So my only miner died, I'm expecting a siege before the caravan comes because I have the Orc mod and the the goblin family mod. I'm also using the Age of Shadows mod, so I'm playing as gnomes right now.
Anyways, I'm sick of restarting a fort because of stupid mishaps like my only miner diving into a puddle and then slowly drowning because of a kobold thief.
So I tried to edit gnomish picks so I could make one out of wood.
Here's what I did

[ITEM_WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_GNOMISH_PICK]
[NAME:gnomish pick:gnomish picks]
[DAMAGE:65:PIERCE]
[WEIGHT:45]
[SKILL:MINING]
[RANGED:CROSSBOW:SHOT]
[CRIT_BOOST:2]
[TWO_HANDED:4]
[MINIMUM_SIZE:4]
[MATERIAL_SIZE:3]

Somehow, though, I can't make it in the bowyer shop.
even if I change [SKILL:MINING] to, say, [SKILL:CROSSBOW]
what do I need to do?

You have to set the item to be used in the entity tag... or something... Blah blah blah.

I never really understood that part of item modding.

It is set in the entity tag, if it wasn't my miner wouldn't have drowned while holding one.

[RANGED:CROSSBOW:SHOT]

It won't work if it uses a type of ammo that doesn't exist.  You would need to mod in shots as a type of ammo.  If you don't want that, try this for the pick:

[RANGED:CROSSBOW:BOLT]

Shot does exist, but I'll try it with bolts and see if that works.

Maybe you need to gen a new world?  If the fort you are trying this out in was generated before you added that item in, the gnomish picks won't show up.

[socially_inept_butterfly]

No, in all the other forts this has worked fine.
Just not this one...

I seem to remember that someone else had a problem with this too, something about the [RANGED:X:X] tag and [DIGGER] being incompatible with each other for some reason.

Ah, alright. I'll remove digger, do what I have to do, and then add it again.

If you add something to the file such as something to be made I am very sure you have to gen a new world for this to work, I ran into somehting like this when I was trying to put masks in for dwarves.

You're playing as gnomes? Size 3 gnomes?
Ouch.

You're playing as gnomes? Size 3 gnomes?
Ouch.

Wait, what?
If they're size 3, they can't use the [MINIMUM_SIZE:4] pick.

Oh i see, they're bigger than vanilla gnomes. Vanilla mountain and dark gnomes are size 3.
