Wow, I really messed up the percentages then. Go for 5% then. Enemy Post has been marked down as "whatever".

Okay, the required parameters are as follows.

Code: [Select]
PREGNANCY_LENGTH = 200000
PREGNANCY_CHANCE = 0.0004
IMPREGNATION_REPEAT = 10000

Had to raise the IMPREGNATION_REPEAT up a hundredfold so that PREGNANCY_CHANCE wouldn't just round to zero.

Would think about randomly generating the pregnancy length, but eh. They're machines, so they must have very accurate internal timing, I guess.  :P

Reminds me of a dream I had where I played a communist version of Monopoly.

Every single field was replaced with "Go to Gulag".

That seems about right, I'm thinking of making a Gulag for all of the invaders we catch. They are going to be dropped into a pit, naked, with all of the untrainable animals we catch. And for people who don't know, I snagged the interactions from Glory To Mother Mountain Home that allows a creature to spout communist propaganda once a month or so. The lawnmower script will be implemented later today, any particular place I have to put it? And do I have to change the name of the .text file to anything specific?

Change the extension to .lua and place it into the <df>/hack/scripts folder, and add the line 'lawnmower-reproduce' (or whatever you decide to call it) to dfhack.init.

Billdads. When you eat one of these extremely delicious creatures, you turn into another one, and the cycle repeats.

That seems a bit... extreme. We already have things that convert our noble communist turtles into filthy, disloyal communists. Maybe if we tone that idea down a bit we can do it, but I'd like to keep the massively fort breaking stuff to a minimum.

It's only breaking if you actually let your guys eat Billdad. If they aren't eaten, they are just little harmless animals.

Okay then, if someone wants to make them I'll put them in. Maybe we could feed them to the visitors once we get too many, or something. I appreciate the ideas, lets keep them coming.

Would need to be a drink to feed to visitors.

If you want more ideas, you could splice in the new trees proper density raws.

It would probably be possible to make it so we can brew a drink from their meat or something we get from butchering them, but at that point we would be introducing the transformation meat to the fortress. And I'm not quite sure what the new trees proper density raws are, but I'll try to look into it.
