you will need something to help you against them (Assuming I  can get them to show up...). This will be made with anti- air in mind, with rockets specifically to use against said enemies and possibly some additions.

And of course the poor neglected civilian sector will be getting things soon. Keeping with the theme of new pets, I am planning on making a "Car" pet that boosts the speed of a dwarf for a certain amount of time. It should be a little rare and expensive, but you may be able to get your hands on a couple.
