Errorlog doesn't say anything, you have to use DFHack or some other weird test to tell if it went wrong.
What's the test?

Oh.

Also: Is candy thread and cloth dyable? And if I made a metal have the same process, and made the thread dyable, would the metal it produces have that dye affect them?

Like, say, this is a randommetal wafer. It is midnight blue with exceptional dimple dye. This is a randommetal sword. It is midnight blue with exceptional dimple dye.

Don't bet on it. Looking at the thread dyeing reaction with the Alt-A tweaking GUI shows that the only eligible inorganic materials are the divine mystery stuff.

And wafers are just metal bars by an other name.

unit.body.blood_max should be about equal (with a 50% uncertainty, though it will very really go that far) to the BODY_SIZE divided by 10.

is there a way for a creature to not be able to die from bleeding yet still have blood?

'What is life?', you ask. Fundamentally life is the apotheosis of pointlessness. We live to multiple. But what for? The Endless cycle of carnage pulls hardest on the furthest victim. An inescapable fate; one no one wants but we all desire. The more immoral we become the more ideal we are. A perverse oxymoron. We who live unencumbered but are the most burdened. We fight but at the end it is all for naught, as in life there are no winners; only the undistinguished.

An absolutely vast creature has an equally vast amount of blood to drain.

There really isn't, though. A hit to a major artery (throat, heart) is invariably fatal in a few ticks, no matter the size.

Just remove the major arteries tags.  It won't prevent bleeding to death, but will make it rare.

No. I'm not sure anything would happen at all.

Is there even possible to make a pet do normal dwarf works like mine/fell wood/smelt ores?

No. Maybe in the next version, since we will be able to get working non-dwarven residents.

Why are you doing something so inexact? I found exact body size info once while playing with GMEditor, don't remember exactly where it was, but I could find it again.

I think that unit.body.body_size_info or something similar is around, yeah, but I forgot what the values within were.

unit.body.size_info.size_base and unit.body.size_info.size_cur. There is also information for the fraction of fat and muscle and such. (Just had to look through these for my attack script)
