Give your material ITEMS_WEAPON, ITEMS_WEAPON_RANGED, and ITEMS_ARMOR. You can see how to give it other uses here.

[Unknown72]

On the other end of that spectrum. What if I wanted to have it so that a material can't be made into the normal weapons, armor, trinkets, etc, but did want it to be made for specific ones? So for example I don't want a Meridian metal to be made into the normal armor and weapons that dwarves can make by default, but it can be made into custom weapons and armor at a different, specific workshop?

Would I just not have those tags onto the materials but instead in the reaction have the reagents be the metal and the product be the weapon/armor with get_material_from_reagent?

awesome thanks. Just what I was looking for

Is there anyway to make an ammo projectile single use like a bomb?

I actually found the following thread:

Should this work for the ammo material to make it a bomb that "explodes" on impact? (From the link)

Standard skill gain/rust rates are set to

Code: [Select]

[SKILL_RATES:100:8:16:16]according to the wiki.

If I were to make a caste that could learn twice as fast, would adding

Code: [Select]

[SKILL_RATES:200:8:16:16]work? Or do I have to use

Code: [Select]

[SKILL_RATES:50:8:16:16]?

[Eric Blank]

@yomtoxic: The 200 would be correct.

This might work but it'd be pretty flaky. Sometimes tropical environments exceed that heat threshold and so it might melt if it's taken outside. Or if it's produced in a magma forge/the dwarf carries it through a tile heated by nearby magma. So it isn't exactly safe, I would think.

That's why I never tried it, at least.

[DerMeister]

What if make eggshell liquid and egg white solid? I want make GCT eggs.

[YomToxic]

@yomtoxic: The 200 would be correct.

Thanks! Is there a limit to this percentage?

[Eric Blank]

There's probably some potential bugs like a value overflow situation but the wiki doesn't mention any limits, no.


@dermeister: I suspect if you made the egg shell liquid the whole egg would melt, since items only consider the outer or "dominant" material. I made a gooey eggshell material I think from fat or something, which I use for frog/fish eggs

[YomToxic]

There's probably some potential bugs like a value overflow situation but the wiki doesn't mention any limits, no.

I'll just keep 200 as a safe range for the Old Ones caste, then. Thanks!

Its a percentage so 200 is only x2

Would I just not have those tags onto the materials but instead in the reaction have the reagents be the metal and the product be the weapon/armor with get_material_from_reagent?

Yes.

I tried this with special custom type of gauntlets, but custom reaction makes just one and without the left or right alignment so it can't be equipped. Any ideas how could I make pair of functioning items with custom reaction? Some tokens or anything?

[Eric Blank]

Dfhack. Don't think there's any other way. It'll have to wait for toady to fix the issue.

Fine then, I saw some kind of item script with special arguments for paired items... When we're at it, do you know some script to trigger when a unit of certain race is killed? I want to punish players for killing magical livestock .
