NO_EAT Token[edit]
According to this page, the creature token [NO_EAT] "seems to cause worldgen crashes if it is part of an entity with [PERMITTED_JOB:FISHERMAN]". However, the raws for version 50.11 appear to disagree. In creature_standard.txt, goblins have [NO_EAT], and in entity_default.txt, [ENTITY:EVIL] has [CREATURE:GOBLIN] and [PERMITTED_JOB:FISHERMAN]. Maybe the [NO_EAT] Token works here because goblins also have [BONECARN]? --Bigjetman (talk) 18:33, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
