So I'm trying to make the elves fully playable in fortress mode for myself and i got a lot of the kinks ironwooded out but one thing still eludes me, how can i make them produce left hand and right hand gauntlets.

*note gauntlets are being made they are just non handed.

Am I to presume that you have actually defined an OBJECT:ITEM that is ITEM_GLOVES_GAUNTLETS_RIGHT ??  The default item doesn't try to define handed ness at the item definition level, rather it is a property of the GLOVE catagory.

[csparrow]

Yes, but that had no affect

Last time I checked, gloves are hard coded to make a left&right pair.
You could try to write to reactions and attach DFHack scripts that trigger after item creation and deletes the opposite handed glove.

Or just write a dummy reaction that has a DFHack script to create only the handedness you want.

Don't know of any way to do it in RAW alone.

IIRC custom reactions that make gauntlets and boots don't correctly apply handedness to them without the use of the DFHack bug fix. The reason other gloves/shoes work is because they are created through generated reactions when they are added to an entities raw
