Just wondering, is it possible to mod the Reaction_Smelter file to be able to spit out leather of a specific creature, and sand/clay that I can use to make glass/earthenware/stoneware items?

[Doren]

yes

[Foamybeard]

Yes to both?

Could I have help with the code, please?

Please do not take this as a brush off reply, It is more I do not know for certain but I think they are detailed in this modders resource that is on my list.    I do know this little tidbit from modding things myself though:   #1 make sure you add your reactions to your entity.txt file and #2 Make sure you generate a new world after you add them in..

Besides the link Profit gave you,
http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Reactions#Anatomy_of_a_reaction
is also an excellent resource.

If you look at those resources and then ask more specific questions, or post your attempt at a modded reaction, people will be happy to help.  Welcome to modding!

I don't guarantee this works because I just threw it together quickly, but what you can do is compare it to the "Anatomy of a Reaction" until you understand the structure, and run with it from there

Code: [Select]

[REACTION:MAKE_COW_LEATHER]
[NAME:Turn a rock into cow leather]
[BUILDING:SMELTER:NONE]
        [REAGENT:A:1:BOULDER:NONE:NONE:NONE][WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY]
[PRODUCT:100:1:SKIN_TANNED:NO_SUBTYPE:CREATURE_MAT:COW:LEATHER]
[SKILL:LEATHERWORK]

add to entity
   [PERMITTED_REACTION:MAKE_COW_LEATHER]

p.s.  Of all the things you asked, it's all possible and not too hard, but Sand will be the trickiest, because of two things (1) putting products in containers is maybe not intuitive and (2) you have to learn about Dwarven units of measure to work with Powders (or Fluids or Bars)

[REACTION:MAKE_SAND]
[NAME:turn rock to sand]
   [BUILDING:SMELTER:NONE]
        [REAGENT:A:1:BOULDER:NONE:NONE:NONE][WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY]
        [REAGENT:B:1:BOX:NONE:NONE:NONE][BAG][EMPTY][PRESERVE_REAGENT]
        [PRODUCT:100:1:POWDER_MISC:NONE:INORGANIC:SAND_TAN][PRODUCT_TO_CONTAINER:B][PRODUCT_DIMENSION:150]
   [SKILL:STONECRAFT]


One thing I'm not sure about here is whether or not you want that Dimension=150, or a different value or not at all.  Maybe someone else will jump in and say.  Otherwise you'll just have to experiment.  Good luck!
