Onyx and Doors
« on: May 12, 2008, 05:38:00 pm »

My attempt to make an onyx door from rough onyxes freshly mined out of a wall has failed miserably.  Anyone have a step by step guide on how to accomplish this task?  Please assume that I don't know anything.

I don't believe rough gems can be used to build anything like with stones, as the game considers gems to be completly seperate from any other stone. Onyx is a gem according to the game.

Using edited reaction you can. Maybe.
code:
 
[REACTION:ADAMANTINE_WAFERS]
[NAME:make onyx door]
[SMELTER]
[REAGENT:1:ROUGH:NO_SUBTYPE:STONE:ONYX]
[PRODUCT:100:1 :DOOR:NO_SUBTYPE:STONE:ONYX]


Replace the addy reaction with this.

Tell us if it works.

Of course, you'd have to generate a new world which would kind of defeat the purpose...

No, you don't need a new world if you just change an existing reaction.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

You could hope for a strange mood. But be warned, there is more likely going to be an onyx thong made.

Menacing with spikes of pig tail rope.

Encrusted with glass.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

"Having faith" that the bridge will not fall, implies that the bridge itself isn't that trustworthy. It's not that different from "I pray that the bridge will hold my weight."

Thongs != women's underpants.

They're more like the strip that you add to a gun to hold it on your shoulder.
