I have been thinking about doing something with skulls. Or somethings. Therefore, I have a few questions about things I'm not terribly familiar with as far as modding goes.

1. How would I make the skull out of a different material than bone? For the sake of the argument, let's say I want to be able to make a creature's skull out of either fat or iron.
2. How do those butcher item thingies work? Can I choose any item? If I made a creature's bone be spears, would it be one spear per bone that would normally exist?
3. Actually, can the butcher item of a material be changed on a creature be changed on a creature-by-creature basis?

1. Alter "VERTEBRATE_TISSUE_LAYERS" so SKULL uses a different tissue that is made from your new materials

2. on the material you can use [BUTCHER_SPECIAL:<ITEM_TYPE>:<SUB_ITEM>] or in the creature you can use [EXTRA_BUTCHER_OBJECT:BY_TOKEN:SKULL] followed by a [EBO_ITEM:<ITEM_TYPE>:<MATERIAL>] -- I think subtypes are used too, I just looked at the cave Croc for a ref

3. and I believe so by using [SELECT_MATERIAL:material_id] and using the [BUTCHER_SPECIAL] tag

an alternative way could be the Custom creature one
just create a custom creature called "polished" and edit it's skull tissues to be "iron" the you can create a custom reaction that turn skulls into "polished" "iron" skulls

but then you don't know what the skull was, I have a special Skull material (2 acually) so I can make helms that say "Horse Skull Helm" with Iron stats. Your way works too depedning on how much flavour you want.
