Leather into shells: Help please!
« on: December 13, 2008, 10:03:17 pm »

Okay, so I have this problem with a domestic creature that's supposed to drop a shell when butchered.  It won't, is the problem.  So, to work around this, I thought I'd use a reaction.  What sort of reaction could do that?  I'm not really all that sure about how reactions with bones and plants work.

And this is how tinned food was invented.
Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

SHELL:NO_SUBTYPE:SHELL:TURTLE

If that doesn't work, I don't think anything will. Wait a few months for the next version, that'll have more reaction compatability.

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

It didn't work.  I just got this weird "shell" item represented by a solid black tile.

Are we sure this can't be done yet?  Anyone have any other ideas?

Come on, this has been view 90+ times!  Someone has to have something.

I think the problem is related to how only vermin can be milked; I can order crafts made from the offending creature's shell, but I cannot produce the shell myself.  The creature in question is the Ussal Crab from my LEGO mod (first url in my sig).

Also, sorry for the triple post, but I would really like a solution that does not involve waiting for the next version.
