ivory, pearl, coral (I don't care if the creatures still don't drop them. I can "buy"
it
from my smelter, once I figure out the values for them)

Got

"plant cheeses" have been explained on the wiki. Don't remember quite where, but I've seen it in the past week or so.

I'd like to be able to make dyes from animal products. For instance, there are snails that produce a lovely purple color when crushed. No, I'm not with PETA, how did you guess?

: I can probably do this. Busy with other stuff. When I get around to it, I'll play around with this idea again.

:: still haven't gotten to this... been busy with life.
I'd like to be able to dye worked cloth. The dress was made with undyed cloth? Should be easy to fix. I'd also like to be able to re-dye dyed cloth. In real life it would simply add color but I'd be ok with a "paint over" kind of effect.

: I should be able to do this in a new workshop reaction. Base it off of the glazing improvements. I'll have to figure out all the tags and stuff. Not a high priority.

Maybe mix dyes to make new colors?

: Haven't thought about it a lot, but should be easy enough. Shouldn't even need to make new plants.
I think bones (raw hides, skulls, shells) should be binable. I mean, really. I have 10 fish bones a cat's skull and a turtle shell that take up the same floorspace as 12 beds?!? Put them in a bin. On raw hides: it rots. Ok, two choices. One: don't let me bin this. I'll still be happy if I can bin the friggin' bones, shells, skulls. Or, two: The rot spreads to everything it touches, and, since it's "in" something, it produces miasma. Even if the bin is outside. I don't think that "rat remains" and "dog chunks" and such should be binable. I mean, ew. Also, those don't go into the workshop stockpiles for processing. At least, not in /my/ fortresses. ... again, ew.

:Should be fixable in the raws... something about a tag that tells items what can go in a bin and what can't, and putting it in the templates... that's coming next.
Is there a way to make a mixed group of creatures that spawn together? I mean, take your average herd in Africa. You're going to have zebras and elephants and girraffs and several other things besides, often all walking together. Sure, often you find a herd of just elephants, but often you'll find one or two in a mix of other things as well. And flocks of birds who travel with them, too.

And... feralization. I can keep my tame but unclaimed pets mostly in one area by defining it as a meeting zone... but if I don't... and if they wander off (even if they don't)... I think that if they don't see one of their caretakers for, oh, two seasons (maybe less... maybe a tag that says how quickly?)... they should feralize. Easy way is just to make them go back to being the wild version of that creature. If it's in the wrong biome... uh, oops? Might die sooner? Might get eaten by a grue, I mean, uh... Another way is to make a whole other classification (wild, tame, feral)... maybe it adjusts how aggressive it is. Maybe not. Maybe it adjusts how easily it goes back to being tame. Would this tag be passed on to it's young? Or would the young just be "wild" to start with? If you were near another outpost, city or whatever, would you have their feral creatures start wandering into your area on occasion? Just what you need, the neighbor's feral dragon has decided your keep is it's new home!

:I haven't actually played a game that lasted more than a year and a half on the new version. I mod, play test, re mod. This might actually be in the game now. If it is, when I get around to noticing it, I'll noise reduce. =) If not, well, then, still a valid request, right?

::I have added in a creature ... thing... like "giant" in "giant panda" takes the panda and changes a few things... this is "feral", tag in the domestic critters allows for this alternate template to be applied to them. Makes them more aggressive, and not domesticatable. Also added "rabid". Fun fun! Especially when added to vermin!
I would really really like to see a little option pop up. When everything pauses and recenters because the miners struck something new on a level, and it says ... whatever it says... I'd like there to be a (d)ig, (s)trip, (f)orbid option.

:That way I don't have my newbie miner failing the attempt to mine out the diamonds. I can just leave them there for later. And if I have 4 levels of mining going on, I can't watch every level all the time to see if a new deposit of something already mentioned shows up, or whatever... I can just say "no, not that" as it's discovered, and all the miners know to leave it, and all other instances of it, alone.
