caste level materials can be done like so:

Code: [Select]

[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:OLOGBLOOD:BLOOD_TEMPLATE]
[STATE_COLOR:ALL:AQUA]
[SELECT_CASTE:OLOG_MALE]
[BLOOD:CREATURE_MAT:ORC_TAIGA:OLOGBLOOD:LIQUID]
[SELECT_CASTE:OLOG_FEMALE]
[BLOOD:CREATURE_MAT:ORC_TAIGA:OLOGBLOOD:LIQUID]

You might want to use other
http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Material_definition_token
including e.g. HEATDAM_POINT or whatever.

You can use SELECT_TISSUE at the caste level and modify it like this:
[SELECT_TISSUE:MUSCLE][RELATIVE_THICKNESS:6][PAIN_RECEPTORS:1]

In your case you might want to use other
http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Tissue_definition_token
such as TISSUE_MATERIAL to replace tissues with fireproof materials.

There are also some
http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Creature_token
HOMEOTHERM, FIREIMMUNE, FIREIMMUNE_SUPER, and FIXED_TEMP
that might be useful (these are all caste level allowed, which is something taht the wiki will tell you for each token you might wonder about)

Thanks! I'll get to work on implementing this. Also, I figured out why my mountain dragons never spawned: they simply die off with no female caste. Definitely fixing my mistakes before I release this.

If any of them are made of fire, throw stuff, run, and think non-flammable thoughts.
