Making an anvil out of air
« on: June 05, 2009, 07:53:09 pm »
Okay, I need help. The cheat-y sort of help. You see, I embarked with one all around metaldwarf. Metalsmithing, skilled armoring, weaponsmithing, metal crafting.

But I don't have an anvil. And he went into a secretive strange mood. I saved and waited for the caravan, hoping it would come before he went nuts. It didn't and now he's melancholy. I will not lose 'Erith Bomrekthibam.

Please tell me how to cheat myself an anvil. As soon as I can trade for one I will toss it in magma, but I'm willing to cheat to save his life. So please tell me any way to get an anvil in there.

Many thanks.

I don't think there is anyway of coming out of melancholy. So he's dead.  :-\

I saved as soon as I got the secretive mood message. I already ctrl alt del quit it so I have the save of him right after getting the mood.

So it seems I accidentally put my canteen in my wheelbarrow and didn't notice... and then I got really thirsty... so right before going to sleep I go to take a swig from my canteen and... end up snorting a line of low-grade meth.

replace all but the reaction line of a reaction that you don't use with:

[NAME:free anvil]
[SMELTER]
[PRODUCT:100:1:ANVIL:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:IRON]

Alternate win:

download dwarf companion and use it to remove his mood.

Just remember to set it back to normal once yer done with it :)

I actually have a couple dummy reactions I stuck at the bottom of my custom reactions raw.

Code: [Select]
[REACTION:NOTHING_TO_SEE_HERE]
[NAME:make nothing from nothing]
[SMELTER]
That way I can do weird stuff like satisfy a glass mood on a sandless map, or get a noble something he wants that doesn't exist within 100 miles of the site, or test some new reaction possibility without having to overwrite some vanilla entry that I might screw up rebuilding.

P.S. Might screw up seed compatibility though.
