Made this because I was tired of dealing with dwarven stupidity with building materials.  Now rather than walling them into the bauxite deposits, you can simply order your mechanics to do their thing with a stone that's actually fit for the purpose.

This shop only produces floodgates and mechanisms, and only out of bauxite.  Both use the mechanics skill (I was lazy, didn't want the masons and mechanics to be fighting over shops, didn't feel like making two buildings, and it kinda makes sense anyway).

All non-job-related attributes are copied straight from the soap maker custom shop, so it won't look like a mechs shop either.  Shortcut is capital B from the workshops menu.

I'll probably add a mason's version later for floodgates, grates, blocks, hatches, etc, but I won't have that much free time for a week or so.

Actually you can link these reactions to standard mechanics workshops I think.

Kitchen, Smelter, and Kiln seem to be the only vanilla workshops that can have reactions added to them.

Good to know. Too bad though. mechanic's workshop has just one vanilla task.

[Zared]

Two, it also has traction benches.

[Arkenstone]

What if you built a custom version of the mason shop, and then fill it with spam reactions to make blocks out of each individual type of stone?

[Makbeth]

Easy enough I suppose; just a lot of copy/pasting with minor edits or some Excel trickery.  That's what I'd really like to do actually.  Does anyone know if it's possible to use a material list with item type submenus like the forges use?  Or is that a different class of job than reactions?

[Keuran]

Try these. They should be in the mechanic's shop. Don't forget the entity tags.

Possible, but why? To get some project made of similar blocks?

Does anyone know if it's possible to use a material list with item type submenus like the forges use?

Impossible. It's a hardcoded menus. Too bad you cannot do the same in other workshops.

Such a shame. Good reason to cheat for metal bars, though: custom-colored megaprojects. When microcline gets old, make a ten-story rose gold temple with bismuth bronze furniture!

[BUILDING:MECHANIC:CUSTOM_M]

There's no MECHANIC building.

I took it off the end of a string dump string, HOTKEY_BUILDING_WORKSHOP_MECHANIC.
There isn't a KITCHEN building in the dump either, so I assumed it would work like tallow.

EDIT: ok, sorry. I saw used a text search and didn't find any capitalised KITCHEN, so I assumed they just weren't listed. Just replace mechanic with smelter or a custom workshop then.

[Djohaal]

I recall seeing that we can order mechanisms on the forge in this version. So yeah. Iron mechanisms.

Edit: Not only I recall, but i just checked. Forges now have the "construct mechanisms" command under trap components (checked for iron). The reaction was completed too, I didn't get my smith crying for rock bars.

http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/String_dump#Section_24

That is the section of the string dump where people are getting the information that KITCHEN, KILN, and SMELTER are the only hardcoded workshops that can have reactions added.

By the way, bauxite isn't the only magma-safe rock anymore.  I've been fine in my fort with orthoclase doors and mechanisms; check the wiki for the whole list.

One could just add [REACTION_CLASS:MAGMA_SAFE] to those stones, or maybe use [MAGMA_BUILD_SAFE] in the reaction...

Be careful with the wiki list, some materials on it have lower-than-magma temperatures (specifically, Nickel Silver was on the list a day or two ago, but has been removed because after checking the raws, it's not magma safe).  If you're worried, check the [MELTING_POINT] tag, it should be over 12,000 for it to be magma safe.
