Let civs make bone weapons and armor
« on: July 30, 2019, 09:26:54 pm »

We can make bone weapons and armor in forts. I'd like to be able to see NPC civs do it. Chitin, shell, and scale could also work.

Maybe once they form actual tribes.

I feel like moving the (armor/weapon) reactions to the raws should fix this, as entities using assigned raw-reactions tend to work well. Currently material ellegibility is decided by weird tokens like [BARRED] on the items themselves, instead of it being decided by normal reaction raws. I would guess there is some hard-coded check that prevents non-metal armor/weapons from being used, or maybe the civs don't recognize they can use the bones. They should though, considering USE_ANIMAL_PRODUCTS is a thing.

If that counts as a trophy, they consider it unthinkable.
