Will interaction-trigger fire when a regional interaction affects a creature, maybe using the HIST string as if were the verb?

I'm trying to run this script on each instance of a specific species of vermin that appears.

I have a work-around, but it doesn't do quite what I want.

Edit: typing on a phone sucks.

If you are just tryting to run a script on each vermin then I would suggest making the regional interaction only effect a certain syndrome class and then simply using syndrome-trigger instead. Unless I am not understanding what you mean.

[expwnent]

For interaction-trigger it would have to show up in the event log. It doesn't look at historical events.

[Dirst]

Thanks Roses and expwnent, I'll have the regional interaction target all castes of that creature with a syndrome and trigger off of that instead.  It's better than the whole species mysteriously getting CLEANed by the environment every week.

I finally figured what was wrong with spawnunit. Comparing side to side a natural pet with a spawned one I made o differences and fixed them:

Code: [Select]

    unit.flags2.resident = false;
    unit.flags3.body_temp_in_range = true;
    unit.population_id = -1
    unit.status.current_soul.unit_id = unit.id -- Was not set when creating the soul

    unit.animal.population.region_x = -1
    unit.animal.population.region_y = -1
    unit.animal.population.unk_28 = -1
    unit.animal.population.population_idx = -1
    unit.animal.population.depth = -1

    unit.counters.soldier_mood_countdown = -1
    unit.counters.death_cause = -1

    unit.enemy.anon_4 = -1
    unit.enemy.anon_5 = -1
    unit.enemy.anon_6 = -1

The last three anon values are the most important. Those caused the creature to initiate a fight when the save was reloaded (I suppose that's when the enemy cache was to be rebuilt). This did not cause a loyalty cascade and the animal was listed as a perfectly tame pet, only it acted like an enemy. By default it was set to 0.

The other values might have their own importance. I'll clean the script out of its debugging stuff and send it. Note that I am focusing in creating animals, so there is still issues in creating citizens.

[Max™]

So I was trying to figure out how to poke around in various things easier and I realized that I didn't need to go through and type out gui/gm-editor df.global since you can just replace the

Code: [Select]

qerror("No valid target found") line with

Code: [Select]

my_trg=df.global
So it will load up as normal when targeting a dorf or item, but it defaults to loading the df.global page, is there a good reason to not do this?

[Bo-Rufus CMVII]

Is this a bug?  I never noticed it under 0.34.

If you reveal the map, dig a bit, and then unreveal, the new dig is blacked out.  Even a dwarf in the new area when you unreveal will not make its own tile visible.

Apparently they cannot path through the area either.  Plus if you re-designate some at the edge to dig (to make them go there), they will decide that it's not a valid dig spot, the designation is removed, and the square is blacked out again.

[Putnam]

That also happened in 0.34, and AFAIK has happened ever since reveal was released. Use revflood to fix it.

[lethosor]

That's expected, since "reveal" stores information about which tiles were revealed when it was run, allowing "unreveal" to revert its changes.

[Max™]

You can also use tiletypes h 0 on those squares to unhide them.

[Dirst]

I'm back with my troublesome vermin

First, I can report that Boltgun's fixes don't generate any errors when applied to normal or vermin animals.  The affected creatures also didn't rampage on a re-load, so far so good.

Second, syndrome-trigger doesn't seem to be able to find named syndromes defined in regional interactions.  I don't know how to use a regional interaction to apply a syndrome defined in a material.  Is there an event I could hook into instead that would fire when a creature (preferably a certain type) appears on the map?

Third (which isn't a DFHack thing), the vermin behavior I wanted them to have doesn't seem to work anyway: the wiki claims that vermin pets are carried by their owners, but I've yet to see that happen.

For anyone keeping score at home, this is warmist's spawn-unit script with all of the hotfixes I know about:

Code: (spawn-unit.lua) [Select]

--create unit at pointer or given location and with given civ (usefull to pass -1 for enemy). Usage e.g. "spawn-unit -race DWARF -caste 0 -name Dwarfy"
--[=[

        -help

            The caste's number, optional
-age <number>
    The unit's age in years, defaults to 15 if omitted
        -name <doggy>
            The unit's name, optional
        -position [ x y z ]
            The unit's position, will try to use the cursor if omitted
        -civ_id
            The unit's civilisation, will be the player's if omitted

Sorry, I have only been able to loosely follow what has been going on with the spawn unit script, so these questions may have already been answered.

1. Does it allow for spawning of both friendly and hostile animals?
2. Does it allow for spawning of hostile entity creatures (they don't have to be entity members, but just CAN_SPEAK or CAN_LEARN invaders?)
3. Does it allow for spawning of friendly civ members? (from what I have read this is still a no)
4. Does the friendly and hostile animals extend to semi and megabeasts?

4. Does the friendly and hostile animals extend to semi and megabeasts?

1. Yes.  Give the animal a civ_id of -1 to make it hostile.  You'll need to escape it as \-1 on the command line.
2. I think right now it assumes any animal that's not -1 is friendly to the fort.  Would need some additional checks of the provided civ_id to iron out the kinks.  Intelligent creatures skip all of the fixes, so I'm not sure exactly how they'll behave.
3. Badly.  You end up with a nameless peasant with no relationships or personality.  Might be what you want if you're going for a golem.
4. It uses the text creature ID and the numeric caste (picking one at random if none is provided), so there's no reason it shouldn't work with semi and megabeasts at a basic level.  Obviously, they won't have lairs or anything, and I highly doubt it would trigger announcements.

Nice cleanup Dirst, I'll use that one.

I also added orientation in my local. Creatures spawn asexual so animals will have the 'marry' flag for the opposite sex as true and intelligent creatures will be based on raws. I think we are getting to the stability of the 0.34 version of this script.
