1) What's the list of metals this includes? I know copper is one, and I'm pretty sure I've seen iron but I wouldn't swear to it.

2) Is the list of minor metals hardcode or can it be changed? Didn't see any particularly obvious tokens in matgloss_metal.

I'm pretty sure it just picks the second-worst metals available for weapons and armor.  Since copper is the only second-worst metal, kobolds use copper.


If you were to create another metal that was just above 50% modifier for weapons and armor, they'll most likely pick that.  

[METAL_PREF] picks the best metal that isn't [DEEP], and no specification uses the second-best, which is currently iron.
