Bars DO have dimensions, but that leads to some iffy stuff in the coding. If you make an IRON bar with a Dimension of 1 (150 being the normal), a smith can use it to make things-- Unless for some reason the forge was messed up for me--, anything.

A bar can have any dimension. Meaning you can have a bar of dim 5, bar of dim 10, and so on. I still need to do more testing to make certain that my earlier experience with them wasn't a fluke.

You can, however, have reactions that require a 'minimum' dimension size, which causes bars of smaller sizes to be ignored. But this is only in custom reactions.

If a custom reaction requires a specific Metal/Stone, such as...

[REAGENT:A:1:STONE:NONE:INORGANIC:MICA], then it will appear in MICA's entry in the manager.

Where as...

[REAGENT:A:1:STONE:NONE:INORGANIC:NONE] will not appear in the manager.

Entries with a [REACTION_CLASS:X] show up with a listing for the reaction that uses that tag.

CHANCE - The 'Chance' that an object will appear when the product is completed. Each building keeps an internal count for

There's no chance-keeping in DF.

Every time chance calculates again.
Reaction with a 50% chance can give product three times in a row, and can give nothing for three times.
But in the long perspective (100 and more times) result product quantity will be ok about that 50%.

I've tried for several hours but still completely failed at making a reaction that would consume a plant (longwheat).
Either the reagent line fails and the reaction occurs without requiring any reagent, or the reaction does not pickup any longwheat.

Try using this:
[REAGENT:A:1:PLANT:NONE:PLANT_MAT:GRASS_WHEAT_CAVE:STRUCTURAL]

Thanks, it worked! But the reactions ignore plants inside containers.

[Upright Path]

Any item that in the normal course of use must be placed in a bucket, barrel, bag or other, is typically ignored. See problems with using sand and the like.

Items inside of bins seem to be available though.

Thanks, it worked! But the reactions ignore plants inside containers.

1. Make a small stockpile near the smelter
2. assign it to store only needed plant
3. Set barrels=0
4. Set it "t"ake those plants from your food stockpile where those plants are in barrels.

Anyone know the material tag for mechanisms?
[BUILD_ITEM:1:MECHANISMS:NONE:NONE:NONE]
doesn't work, nor does MECHANISM... starting to suspect they are a subtype of another reagent.

They are TRAPPARTS.

Thanks a much.

I'm trying to get the option of taking seed out of plant.
But I think I have a problem

[REACTION:EXTRACT_SEED]
   [NAME:extract seed]
   [BUILDING:KITCHEN:NONE]
   [REAGENT:A:1:PLANT:NONE:PLANT_MAT:STRUCTURAL][UNROTTEN]
   [PRODUCT:100:3:PLANT:SEED:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:SEED]
   [SKILL:COOK]

I get no error log (I did get some before while I was having fun trying).
Now this seems to make sense for me, but seems not for the game...

NB : Kitchen and Cook are only for test to have as many things known to work well

[Upright Path]

What are the results when you try that?

Also, I think it should be...

[PRODUCT:100:3:SEED:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:SEED]

[Jay]

Have we figured out product bones, shells, and skulls?
Those are the big three things I need.
Every way of going at it I can think of hasn't worked, so I'm guessing the tissues system makes it more difficult.

[Upright Path]

[PRODUCT:100:1CORPSEPIECE:BONE:CREATURE_MAT:<CREAURE>:BONE]

I think should work, but I'm not sure.

[Jay]

[PRODUCT:100:1CORPSEPIECE:BONE:CREATURE_MAT:<CREAURE>:BONE]

Well, you're missing a colon, for one thing...
I'll give it a shot and see what happens, will post results here.

EDIT: No dice.
The reactions appear but nothing is produced.
