Because there are not many anime fans here? DF is western fantasy after all

You'd be surprised :P

Wrong thread, bud....


Does anyone know how, if possible, to designate which weapon that thieves use?

In:
[CE_FLASH_TILE:TILE:168:3:0:1:FREQUENCY:200:100:START:0:END:100000]
does anyone know what the arguments of "Frequency" do specifically? 
(Wiki says "TILE:tile number:colour:FREQUENCY:?:?")
I believe the arguments are "ticks showing normal tile":"ticks showing alt tile", but I'm not sure about that.

Flash Tile seems to behave just like you suggested.  Also, the Display Name works like I had hoped, it is appended after his normal profession name.  So if I append "Hornblower", the full name displayed is "Malatug Temptrouts, Orc Farmer Hornblower".

I don't believe it is possible, no. So you can't get them to all wield poleaxes or something even if you want to.

I've noticed that thieves and babysnatchers will only use weapons in their entity that have [SKILL:DAGGER].

CE_DISPLAY_NAME

Also note that citizens affected by this in fortress mode no longer show up in Dwarf Therapist.

That sounds about right, thanks. Now to see if this works with ranged weapons.

Is it possible to make a creature always wield a weapon when it comes on the map? Or is there at least some walk around that can allow them to make their own weapon? I have a creature who would be doing a lot better if it had a way to generate a sword, but can't figure out a way to get it one...

The only way that I know of doing it is to give them a sword as part of their body and then have an extra butcher item that is the sword.

Already have the sword body part, though thanks for the suggestion. It is juts that sword body parts can't block and I can't get it to do the damage I want... Thanks anyway.

Why can't you get it to do correct damage?

It is mostly a balancing thing. What I currently have is strong enough to kill a dwarf, and it even works like I want against tanks, but against things like helicopters and bombers I can't get it to act right.

Okay, another question... I'm creating things, but they don't show up in game OR in the arena! How do I prevent this from happening to me constantly?
