Tin Glaze 34.09
« on: May 20, 2012, 02:27:51 pm »

I realize this probably ought to go into the Modding section, but it may be of interest here.  Tin glazing uses cassiterite, the ore of tin, directly.  With the new drops this is A Bad Thing.  I considered modding the kiln reaction for glazing, but that doesn't actually give a reaction product.  It just improves an existing reagent.  It might work to put in 4 of those, but I decided to try instead to add the glaze line from cassiterite into tin metal.

When this line was added to the definition of tin inside inorganic_metal.txt for an existing fortress, it gave no errors and I am now glazing with tin bars.

Thanks.  If I ever actually use tin glaze, (Which I probably won't) I now have a better output for my input.
