Hey Forum
what am I doing wrong with this reaction

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

[REACTION:CREATE_COAL]
   [NAME:Create Coal
   [BUILDING:WOOD_PROCESSOR:CUSTOM_P]
   [REAGENT:A:1:WOOD:NO_SUBTYPE:NONE:NONE]
   [PRODUCT:100:5:BAR:COAL:CHARCOAL:A:NONE]
   [SKILL:WOOD_BURNING]

also, is it possible to create a stone from bone using the Reagent material of the bone itself
or do I have to create a new type of stone?

[rutsber]

I have a question. Why mod coal in with the same reaction used for charcoal if charcoal is already in the game? Or does this produce 2 rather than the usual 1?

[NecroRebel]

The NAME line needs the brackets closed - add a ] to the end of it.

The REAGENT line has a minor problem; the item subtype should be NONE, not NO_SUBTYPE. I am uncertain if it matters, but it might.

The PRODUCT line is all wrong. You're trying to produce a bar of the subtype COAL of a material whose type is CHARCOAL and whose material subtype is A. You are, presumably, trying to make a bar out of the type of coal known as charcoal; the proper line for that would be [PRODUCT:100:5:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:COAL:CHARCOAL], and should probably have a [PRODUCT_DIMENSION:150] on there as well. Charcoal doesn't inherit any material subtypes from the wood it is made from.



It... might be possible to make an item of the type BOULDER made from a bone material. Should be, actually. The game might not recognize that the item exists, though, probably won't actually recognize the material the item is made of (it'll show up as " boulder" or even just " "), and might not be usable for building anything regardless.

I have a question. Why mod coal in with the same reaction used for charcoal if charcoal is already in the game? Or does this produce 2 rather than the usual 1?

The reaction Fortron attempted to make would create 5 charcoal from 1 wood. It's a relatively-minor cheat reaction, in other words.

[rutsber]

Oh okay. I don't understand code to well as you can tell.

[Fortron]

First off thank you for responding, i can't tell you how nice this forum is compared to other forums.
I understand the code a lot better now. the bracket things is a little embarsing thou

you might find this interesting, i attempted to create a stone from the bones and its kinda works

[REACTION:BONE_STONE]
   [NAME:Use bones in place of stone]
   [BUILDING:ALTAR:CUSTOM_s]
     [REAGENT:A:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE]
     [ANY_BONE_MATERIAL]
[PRODUCT:100:1:BOULDER:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:NONE]
   [SKILL:BONE_CARVE]

its create a stone called whatever the bones was, in my test its was donkey bone,
and it goes into the stock pile and even shows up as a stone in the stocks screen, however the mason can't use it also its still a bone too, the Bone to stone reaction used the stoned bone for its reagent,also you can use the bone stone to make buildings.
