Title: Bone armour useable in adventure mode?
Post by: Wiles on March 13, 2008, 09:56:00 am

I tried adding bone armour to be useable in adventure mode.

I could never get it to be made out of bone. It was always made out of rope reed.

I wasn't sure what would make it work, so I tried a few variations. None of them worked. I know you can make bone armour in fortress mode, but I don't know how to in adventure mode.

code:

you need to add a [matrial_bone] tag in there or [matrial:bone] try that and it should fix it

You also need to watch how you spell MATERIAL. (Maybe that is why your game doesn't work anymore? I seem to remember you asking questions such as "I've modded a lot of stuff and now weird stuff is happening" :-)

Neither of those would be valid armour tokens.

Now you're just making things up.

Like I said before, they are not valid armour tokens.

How do you mean, make it in adventure mode? You mean it's not showing up in shops, or..?

If your entries work in fortress mode, but not adventure mode, I'd report it as a bug.

Sorry, I meant having the armour available when you start a new adventurer.

I know platemail can be made out of bone in Fortress mode, but in adventure mode it is always made of the highest quality metal available.

I wanted to make an armour made out of bone as the only option for one entity. Whenever I started playing the armours I tried were all made out of rope reed.

I'd swear I read something about weapon and armor choices being hard-coded for adventurers right now; it's possible that extends to material.

However, bone showing up as rope reed is weird. Bug-report it, I'd say, cos your entries look fine.

Yeah, I keep getting rope reed plated boots in adventure mode. I guess it fails to pick a suitable bone material when it tries to spawn the item.

This greatly interests me.

Thanks for the replies. Maybe I'll just give them a padded armour instead; but I don't know how well rope reed would hold up in combat. :)
