How do I reduce dwarven religious tendencies?
« on: January 16, 2016, 11:40:04 pm »
I've been rooting around trying to find what creature tokens, personality traits or mental attributes govern: how many deities a creature worships, whether they're a dubious/faithful/etc worshipper, and how important worship is to their effectiveness.

Has anybody successfully messed with these?

Personality and values might be a good place to start...

The RELIGION entity token can be used to change from a PANTHEON to a REGIONAL_FORCE, which may or may not unbug the current "Can't pray to Carl, God of Biscuits because I'm too busy praying to Almighty Steve From Accounting" bug.

As for dubious/faithful worshippers, I had read that (at least in adventure mode) the more a creature prays, the higher tier of heavenly butt-touchery they achieve. I have not tested whether or not this is the case in fortress mode, but there doesn't seem to be a token that impacts how hard they pray.

My guess would be that praying works sort of like a job that will gain exp but instead of dabbling,novice,legendary etc you have dubious and faithful.

Look at the "entity_default" Raw file for dwarves. Remove all religious spheres (or leave one maybe). There is also a list of values (further down the same entry). You'll see things like knowledge, commerce, peace, martial skills, nature, etc. Try to find something religious and give it a value of -30.
