Alternate materials for practice bolts?
« on: November 13, 2007, 07:17:00 pm »

How would I go about modding in stone crossbow bolts for archery practice?
Or make copper bolts usable for practice?

As far as i know, practice bolt materials are hard coded; the fact that there are no material tags along the lines of "practice material" in the metal or wood .raw files kind of confirms it.

Only thing I could think of if it isn't entirely hardcoded, is that practice bolt selection is limited by base cost of the material the bolt is made from.

The other case is that it may be that any metal has been hardcoded for no use as practice but other matrials may work.
