As the title might give away, i've been working on a mod to request help from the homeland for some resources. At the moment this mod only functions from the smelter because of the lack of other building type tokens, however, I was testing out a bunch of "cheat" mode of the mod (which required no resources) to see if it worked, when I noticed that my axes were coming out large every time on their own accord. Now this mod is still in the early days, and I probably won't finish it until the next edition is released (which is hopefull soon).

My questions are:

What is making the axes come out large (and therefore unusable by my poor lonely axedwarves)?
Is there any way to control the level of quality of the products that the dwarven home is sending (So for example, you could request a masterfully made axe at a large cost, or a simple average quality one at a lesser price)?


For those of you who want the code, here is the "cheat" version I have been using for testing:

[REACTION:MOUNTAINHOME_AXE_CHEAT][NAME:Request Axe][SMELTER][PRODUCT:100:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_AXE_BATTLE:METAL:ADAMANTINE]

Before you berate me, yes it does produce a Adamantine battle axe at no cost. This was just for testing, the normal version of the mod actually uses steel or iron and even then the cost is quite large.

I think that anything with an associated size always turns out human-sized in reactions.  You'd have to make your dwarves bigger, as there is no way around this.

Hmmm when you say *large* do you mean that the dwarf can't handle it or it is so heavy that it makes the dwarf slow to a crawl.

Also just to make sure any axedwarves you have will need to have their military options switched to two handed wielding instead of one.

Large, as in what the game calls any armor that is too large for your race to wear.

thing is though he is making an axe not a piece of armor... as far as I know size dictates that not a large or narrow tag.

Axes cannot have sizes, as any weapon. You misunderstood something.

[Vester]

There is a minimum size for weapon usage, though, which is why fort-mode dwarves can't wield human two-handed swords.

[Deon]

Well, yes, but here he uses a default ITEM_WEAPON_AXE_BATTLE, which is usable.
