No, they don't. They just need the armor defined in their raws.

How difficult would it be for a modder to make nobles play by different rules from everyone else in combat?  Able to keep up with weapon users while wrestling, cause Mayor Urist McHaggar does not negotiate with terrorists.

Impossible.

Is all of that hard coded, then?

No, see here for everything that is currently possible with nobles.

I think I might have made my custom creature too hardcore. They'll come slaughter my dwarves with impunity.  I should make them a civ, give myself an adventurer and roam the countryside with the name... fluffy the cute!
They are dying more in arena though, not sure why...

Please, will someone give me a link to a dfhack and Dwarf Therapist version that works with 34.09? Or 34.10, if it's save-compatible with 09, sooner or later I'll find out how to update genesis .09 to .10 without corrupting it.

This question was answered before, but I lost it... Does a creature need a baby or a child to breed.
As in do I need BABY/GENERAL_BABY or CHILD/GENERAL_CHILD?
EDIT: probably found the answer.
The entire creature or all castes need at least "one" BABY or CHILD tag you can have both for baby->chikd->adult. Also IMMOBILE stops a creature from breeding in fortress mode but not worldgen

GENRAL_XXXX is just a name for the child, just changes the ending. So instead of "creature has given birth to a creature child" it would be "given birth to a creature <GENERAL_XXXX>"
So, am I correct to assume that if I wanted to create, say, a syndrome that causes sterility,
Code: [Select]
[CE_REMOVE_TAG:BABY:START:10]
[CE_REMOVE_TAG:CHILD:START:10]
would do the trick?

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

Acually there is a Syndrome only tag called STERILE

            [CE_ADD_TAG:STERILE:START:0:END:2048]

this is an interaction I use in Project Clockwerk
Code: [Select]
[INTERACTION:BP_BUMP_AUTO_SHUT_BREEDER_DOWN] --- Shuts Breeders, breeding for 2 days
[I_SOURCE:CREATURE_ACTION]
[I_TARGET:A:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_BP]
[I_TARGET:B:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE]
[IT_MANUAL_INPUT:creature]
[IT_CANNOT_TARGET_IF_ALREADY_AFFECTED]
[IT_AFFECTED_CLASS:BREEDER] --- targets only Breeders
[I_EFFECT:CONTACT]
[IE_TARGET:A]
[IE_TARGET:B]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
      [IE_TARGET:B]
      [IE_IMMEDIATE]
      [IE_ARENA_NAME:Breeding off]
      [SYNDROME]
             [SYN_NAME:shut off]
      [CE_ADD_TAG:STERILE:START:0:END:2048]
      [CE_FLASH_TILE:TILE:'X':4:0:1:FREQUENCY:2000:1000:START:0:END:2048] --- to let you know if it's turned off

Oddly enough STERILE cannot be placed on a creature, but can be added through a syndrome. Weird huh?

Okay, so that's why the Wiki doesn't list it under Creature tags.
Somewhat confusing.

I think I'll just speculate on what I said...
When I said we dwarf Armok, I realized that we also act like Epimetheus, although we have a much more... humorous method, involving the dwarves favourite pastime. So, to recap, we dwarf not only Armok, but several classical deities as well.
Modding is fun.

Probably tired of my comments, but do we know any other sites but these:
Cave
Cave_Detailed
City
Dark_Fortress
Tree_City
and the wiki said something about Player_Fortress and Fortress, but said they may not work. I just wanted to know if we're aware of less ordinary different sites.
On a side note, do you think that custom design styles are on Toady's list; as in being able to define buildings, forts, whateverwewants like we can the arena? I just thought of that actually...

I think TOWER is also one

A question: if I were to only ask for 1 bar--not 150, 1--would it make 150 product or would it just take 1 from the bar?

Not sure of this question, but if you mean with reactions, then it depends.. If it the input is 150 and the output is 150, and you change the input to 1 then yes, the product would be 150. but I'm not sure if this is the answer you need or if it answered you...
