Hey, I'm just saying nobody's going to play a misspelled WW2 mod. I mean imagine it!

Sragent! Get yr Mean to teh Mordor! Blauw up teh Garmen Pantser tunk!

Actually, I would play that. If only to blauw up a tunk.

It would be like Battlefield: Lolcats.

...what was this topic about?

[Duke 2.0]

 Borgly Borgles traversing the labyrinth of the Star Jelly Dispenser to get the sweet succulent boiling Star Jelly while watching dwarves boiling into gold vapor.

[smjjames]

Maybe the tentacle demons are the ones extruding star jelly.

Tou know the unknown substance in HFS?, that's star jelly. MUAHAHA.... HA!

How about a workshop designed to make thermonuclear cats, which can be set to a lever in case of goblin/orc attacks.  I know it won't be possible now, but maybe sometime in the future....

[LegoLord]

Until we can make proper creatures instead of vermin, that won't work either way, sadly.  Body parts are essential to the thermonuclear catsplosion.

[Igfig]

Incidentally, what happens if you make a vermin with a ridiculous homeotherm value?  Do they just die and that's it?

Also, Shadetree, I love the library idea.  I wonder, though: is it possible to make an item that takes an unusual skill?

I mean, I assume the way your library works is that it has reactions that take in one book and output a book of the same sort every time, gaining skill as if the user had created an item using that skill.  Thing is, I think using a book of any sort will just end up giving the skills required to make a book.

It might be possible to have separate books on stone, wood, and bonecrafting, at least.  You'd just have to make the stonecrafting book have stone covers.

Or ooh, maybe you need to take an item of some sort with you when you read.  A piece of stone furniture for a masonry book, for instance.  Then the new piece of furniture produced would provide the skill.  Although the quality of the item would change, which is kinda weird.

[Doomshifter]

I'd use them to make blocks out of any substance I can think of.

Compressed booze blocks, anyone?

[Sheb]

Well, you could make a "Read a Masonry textbook" job that use the Masonry skill. I don't think that skill and materials are hard-linked.

And you could make it so that it requires a Masonry textbook and produce a Masonry textbook 95 times out of 100. This way you'll need to replace them only once in a while.

BTW, is it possible tor equire 2 skills for a job? I mean, writing a Masonry textbook should require both a writing skills and the masonry skills.

I think my first workshop will be one that refines salt water. It's always bothered me that dwarves can master magma but they can't figure out how to work a condenser.

After that, I'll probably mod in a kitchen that requires fuel (or magma) but produces higher quality food. I'll be nerfing the base value of food though, since it's poorly balanced right now.

Then I'll try to find a way to smelt cats!

Don't get your hopes too high up, guys. Moods, fluids, power, and animations are the main thing that WILL NOT be moded-workshop-capable. Also, as far as I've seen, making things like the current craftsdwarf workshop will also be impossible.

Crushed! Crushed! All our hopes and dreams, crushed in a single post!

[Slogo]

I think think there will be plenty of use for the custom workshop so I remain undeterred and quite excited!

It seems with hopes renewed we march on to this great battle of the Modder! For all Modderkind!

[Bricks]

Yeah, not really sure where all of these crazy fluid/power ideas are coming from.  Workshops, people.  The things that make beds.
