My response to the poll:  I'd like for the mod to be more modular. I really like to mix and match mods for whatever mood I'm in.  I think it's awesome that you've inspired Deon to add a modloader to the Genesis mod too. :D

More engravings/plants would be nice too. 

Thanks so much for the mod!

@ghills: 120 new plants, 120 new trees, and 75 new engravings are not enough ? :P

Modular: If you mean that this mod should be compatible to other mods, I have to disappoint you. It is far to big for that. BUT I can add components of other mods into this.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First testing is good. NO errorlog, and this is the dfhack prospect. Looks like I want it, the only new metal not on this map is slade and wolfram. Ilmenite is the stone that bears titanium. Might rename it.

Fossils look good as well, all there. The only curious thing is the amount of shark jaws. They have the same occurence numbers as trex skulls, but there is an immense difference in the total amount of them. weird.

is the variance possibly due to the fact that shark jaws can produce random amounts of something? just a thought in relation due to occurrence of 'pure' ores of copper versus mixed ores.

I actually took air men out. I couldnt figure out why they are so pre-dominant, so I killed the entire race ;)
Good! Still raging over my lost fortress, was doing pretty well.

Also, I don't know if you know this (using .9), but the Magma Safe Workshop's products still list as "Unknown Material". Also, I noticed that my dwarves don't even use any rock to construct it at all. Maybe they make them from beard hair?

A little teaser preview. I tried, and cant find many bugs. The metal reactions are (almost) done, the temple does not kill, when set on "repeat" and the research lab reactions are (almost) done. Thats it. These are some of the finished features so far.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Anyone got a good name idea for the "Creature Research Lab" ? It is run by alchemists, who have the profession name: Sciencedwarves, it uses items dropped by semit/megabeasts to make one combat skill instantly to Legendary. The item is called Essence (if you have a better idea, go for it) and the reaction is called: Make a "combat skill here" legend.

Hope you like it so far.

EDIT: Reserach lab reactions are done, tested and work. Metals are done, tested and work. :)

Call it a "trophy transmuter" or something. BTW, thank you for the code, I will look into that :).

Two questions for you, Meph.

1) Do you mind if I write my own version of the potted plant for LFR?  (credit given, of course)

2) How exactly does the "creature research lab" work?  I tried to do a similar thing once by having a reaction produce a large number of stones which would harmlessly vaporize on creation, but this ended up causing crashes.  Also, if we're throwing out names, "altar of vanquishing" seems appropriate, though you might be looking for a more science-oriented theme.

@crustypeanut: In the current version the guns are broken, sry. You can still get them, but cant produce them. Is all fixed for the next release though. Gunpowder needs smelting skill, bullets use metalworking and the guns use weaponsmithing. In the fight they use blowgunner for ranged, and spear/knife.

@deon: No problem. I also posted some fixes/code in your thread, hope you found it useful.

@narhiril:
1. the potted plant is super simple, and done by deon ;) But i guess it wont hurt, if more people use it. It is purerly decoration though.

2. I got crashes as well when I make a boiling stone, which is weird, I dont know why, since the other boiling stone reactions work. I create 250 poweder currently, called "essence residue" and added a job to the workshop called: "Clean residue" removing it. it is set to automatic and uses no skill, so the dwarf that got the legendary skill will most likely clean it up immediatly. Might raise it to 300, since i just got a legendary +1 out of it. Dont want to disappoint with someone just becoming grandmaster ;)

Here the raw:
Code: [Select]
[OBJECT:REACTION]

[REACTION:TRAIN_BEAST_CROSSBOW]
[NAME:Clear essence residue]
[BUILDING:BEASTLAB2:NONE]
[REAGENT:100:250:POWDER_MISC:NONE:INORGANIC:ESSENCE]
[AUTOMATIC]

[REACTION:TRAIN_BEAST_CROSSBOW]

@narhiril: Redone it a bit, now creates legendary skills for sure.

Code: [Select]
[REACTION:CLEAN_ESSENCE]
[NAME:Clear essence residue]
[BUILDING:BEASTLAB2:NONE]
[REAGENT:A:750:POWDER_MISC:NONE:INORGANIC:ESSENCE]
[AUTOMATIC]

[REACTION:TRAIN_BEAST_CROSSBOW]
[NAME:Make a crossbow legend]
[BUILDING:BEASTLAB2:NONE]
[REAGENT:A:1:TOY:ITEM_TOY_ESSENCE:INORGANIC:PLATINUM]
[PRODUCT:100:750:POWDER_MISC:NONE:INORGANIC:ESSENCE][PRODUCT_DIMENSION:150]
[SKILL:CROSSBOW]
And the missing inorganic file I did forget ^^
Code: [Select]
[INORGANIC:RESIDUE]
[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:SLIME_TEMPLATE]
[STATE_COLOR:ALL:BLACK]
[STATE_NAME_ADJ:ALL:essence residue]
[DISPLAY_COLOR:0:0:1][TILE:'#']
[SOLID_DENSITY:2787]
[IS_STONE]
[MATERIAL_VALUE:20]


@ALL: Testing is done, no errorlog, no bugs, clean embark selection. I also, finally, cleaned up and sorted the raws. Modder will have it easier next time to find things in the raws, all reactions and buildings are sorted and named. Took a lot of body, body detail plans, inorganic mats, items, creatures and material templates and put them in one file for each category, called: category-name_masterwork.txt

I changed the graphics for landmines, they have now tiles instead of graphics and have castes. Just one creature now, this way you get way less of them with migrants. same for golems, I reduced them to one kind, cheaper to buy, better fighter, but weaker armor. This way you dont get so many for free, but can buy more of them. They should now be a lot better balanced.

Made Automatons a bit more steampunky.

Hydraulic fluids are now harmless. Cause only short dizziness. and dwarves should be immune to it.

Added smithing accidents. Smelting ores now has a low chance of an accident (burning wounds for the worker) and metal poisoning (syndromes, similar to arsenic poison, might be harmless, might be hurtfull, might be deadly (very rare))

Added metallurgist, a workshop for alloys
Added arc furnace, a workshop for the new metals
Added gem workshop, creates gem weapons/armor, encrusts weapons/armor with gems, cuts big gems into smaller pieces.
Added transmutation chamber, transmutes precious metals into weapon-grade metals, and the other way around. Also allows to create fake gems.
____________________________________________________________________________________

Generally speaking the next version is done. V.1 :) Only for phoebus though. I dont know about the other tilesets yet.

Testing showed no problems, I will now write the GUI for the new version, then update the manual... will take a while ;)

EDIT: New building guide is done, here the changes. The javeline caster was a copy of the soap maker, just in red, and magma and normal one was identical. I made new ones that fit better. Also redone 3 workshops, the display case, and the new buildings :)

Shouldn't it be 0.10, not .1?

Or maybe 1.0?

So what do you need? Just all the tiles set to be the correct ASCII tile? I can do that.

@putman: It is V.1 as in: not 0.xxx but actually done, finished, here you go, grab it and run ;) Edit: Ah, now I know what you mean. The . is for the V. to shorten Version to V.  The actual number is 1

@teh zip file: Yes. I know it is a lot of work. I need the raws with proper tile numbers for other tilesets. Again, my problem is that I dont know if things look right or wrong while testing. I hate to ask you (again) since you have done this already... twice. :o The buildings have to be redone as well, but this I can do, with the nifty workshoppainer.exe :)

If I get a finished tileset version, I will add it to the download and the GUI as an option. Till then, it is phoebus only, since I use it for work and play.
