These are scripts that attempt to expand raw modding a bit.


itemsyndrome
Version 2

A script that allows modders to apply syndromes to creatures who are wielding items.

Example usage:


Cursed weapon that only curses dwarves!
Bin of speed!
Protective armor that halves damage!


And more, definitely possible with this script.

You need to put itemsyndrome into your scripts folder and the line "itemsyndrome" into your init, of course. Requires DFHack for obvious reasons.

Since 1.4, I've kept up a changelog because adding new examples was getting tedious!

1.4
Added [SYN_CLASS:DFHACK_WIELDED_ONLY], for your magic wands and such.

1.5
Added DFHACK_STUCKINS_ONLY for... I don't know, you'd think ADD_SPATTER's good enough But it was asked for, so I made it.

1.5.1
Updated for DFHack 0.34.11 r3.

1.6
Script now recognizes spatters on items. The spatters should still correctly check for how the item is equipped, too.

1.7
Items can now have syndromes independent of materials, like so:
1.8
Now recognizes when unit is already affected with a syndrome and acts accordingly.

1.9
Fixed an issue with contaminants and added compatibility for syndromeTrigger.

1.10
Allowed multiple inorganics for items.

1.11
Added a few arguments:

"itemsyndrome" or the argument "enable" will enable itemsyndrome. If you have any arguments at all, "enable" is required to enable itemsyndrome.

A number in the arguments will set the number of ticks between checks. 499 is default.

The argument "disable" will disable itemsyndrome.

1.12
Added "debugon" and "debugoff" arguments and fixed a showstopper.

1.13
Made debug more verbose and added "ContaminantsOn" and "ContaminantsOff" (non-case-sensitive) arguments. Also sped it up in general.

2
Extreme speed-up due to complete change in how it goes through units for assignment.

projectileExpansion
I couldn't figure out how to get interactions done with things, so this is the next best thing!

This script expands projectiles a bit by allowing 2 things:

1. Flows can be spawned on projectile hit with these reaction classes:

DFHACK_MIASMA
DFHACK_MIST
DFHACK_MIST2
DFHACK_DUST
DFHACK_LAVAMIST
DFHACK_SMOKE
DFHACK_DRAGONFIRE
DFHACK_FIREBREATH
DFHACK_WEB
DFHACK_GAS_UNDIRECTED
DFHACK_VAPOR_UNDIRECTED
DFHACK_OCEAN_WAVE
DFHACK_SEA_FOAM

A few of those need an INORGANIC attached, which can be chosen with this (using copper as an example):

[REACTION_CLASS:DFHACK_SPECIFIC_MAT]
[REACTION_CLASS:COPPER]

2. Commands can be done with the following reaction classes:
\COMMAND
commands+args...
\ENDCOMMAND
Only one per mat, for now.

There's a special argument for the script commands: \UNIT_HIT_ID, which uses the unit that gets hit by the projectile as the argument.

3. If the projectile has a syndrome, it'll automatically give the syndrome to the attacked unit.

Changelog:

1.1
Added "disable". Allows you to disable. "enable" now required to enable.

2
Optimized. A lot.

forceEvent
Allows you to force an event. Syntax is simple:
"force siege EVIL" forces a goblin siege.
"force siege FOREST" forces an elf siege.
"force migrants" forces migrants.
"force caravan player" forces a caravan from the player's parent civ.

There are other events that can be done; just type "force" to see them.

Changelog:

1.1
Migrants no longer requires an argument.

removeRelationship
Removes all relationships from a given unit. Selected unit if no argument, specific unit if given an ID.

moddableGods
Allows gods to be modded in-game, like so: Must be enabled with the command moddableGods in dfhack.init.
