Put this in your Reactions File

Code: [Select]
[REACTION:BONE_PICK]
[NAME:make bone pick]
[SMELTER]
[REAGENT:1:BONES:NO_SUBTYPE:BONE:ANY]
[PRODUCT:100:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_PICK:BONE:ELK]
Replace ITEM_WEAPON_PICK with any weapon you want a to make out of bone.

New reactions require a regen, right?

@Vester: Yes, normally they do require regen.

@UristMcGunsmith: No, all reactions except those at the smelter are currently hardcoded into the exe.  We can only work with the smelter.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

It works, but I'm not so sure I would do that.  It potentially causes issues; including that you have to completely sacrifice an existing reaction to do so.

It's completely safe as long as you don't change the phrase after REACTION, and there are always reactions that are 100% useless on a given map.  And you can always change the reaction back if it turns out you need it.  It's really nothing to worry about.

Agreed. To make it easy to change reactions back to what they used to be keep all of the text of the original reaction in place but delete the [ and ] at the beginning and end of the line of text (with out the [ and ] DF views all text as comments and doesn't use it). Or if you are want you can keep a back up copy of the reactions files in another directory (not under the DF directory, someplace like your documents folder).
