The wheelbarrow, minecart and cauldron are defined in item_tool.txt, and the [VALUE:x] token in their respective definitions defines their value multiplier. Just change that to the desired value

For the trap components, they're in item_trapcomp.txt. They don't have a value defined, I imagine they derive their value from the material they're made from, [MATERIAL_SIZE:x] and [SIZE:x], which are both defined in the raws. You can reduce those, or try to add a value string. It might not do anything, and reducing the size tokens might affect how they behave in their job as trap components

Large serrated disc/ Spiked ball 126x - i want it 12

DF2014:Item value - Dwarf Fortress Wiki - "The base value of a trap component is ((SIZE / 50) + 1) * HITS; if it has any EDGE attacks, its value is doubled."

You need to reduce those two from size 1000 to (12/2/3 -1)*50=50 - that's about the size of an amulet or five seeds. Note that as a result, you'll likely find that their damage would be lessened for non-adamantine metals, especially for silver spiked balls that rely on being converted to blunt, and thus weight.

How do you get a tool to actually fire some type of ammo?
I have a tool and it's ammo currently set up like this:

Check to see how many hands the creature is using to hold the gun. If it's a 2-handed size, it can't fire.

It has the same values as vanilla crossbows so that's not the issue - humans wield it in one hand but still can't fire.

It is not a weapon. Only weapons can fire.

Hmm, should that be updated on the wiki then? In tool tokens it says that it's a valid token for tools as well.

Well, clearly your tests show that tools can't fire ammo.

So, how do I make a material never actually show up in the world (for use as a gas in an atomic breath interaction for my Godzilla mod)

[Eric Blank]

Simply don't use it anywhere else. Materials don't show up except where they're called upon

Is there a DFHack script to disable specified vanilla reactions from workshops? Thanks.

EDIT:

Realized that I'm not actually working with 0.43.x and I should ask about this in the other thread.

So, quick question. Since we can do the various component parts for instruments, can we do the same for other objects as well? Could one make arrows and arrowheads independent of each other, for instance? Would that work as intended?

You could make the pieces of an arrow, such as the head and such, then have them assembled into a regular arrow.
