Hey guys im new to the DF modding, just wondering if you could look at my code and see whats wrong with it (a lot most likely). I also would like to know where to place it when im done, not sure its in the right place. Its something like a curse, that sets the person on fire and enables them to hurl fireballs. Thanks guys.

As long as it's in a file called interaction_immolation you've got everything in the right place.  I don't see anything wrong with the interaction.

Is there something I have to do in order to make it able to be placed on a creature in the testing arena?

You already added it with the IE_ARENA_NAME:, when you create a creature in the arena press u until  Immolated One appears.

Right, but it still doesnt show up. Not sure what to do at this point.

I don't think that HOMEOTHERM tag can work, and in addition, CE_ADD_TAG can only add certain tags; I think the game's file_changes.txt file has a list. Also, should that syndrome effect really have an END? It's a pretty short-lasting curse!

[CDI:BP_REQUIRED:BY_CATEGORY:HAND]

Personally, I'd change the body part to BY_TYPE:GRASP to account for the possibility of modded intelligent creatures who grasp using a different part, but it's not a big deal.

If I want to make the cure last forever would I made the end be 0?

Also, im not quite sure im placing the file in the right location. its raw/interaction examples?

[Di]

It should be placed in raw/objects folder.
If you want it last forever you do not specify end of a syndrome at all, just like you've done already, G-Flex must have meant the pain part of it, which is quite short (and I presume quite slight) indeed.
I presume add_tag doesn't accept tags with numerical values as of now (what G-FLEX said actually)

Making the end "0" would make it end immediately. Just remove the PEAK: and END: bits and you should be fine.

[Kuya]

Alright I've increaded the pain duration (I only want it to hurt for a bit). Then added the file into raw/objects as interactions_immolation, but it seems to still not want to work. Does anyone have an example where it was sucessfully put into the arena?
