So I am modding in a new metal (better than candy, for the sole purpose of not having unmatched fun trying to obtain it), but whenever i try to test it in the Arena, the metal immediately boils off and my dwarf is left with no weapon. I do not know what I did wrong, and am actively trying to fix it.

I do believe that it is important to note that I am very new to modding the game, so any help is appreciated, and also that may be the reason why this post is annoying if it is.

Also, most of this I copied off of the "Cacame Awemedinade" page on the Wiki.

Here is the RAW. I'm gonna put it in spoiler so it isn't crowding up your page before you look at it. Note that the SPEC_HEAT used to be 7500 but after it began boiling off I cranked it up to see if it would fix it.

Post your metal RAWs for a start, it is hard to say what the problem is otherwise.

Good point there.
Will be posted in a few minutes.

Temperature is a 16 bit number apparently, going by the overflow error you are having.  Try having a boiling point below 65536 (2^16) urists.

Thank you, that worked.

Technically, it must be 60000 or less, because 60001 is the magic number that means "NONE".
