You could try having them transform into something generic for a few frames. Maybe make it so they are mandrills for a moment. Mandrills are cool.

If I remember correctly you cannot, but there is the multicmd script that lets you do what you want.

Questions about forced vs. common vs. uncommon for items in the entity files;

So say I take away all of the items that goblins get and just give them one forced weapon. If 100 goblins invade, will all 100 have the same weapon?
Now what happens if I give them a second forced weapon, will 50 goblins have the first weapon and 50 goblins have the second?
What if I change the second forced weapon to a common weapon, will all 100 have the forced, or will some take the common?

thanks for the help.

Roses,i believe that yes,all 100 would have the same weapon,but that's only because they have only one weapon to choose from.as for the common/uncommon/forced,my theory is that they work a little bit like the points in the traffic system.that is,the AI chooses the chances of a squad carrying a weapon by counting these three values.so if i'm correct,you will have a 50% chance of a squad carrying a particular weapon if they only have two weapons to choose from,but if the second weapon is common,the common weapon would appear more rarely but still you would see squads carrying it.if a forced weapon had a 100% of appearing,then only only one would be allowed pet entity and no other weapons would ever appear.

Bringing up a question of mine that got buried on the last page, is it possible to make materials with syndromes that take effect upon encountering bloodstreams? I doubt it, but it'd be extremely cool.

[SYN_INJECTED] would work, but probably not just from jabbing someone with a Withering Iron Pick.  I think the syndrome-carrying material needs to be a liquid, which would mean engineering a weapon that conducts a "bite-like" attack.

Yeah, you can, just add [SYN_INJECTED] to the syndrome. But unless the material is a creature's venom, how are you going to get it into the bloodstream?

EDIT: Ninja'd

How would one go about making a biting weapon? THAT would be truly awesome.

Do we have any idea what all the changes to the raws will be in the next version? I am wanting to start making creatures and items and such again, but don't know if I should just wait a month instead of having to change a bunch of stuff. Thoughts?

Interesting, looks like mostly just additions and not so much core changes, so I can go ahead and work on stuff.

I see a couple new USAGE_HINTS there, is there a list for tokens that got new arguments?

What's the exact function of the [SAVAGE] tag with respect tot the Calm/Wilderness/Untamed Wilds Spectrum? Do creatures with it appear only in Untamed Wilds, or just appear there more often than Wilderness biomes?
