Adding soap and pots to an updated savegame
« on: August 31, 2011, 03:17:09 am »

Hi everyone.

Quick intro... I updated one of my saves from .18 to .25, but now I can't produce soap (it's not even on the orders menu from the manager) or pots (completely absent from workshop or manager menu).

I was wondering if this could be fixed with a mod :(

Thanks!

In the meantime, in case it's impossible to fix this... would abandoning my fortress and then reclaiming will fix it?

Keep in mind that I no longer have the "region" just  the saved game :(

The saved game and the region are the same thing, more or less. Without the region, the save can't exist. And AFAIK, the only fix is to make a new world.

So my only option is to generate a new world?

Damm :(

I hoped this could be modded in...

It is definitely possible to edit the existing reaction for making soap and replace it with the new one for making tallow soap (provided you keep the ID the same) - I've done so with two worlds generated prior to 0.31.19.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

You should be able to use dfworldtinker to add in the new reactions. Its kinda quirky so be sure to back up your save before messing with it.
