Savage creatures only show up in savage biomes, according to the wiki.

It's the order in which the [CASTE tokens are written; [SELECT_CASTE] has nothing to do with it.

Does ce_material_force_multiplier affect attacks used with body parts, and not just weapons? Say a creature has a metal horn or something, would it get the attack bonuses against a creature that has [CE_MATERIAL_FORCE_MULTIPLIER:MAT_MULT:METAL_HORN:2:1] ?

Mat multipliers can lower damage taken from more than just weapons.

It affects all damage taken from specific materials, which includes weapon attacks, natural creature attacks, and even falling damage involving the affected material.

Though I'm not entirely sure how natural attacks determine which body material to use for the attack's calculations. But if the horn is only made of the affected material, then I can say for certain that the damage it will do will be lowered by the material multiplier.

You probably want MAT_MULT:CREATURE_MAT:whatever creature:METAL_HORN

out of curiosity, how would the product tag look for beds look?  This is what I'm thinking right now, but I wanted to double-check.

 [PRODUCT:100:1:BED:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:C]

Also, what is the tag for a forge / magma forge workshop?

You may need a :NONE added to the end of the product line.

[PRODUCT:100:1:BED:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:C:NONE]

I don't believe reactions can be added to forges, unfortunately. The wiki says that the only valid vanilla buildings are KILN, SMELTER, TANNER, KITCHEN, QUERN, MILLSTONE, STILL, and CRAFTSMAN, plus the soap maker and screw press.

1.  well I'll try it and see what happens when I get a chance to get on my desktop later.

2.  More items for the smelter then, I guess.

Sorry to ask again but I'm wanting to make sure ahead of time whether these will work, I just get the feeling something is off:

You are missing the reaction IDs. Each reaction must begin with [REACTION: whatever ]. The ID can be anything, just so long as it isn't the same as the ID of another reaction.

For the first reaction, you should change the amount in the bar's reagent line from 1 to 150, since bars have a size of 150. Otherwise the reaction will give you 150 metal beds.

They are also missing their skill tokens.

Question for Fort Mode: How do I make my modded civ able to complete tasks? When I tell them to do something they just walk around doing nothing. I tried to make horses a playable civ.
