Tools can be used as weapons in item_tool.txt in the raw files. They could probably be used as ammo too. If I put in a bolt with [TOOL_USE:LIQUID_CONTAINER] and then make a reaction that fills it with poison would the poison be splattered if the bolt breaks on impact?

Tools cannot be used as weapons, and cannot be used as ammo.

Tools are ITEM_TOOL while weapons are ITEM_WEAPON and ammo is ITEM_AMMO.

I put [TOOL_USE:LIQUID_CONTAINER] in the bolt item and embarked with bolts. the game didn't crash. Also made plump helmet extract to be put in ammo containers. Farmers didn't do it tho. Oh well.

If you check your errorlog.txt, it will say that TOOL_USE is not a valid ammo token. Check that file often.

Then how come this has weapon tags?

But for poison stuff check out this thread the bottom of the page and page 2 at the top explains how-to poison weapons.

Useful Poison?

Then how come this has weapon tags?

I will try to explain it: if a bird has legs it doesn't mean that a dog has wings just because it has legs too.

Tools have some similar to weapons tokens, while it's not the opposite.

And none of that applies to ammo.
