...Okay, that's very odd. Anything from the proper file you made there? What's it named?

[mineforce]

I named it ectobiology.lua

I copied the code you gave me and I pasted it into a txt. Changed the file name extension to .lua then I  putted it into into the scripts folder.

Wait, no, give me the whole traceback.

You can copy from the console by right clicking the top of it, clicking "mark", highlighting the text and pressing enter.

...Wow, I can't help you there because I've never seen that error before.

I forgot to mention that I'm using version 40.23

It's a parse error, would you mind pasting line 8 of your script? You may have put the wrong syntax there.

    local children=0

I figure it may be something to do with text editor weirdness.

That's my guess too, maybe some end of the line char is mucking up the script.
@mineforce: try creating the .lua file using notepad++, the built in notepad is "not the best" to put it mildly.

Okay, so assuming this actually works i would first set two people as lovers/spouses in their historical id, then target the female with this .lua provided and they will have a baby and genes from both parents? I've been looking for this for a a long time if so. Thank you so much!

[Putnam]

It doesn't matter if you target the female, you can target either male or female.

If you use the argument -freeform, they don't even need to be lovers.

Oh rad a thread about breaking the game over your knee.

The thing is, I want leatherworking reactions to do the same thing as the clothier reactions: force a CLOTH-type improvement made from the base material onto the end product. Is there somewhere I can see what makes the default reactions tick?

[Putnam]

Anything that isn't in the reaction raws isn't properly a reaction.

Also, what do you mean by CLOTH-type improvement
