Did you dig the structures responsible for souls? Is it possible now to transfer a soul from one unit to another?

[Roses]

I haven't worked much with souls. It's on my list of things to look at, but IndigoFenix has done some good work with them. His post is here.

[Roses]

So here is an update on my progress. I currently have all 67 classes done, including class and leveling bonuses, attribute requirements, skills, and very rudimentary descriptions (I will work on those more over time). I have also added the ability for different races to have different names for the same class (just for some flavor). For instance, I don't think Squire and Knight works too well for Dwarfs, so there version is Hammerer and Legionnaire.

Now I need to work on the 700+ skills for the classes. I have been doing about 50 a day on average so it will still take me some time (I'm hoping to bust a bunch out this weekend). Unfortunately I am sure the numbers are unbalanced, but I am doing my best. Then there will be a testing phase of the skills, just to make sure they at least work and don't have any errors. Then I will release the class and spell files.

That's the current update.

Here is a list of current classes (without the name changes for different races)

I like the mix of D&D-feel and other sorts of games in there.

It's hard to come up with names for some of these classes. I know the roll I want each one to fill (in terms of skills and stats) but actually coming up with names is a huge pain.

[Max™]

It turned out neat, doesn't come across with the generic feel you get in a lot of class systems.

[Roses]

Sorry for the lack of updates, I have been busy preparing my thesis and job hunting. But when I have had the time I have still been working on this project. Earlier I had posted a list of the classes I have been working on, and now here is a list of spells I have made for the magic classes (abilities for the physical classes are still being worked on). Note that there are ~600 spells, with about 500 of them working correctly. The next step is testing out numbers. I am translating this all from a D&D-esque game a made, so I know how strong I want each spell to be, but it's not a 1-1 match to DF obviously, so right now I have weak spells that are better than strong spells, and other oddities. When I am ready for general testing and feedback I will post all the necessary files.

Also note that there are 5 spheres of magic in my game; Arcane, Divine, Elemental, Mental, and Nature. And each sphere has different schools (e.g. Fire is a school in Elemental, Time is a school in Arcane). None of this, however, is necessary for use in other mods or in DF itself (when I actually finally make my mod based on the game world it will be a large part of it, but that will be in the mods thread, and won't be for awhile I am afraid)

it's defined 2 lines later

functions/unit.lua, function changeSkill, utils is used but never actually defined

tonumber(spellTable.RequiredLevel) <= currentClassLevel in functions/class.lua function changeClass gives me a compare-string-to-number error; should probably put currentClassLevel in a tonumber as well

persistTable.GlobalTable.roses.SpellTable is never defined

i'll probably try to set up the newest version of fortbent as a testbed for the class system... especially since i'm not altogether aware of any other mods using it

EDIT: Why am i posting here, i'll make a pull request once i get the class system working

Thank you for your work and the pull request. And as far as I know you are the only one that currently uses it. Pull request merged.

I think the assumptions that the EntityTable is based on are entirely wrong as of 0.42.04, since I can't seem to get it to work no matter what I do. Trying to fix it doesn't seem like a good idea, since I don't know what it's trying to do.

Interesting, I was wondering if all the changes made would cause trouble with that. For now I suggest just disabling it. I actually haven't looked at the new version at all yet, so I should sit down and go over everything that has changed in both DF and DFHack.

I know that most of your effort is going toward updating, but have you made any progress on add-attack (or attack-add as it's called in the OP)?  That way I won't need to worry about creatures biting with their tails

Appreciated... the bigger issue is making sure that the creatures get into a proper fight, but even just the one valid attack makes my mod much better than it was before you told me about this script.

So I am going to fix this issue this week and came up with a couple different solutions.

1. Add another token you can call, something like -attack BITE, it will then look at the attacking unit and see if it has a declared BITE attack, and if so use that attack (regardless of what body part you declared the attack with).

2. Look at what body part you declared, then look at the unit and see if it has an attack associated with the body part, then use that one.

3. A combination of the above, where if -attack isn't declared it looks at the body part, and if it is it ignores the body part.

2 and 3 are definitely the most work, but maybe are the best moving forward. The question for all three becomes, what if the unit doesn't have the desired attack. Does the script just not add an attack? Or does it pick a random attack the unit does have? Thoughts?
