I seem to be having a strange issue with new stones I have added not being displayed in the game at all and was looking for some help...

I have a file called inorganic_stone_layer_genned.txt in the raw folder of dwarf fortress.

inorganic_stone_layer_genned

[STATE_NAME:ALL_SOLID:dildoite]

[SOLID_DENSITY:2630]

But after creating a new world I cannot get any of the stones to show up on embark and they dont appear to exist in-game either, do I need to define the stones somewhere else too? Is the raw of the stone actually valid?

Also yes...the stone was generated, I just picked a stone out from the raw and found that in it.

Maybe you just didn't foind it? Try embarking a few more times. You won't find all the stones in each embark. Also use prospector to check if this stone is there.

[IGNEOUS_EXTRUSIVE] is pretty rare, like Obsidian and Basalt. Look around active volcanoes!
For testing, make it [ENVIRONMENT:SEDIMENTARY:CLUSTER:100] or [SEDIMENTARY].

I fixed the issue, it was a rather silly issue...basically was how dwarf fortress read the new line characters compared to how my program was writing them.

Some stones generated from the program, I had it generate 12800 stone types for testing ^^

The program is for a project I am working on, as I wanted a completely generated world from creatures all the way down to soils. I currently have the creature generation more or less done, it just needs some final tweaking to make the creatures less like abominations ^^. Along with metals, minerals, stones, plants, gems, smelter reactions, entitys etc, just needs some final tweaks and testing before I release to the public.
