Where am I going wrong on this creature?
« on: October 02, 2014, 06:37:49 pm »

I'm trying to mod a playable kuo-toa like civ, but the error log wouldn't recognize the tissues etc. Where am I making the mistake?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I copied and altered the dwarf body. I'm sorry about the dwarf comments; didn't have time to remove em.

Giving it

HUMANOID_NECK:

to its body will make it work in arena.

Although
Code: [Select]

PISCESI:Unrecognized Creature Token: MULTIPLE_LITTER_COMMON
is still a thing and it doesnt have a tile.  Rather it has a black fore and background.

Yeah, MULTIPLE_LITTER_COMMON isn't a thing.  You want something like
[LITTERSIZE:min:max]

Ahh, do I? Thanks.

So, neck is needed? OK, I removed the neck to basically give them a head attached straight to the body.

So, the thing is, the BODY:NECK object actually contains the tags that create the connection from the head to the spine.  If you remove parts from the body you have to make sure that the remaining parts connect to each other.  This might involve modding your own new body templates.

http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/v0.34:Body_token
See the CON, CONTYPE, and CON_CAT, and CONNECTOR tokens; and then look at the BODY:NECK to see how it uses them

You should try troubleshooting it in the arena.  Thatll help you figure out if its the entity or the weapon.

It's the weapon raws. The titles go ITEM_WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_xxx and not WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_xxx.

[BABYSNATCHER]s are automatically hostile to non-snatcher civs.

Radically different ethics will not guarantee war but will increase the chances.

I did, and as the weapon doesn't even show up, it its probably the weapon. I also discovered that females can stomp two dwaves in a row into the ground and only get a bruised hand, and that, despite being smaller, males can take down a dwarf. I might need to scale them back.

It's the weapon raws. The titles go ITEM_WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_xxx and not WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_xxx.
Ahhhh.... thanks.

Ok, any reason why it keeps crashing at worldgen without anything in the errorlog?

That depends on a lot of things.  Maybe you are trying to run too large a world.  Maybe your entity files is bonked.  Maybe something is corrupted.

Youd have to tell us when it crashed in worldgen.  When it was trying to place terrain?  creatures? civs?  finalize sites?  during data cleanup at the very end?

Well, its always part way through the history of the world (small, 125 year history, high civs, savagery and beasts and freq minerals.) It tends to be around year 20-40.
