This article is about an older version of DF.

Everything here can be applied to all creature files, e.g. creature_domestic, creature_standard, even creature_equipment. This includes sentient creatures, but creature tokens should not be confused with entity tokens.


Tokens[edit]

A[edit]

Token Arguments Description
ALCOHOL_DEPENDENT Creature needs alcohol to get through the working day.

ALTTILE CP437 ordinal or 'character' If set, the creature will blink between its [TILE] and its [ALTTILE].

[ALTTILE:157] or [ALTTILE:'&']

AMBUSHPREDATOR Makes the creature start out hidden. Used by giant cave spiders. May make webs hidden too?
AMPHIBIOUS Allows a creature to breathe with or without water.
AQUATIC Allows a creature to breathe underwater, but causes it to "drown" out of water.
ATTACK See the Attacks section.
