Is it possible to prevent a kind of wood from being used in wagons and NPC trading goods? I've put this in my RAWs:
[MATGLOSS_WOOD:ELF]
   [NAME:petrified elves][ADJ:elven]
   [TILE:226]
   [PREFSTRING:terrified expression]

And it's just awkward when the elves show up with petrified elf flutes to trade.

Also, the humans showed up with a wagon made of them.

(Petrified elves originally from assorted silliness mod.)

[Blargityblarg]

Because I created this:

[MATGLOSS_WOOD:ELF]
   [NAME:petrified elves][ADJ:elven]
   [TILE:226]
   [PREFSTRING:terrified expression]

No you didn't.

I did, for my Assorted Silliness mod, the thread o which you posted in, and thuss cannot claim ignorance of. My version reads like so: [MATGLOSS_WOOD:ELF]
   [NAME:petrified elf][ADJ:elfbone]
   [TILE:'E']
   [PREFSTRING:delicious irony]
   [PREFSTRING:expressions of terror]
   [DRY]
   [BIOME:ANY_TEMPERATE_BROADLEAF]
   [BIOME:ANY_TROPICAL_FOREST]
   [BIOME:FOREST_TEMPERATE_CONIFER]

Oh, and by the way, I justify it as the elves respecting their arboreal brethren.

Fixed.
To be honest, though, I'm kind of wondering where they got it from. The variety I'm using doesn't have biomes.

[Firnagzen]

You know, I really fail to see any sort of problem.

[Deon]

If trees have no biomes, they don't grow anywhere.

[Deimos56]

If trees have no biomes, they don't grow anywhere.

Which, one would assume, would prevent elves from making musical instruments out of it. Or humans making wagons...
And I don't want to know what the goblins are going to do.

[Meanmelter]

accualy,thats a good idea guys,perhaps you could make a very very rare tree in the desert that gives you a metal

here would be a example 

Code: [Select]

[MATGLOSS_WOOD:SOMEKINDOFRANDOMRARETREE]
[NAME:ERRRANDOMRARETREELOL][ADJ:ERRRANDOMRARETREESLOL]
[TILE:198]
[PREFSTRING:has metallic roots]
[DRY]
[BIOME:ANY_DESERT]
then in your REACTION_STANDARD you add somthing like this.

Code: [Select]

[REACTION:RANDOMTREEMETAL]
[NAME:make RANDOMTREEMETAL bars]
[SMELTER]
[REAGENT:100:HOW much wood to make the metal:WOOD:NO_SUBTYPE:WOOD:RANDOMTREELOL]
[PRODUCT:100:how much metal you get:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:any metal]

[Deimos56]

Um...
What?

[Meanmelter]

Um...
What?

a rare tree,in the desert,that gives you metal when smelted,how are you confused

[gtmattz]

Um...

It think its more of a 'wtf' at the hijack 

[Meanmelter]

...uhh...what the hell does that mean?

[Blargityblarg]

A 'hijack' is like a derail, only to a relevant topic for the forum, rather than cats or loli or the price of fish in China.*

That said, I think it's more that you were a little abrupt with the idea- you just kinda dumped it. If you think it has real potential (which it may well), make it its own thread with development of the idea, rather than stealing Deimos' thread, accidentally or otherwise.

*i think

[Deimos56]

...I was just looking for a way to keep the elves from selling me their brethren.

Edit: Ironwood trees?

[ousire]

...uhh...what the hell does that mean?

it means you've gone off topic now with your own idea. were talking about how to stop elves making stuff from elf-wood, and you jump in outta nowhere with an idea of your own that isnt related at all. thus, youve hijacked the thread. now go make a different topic if you wanna share the idea for a metal-tree-thing
