Hey ya'll; I haven't messed with this since last year. I likely won't be updating it.

mead likes to create beeswax instead. the final bit after HONEY_BEE: should be MEAD and not DRINK. I edited it to check. great mod though!

Request: Can you include paper and parchments in the next update, so I can have my adamantine library?

@MuDD Druchi's Race Mod

Thanks it works for humans when i did that

It lets you make items and materials from nothing and also train skills at an accelerated rate

I read that description and still don't understand what this does?? o_o;

Not familiar with that mod but if it replaces the entity file then make sure it's loaded before this one; if it uses a different entity other than Mountain then this wouldnt work.

This doesn't seem to be available in the build menu when also playing with the Drukhii mod.

Will you add soap

thank you for the update, nice work.

I have an idea to increase multiple skills and attributes at once but it'll take a bit to perfect as it'll be more involved than just increasing the skill/attribute gain per skill activation and making a zero reagent skill use option to train things over and over. I could try doing something that dropped skill gain to zero and turned up attribute gain to see if that'd let you train attributes without getting a bunch of legendary skills - the skill used for the training is what determines the attributes and I don't think it's growth is tied to the attribute. IDK. I'll have to try and see! Gonna build a fort with this version for awhile while I tinker with other stuff.

Can confirm growing is in the updated version. I tried throwing some other skills in from older DF versions to see if they worked but no luck.

Sorry for the delay in the update and growing/fix. I had updated a lot of formatting to make it easier on me going forward.

All good, I just updated to a newer version with some more stuff/cleaned up menus etc

i did im just a big old dummy and thought i installed the mod when i in fact uninstalled it

@Mr.Doom existing save or fresh world after enabling the mod? You have to make sure you enable it at worldgen.

i cant find it in the workshop menu

and I found the same issue as Planting missing, couldn't find train planting as well as growing

would it be possible to train many different skills and attributes at the same time with one item?

Understood thankyou!

would it be possible to have options to train attributes without training skills?

Sounds perfect, excited to play it, thanks once more for the mod, it's really great!

You're absolutely right. The reaction is there in the version I have uploaded it's just not permitted in the dwarf entity. I'll make an update in the next hour or so with some changes I've got ready.

Could it be a possible omission of those reactions in entity_patch_altarofarmok? I checked reaction_altarofarmok and it is, indeed, right there, under AA_LABOR_78 (git version), but the entity file goes from 01-75, therefore omitting reactions 76-80.

I think I'm going to start keeping track of ongoing updates via github @ WendigoActual/AoA/tree/main/altarofarmok until I'm ready to upload; I don't want to spam updates and make people create new worlds over and over

RE dining room; you're right. I honestly made that to make it easier for me to make larger dining halls for my fort not individual dining rooms.

One reason I left the bulk furniture cheap was to avoid hitting the created wealth threshold too soon and triggering an attack. I do think I'll add some options for aluminum (super high value and still lightweight to quickly haul) as well as more bulk options for single pieces.

An unintentional bonus, all of these workshop reactions can be scheduled with work orders.

@AHTK plant should be there as Grower.

Right now I'm in the process of reworking things; here's what I have on my list:

* add missing skills (like discipline, fighter, archer, striker, kicker, thrower) - planting should be in there under Grower

* add some armor and weapons to the dwarf list (mask, flail, etc)

* create creatures in cages (hopefully)

* add milled/paste plants, extracts, and single job full armor sets

* finish adding all strange mood mats

* update the reactions requiring barrels to also also allow large pots

(I didn't use metal barrels because I have large ceramic pots which should be equally safe and
very light - I will make an option to make them in an increased quantity)

* rework/streamline categories

* change the graphic from screw press to something cooler like a full armor rack or a
werepanda

* clean up the raws and make sure everything is formatted for easy code
folding/updates/edits/remixes; comment the code where it might help

* make an actual cover image

So, the systems for creating necromancers are a little beyond my abilities right now; but I've been diving DEEP into figuring out how to create custom interactions it'll be a bit. You could dedicate a tiny temple with a statue and then lock a dwarf in there until he throws a tantrum and knocks the statue over getting cursed. Might end up a vampire, though. I only started playing DF around Thanksgiving in prep for this version; so I'm still working through the learning curve of the game and underlying systems.

@Musabi yea i checked man but I'm trying to become a necromancer lol

Building off of the Emperor said; if possible, could we add the ability to add single/stacks of platinum (or other metal) furniture like thrones/desks/cabinets/bookcases and also platinum (or other metal) barrels/bins? The metal barrels/bins are (if memory serves me) safer for food storage as it protects against vermin/elements better. The metal furniture drastically raises the quality of rooms/zones than their wooden/stone counterparts.

a slight change i think would be beneficial; as of now the dining room furniture makes a table and 4 chairs. however, as per Dwarf Fortress coding/rules, only one chair per table can actually be used. So it needs to be 1:1 tables and chairs.

@CainM8 There is an easy way to make your dwarves werewolves/vampires in your fort that is in the basic game. You can go look it up if you want to get spoiled :P

waiting for other races to use bucket :D

(another) humble request: could you add in a skill? I believe Planter is missing from the skills and it's a pretty important skill to have. Appreciate the good work, having a blast making strong dorfs.

Humble request, Any way you can make it so selected Dwarfs can be made into Necromancers, Vampire etc. If not thats fine. Also, Appreciate your work.

that would be wonderful~

Sure, you could have it patch the permitted reactions into their racial entity the same way it does for dwarves. I probably won't get to it for a day or two until I think I've got all the reactions dialed in the way I want them; but after that I can upload versions for elves/humans/goblins/kobolds.

question, would it be possible to let this work for kobold camp, or any of the other race enabling mods?

So, in my play-through I've noticed that, with chores enabled, dwarven children are occasionally using the training tasks despite not having any visible skills. Not sure what impact it will have on them when they come of age, but it could be interesting. If anyone sees the result, let me know what happens. Might be fun or "fun"

Okay that make sense. Love it!

how to add to other races? editing the entity_patch_armoksbucket.txt doesn't work.

Had to remove the 10x hatch and grate options as they were causing a crash. I'll add them again when I figure out the item tokens.

I left out steel shields since leather is lighter and provides the same protection; that way it doesn't impact agility/speed

Awesome!
Just tried it. Seems like it's missing steel shields?
But great work!

@simo381c spawn items and train skills/attributes

What does it exactly do?
