Hm, if I remove the intelligent tag and add the can civ, learn will it keep them from being elected mayor?

I'm going to try this and see what happens, although I wonder how I can mod in dungeon masters to apear quite easily.

[Creamcorn]

I still need help, anyway I was wondering if it is possible to make more than one demon leader appear in goblin forts. Thank you.

no, only one will appear, It's hardcoded. You could introduce different types of powers however, by adding the [POWER] tag to things.

A civ creature can never be tameable, so there is no point in putting in can_civ. Remove intelligent and replace it with can_learn.

you can't rely on this forum for everything. Experiments are the best way to discover what works and what doesn't =)

[Creamcorn]

That's what I've been doing, just recently I had a groundhog diety that was associated with depravity and lust.

And that's why I want to revert back to demons, I just wish that there was someway to have them breed for more fun.

[RavingManiac]

Your 'grooved rifle' should just be called a rifle, since a rifle by definition is already grooved. A non-grooved rifle is just a musket.

[Creamcorn]

Thanks for the fix, just asking but would anyone here mind having their goblins running around with chainsaws and that the axe profession is now called leather face?

[Creamcorn]

O.K. So after working through this whole thing, mostly testing and what not I am almost prepared to release this on to all of you. I first need to know if everyone is interested in what's going on in this mod.

-Goblins are now more sophisticated, and some of their core components are changed.

Spoiler: Details (click to show/hide)

     they wear clothing that's much more expensive
     Some personality things are changed
     Goblins are a bit faster
     Goblins take more damage
     No bowyers for you!
          I also took out many trap weapons, I added in an alarm trap still iffy on that one
     Mining has also been taken out, more on that later!
     More types of demon leaders, not to mention that they are much more buffer than before

-They use overly powered ranged weapons

Spoiler: Details (click to show/hide)

     Rifles of short and long bayonetted version
          They fire minie balls which do 300* bludgeon damage, very fun deaths
     Hand gun, just a slightly stronger version of the crossbow
     Cannons still iffy on these, I can't seem to get them to become cheap on embark mode but maybe I'll just add them to only be made via smelter. For the record they weigh ALOT.
          They fire cannon shot which do 4000 gore damage, pretty much instant death.
     You may need to micromange the ranged weaponry as they all use the crossbow skill
*damage is set up by material+quality remember that!

-I modded in Mephanstera's primative civs mod

Spoiler: Details (click to show/hide)

     Don't worry they use crappy equipments, but do breed in liters
     The creatures are slightly modded
          And are now prone to show up very early in fortress mode, so beware!

-A good amount of new smelter reactions

Spoiler: Details (click to show/hide)

     Goblins can make obsidian from nothing
          Thus making it a very good reason to embark with one piece of fire safe building material at the embark screen. Now instead of digging into the grounds players shall raise black citidals into the sky!
     Due to the no mining you can make iron and coke via special stone reactions, don't worry your goblins can make these things out of nothing.

If you have chainsaws and rifles...why not have chainsaw rifles ala gears of war? Or better the RPC-rocket (or in this case cannon) propelled chainsaw?

[Creamcorn]

Doh, forgot to mention I gave them the ability to use chainsaws, goblin axemen are now called Leather Faces.

As for your last request I'm trying to make goblin society seem all late 18Th centurish, (maybe with an out of place weapon or two) not Gears of Warish, as cool as it sounds.

[Creamcorn]

Hm, still working on this.

Just one request is it possible to give special name tokens to all types of creatures?

I've got most names down but are elite weapon profession names hardcoded?

[Deon]

Well, free smelter material is too cheap for me . I think I will revert it back if I play your mod. The major part of DF fun is mining and discovering new underground features.
No mining is a bit out-ou-place, I mean goblin miners is something I love.

However I like and highly approve other changes.

Free obsidian is bad for me too. Ability to turn any stone to obsidian... looks more interesting.

[Creamcorn]

I'm barely done with this as far as things go; if I were to guess how much is finished I would say <50%... maybe. About the free obsidian and other things, well I have only played forts to test out certain features in this mod (ambush spawns, smelter reactions etc) and in order to have done that I set goblin speed to 1 to get things rolling.

Right now I'm in the stage of making new creatures for gobo killing fodder and challenges. As of now I'm stuck in trying to create custom names for super tough Turtle people proffesions (elite hammer man to Donnatello) and right now I'm stuck in trying to do that.

[Creamcorn]

Hm, I'm am four steps away from being finished with this mod.

-One more animal race to add
-A fun race to add
-Smelter options
-And fully testing the damn thing

Is anyone still interested?

[winner]

If you add the [VERMINHUNTER] tag to hostile or wild creatures, they adopt dwarves without becoming friendly.  This leads great fun as they make a beeline for specific dwarves and then kill them.

At the moment you can only rename professions that end in -man, and the only ones that do that are crossbow and bow. So if you rename anything else it will change back to swordmaster or macelord when it is high enough, but if you rename crossbow or bow it will just become "elite ____" instead.
