It's the ITEM subtype. I've only seen it used so far with GLAZE_MAT and FIRED_MAT. Still poking through the raws, though.

That's what I thought, but I was just wondering if anyone found any other arguments that work with it.

It looks like those GLAZE_MAT arguments are created in the raws as a subtype for the thing that makes the glaze (see: cassiterite for an example). I am still not quite sure why they're there at the end of the reaction, but earlier on they're used as an easy identifier for what to use in a glazing reaction. I'm guessing you could just create your own, and then use them in a similar manner? I think? This one confuses me, since it only seems to show up with decoration reactions, and there aren't many of them to extrapolate patterns from to figure this out.

These are just material names, you can make any if you want.

To be specific, it can be either:
  • a material attached to the creature or plant the reagent came from
  • a MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT attached to the reagent's material
So if item1 came from a sweet pod, then:
  • GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:item1:DRINK would give you dwarven rum
  • GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:item1:MILL would give you dwarven sugar
  • GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:item1:EXTRACT would give you dwarven syrup
  • GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:item1:SEED would give you the sweet pod seed material
You could probably get OIL, SOAP, LEAF, SEED, or STRUCTURAL materials from any quarry bush product, but only items made of the rock nut SEED material would have PRESS_LIQUID_MAT as a reaction product.


Tangental thought: Could you use HAS_MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT to check whether a plant/creature has a SHELL/HOOF/DRINK/whatever material defined? Science doesn't know!
