So, I've been looking around the forums and the wiki a bit, but I'm still a wee bit lost.

I was looking to mod in a new material type (that might have been done already, and I've just never spotted it.)

Basically it would be processed bone that you could use just like stone. Probably done in the smelter.

Any advice for how to go about doing this?

[Lofn]

I'm almost certain the only way to do this is to add a new [DEEP] stone_mineral type called 'bone', and produce it by processing bone at the smelter.

[Mr.Hobosworth]

It depends on what you want. if you want an actual stone that you take to the smelter and process there, just make a new stone, but dont add [DEEP] as it would cause HFS to be surrounded in it rather than Adamantine

or if you want to take actual bones and be left with a stone called "processed bone" or something, make the new stone in matgloss_stone_mineral, but dont give it any environments.

then add in a smelter reaction something along the lines of:

[SMELTER]
[REAGENT:3:BONES:NO_SUBTYPE:BONE:NO_SUBTYPE]
[PRODUCT:100:1:STONE:NO_SUBTYPE:STONE:BONESTONE]
[FUEL]

*someone check me on the bone reagent, havent used bones in a reaction before*

[Shade-o]

I've just been experimenting with skulls and bones in reactions, and so far it looks like they work as long as you specify a creature.

Titanium, the strongest natural material available. Due to our technology, vacuum chambers are just outside reach, meaning that the Kroll process cannot be obtained. The Hunter process can be roughly emulated with large amounts of high-quality salt crystals for Chlorine and charcoal for Coke (I hate Coal). At this point sodium would be used to form pure Titanium, but the purest source is Cryolite, which is horribly rare. Instead, the skeletons of elves is used.

For best results, the elves should be placed in a clear glass room underground, away from the sun, watching farmers harvesting various mushrooms while a covered magma vent gently cooks them. Once properly marinated, seal the room and fill with water. Wait until the cave-worms have left only the bones, then hurl the remains into the Titanium smelter while explaining to their liaison the benefits of progress.
