Dwarf Fortress > DF Modding

[Done]Question of Close Quarter Combat [knives, daggers etc]

(1/3) > >>

exodius1:
First time posting on the modding side of the forum, I usually stay clear as I do not really understand all the tags and numbers involved. However I have a question I am really itching to know answer to.

Namely: If I mod the dwarves to be able to forge knives, daggers etc, is there a way to make civilians wear and use them? You know, like peasants and villagers in the adventure mode. If yes, could someone walk me through the process?

ThatZommy:
Well, civilians in adventure mode already carry around kitchen knives which they'll use as daggers, but if I remember correctly there is a tag.
I was incorrect, huh. I'd recommend simply making it a tool, and see if that works. While testing you might want to move the cooking/butchering knives into a seperate notepad, so you're more likely to find someone with the weapon.

Thx, I will see what I can do about it tomorrow, but no promises, as I said I get confused by anything more complex than [TRAINABLE]...

ThatZommy:
I've nothing to do today, so I made a couple examples. Hope it helps. Haven't tested it myself, though I suppose that would have been smart.
