Separate decorate/stud/sew image on finished goods.
« on: October 25, 2014, 06:39:37 pm »
Why should wheelbarrows and minecarts have the same option as rings and amulets? There should be an option to decorate crafts, clothes, and whatever wheelbarrows and such should be. I really don't want to move all the wheelbarrows and clothes away when I want to put a star sapphire on a ☼platinum crown☼ instead of a -pine barrel-.

If any of them are made of fire, throw stuff, run, and think non-flammable thoughts.

DFHack has a plug-in that allows you to define input items. A feature like that would solve a bunch of problems. Especially as part of the job manager.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

I'd be okay with this suggestion as e.g. job manager choices, but not for the jeweller's workshop menu - it'd clutter up the interface needlessly; encrustration control is better done via stockpile links.

That wheelbarrows and minecarts count as finished goods may be a bug - they're also targetted when encrusting furniture (and in fact they're stored in furniture, not finished goods stockpiles).

You do that by ordering encrustation of finished goods :P _barrels_ are pure furniture. Anyway, the pure wealth effect is the same - a decoration is an added item valued at 10☼ * multipliers for decoration material and quality. The material and quality of the item decorated are completely irrelevant (with the possible exception of worn-out clothes): an exceptional star sapphire decoration (mat. mul. 60? i think) is worth 3000☼, both on a ☼platinum crown☼ (adding up to 4800+3000 = 7800☼) and on a -pine barrel (adding up to 20+3000 = 3020☼).

I know, but I want expensive single items, so the caravans can go home humiliated, because I bought them out for ten gems.  :)
