Is there a DF modding tutorial anywhere?
« on: April 07, 2011, 11:04:45 pm »

I really want to know how to mod DF as it brings a whole new level of Fun.

(Btw, I know NOTHING about modding. I'm probably going to need a pretty explaining tutorial)

The first post of the first link is for an older version. Reaction-made products have quality now, and reagents in containers can be called for. See the vanilla 'honey to mead' reaction for an example.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.
Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

Or just go ahead and ask "how to do it" in the modders' workshops thread :).

Depends on your learning style. I find the forums good for specific questions, but I get a lot out of looking at the raws and chasing things back to the templates.
