DF Modding / Expanding Engravings?
« on: January 09, 2019, 08:44:53 am »
Hey, I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me expand engravings. I've been trying to figure out how to add more descriptions into the generation so they are more varied and interesting, but so far I have just found descriptor_shape_standard.text.
That, basically, allows me to add the wide range of objects possible to carve... but only if a dwarf decides to carve a gem, I believe. So I added a lot of variety that is rarely applied. Plus, I still don't know how the actual engraving works, and how it interacts with the [TILE:] input, so I feel like the little I have done has had even less effect than I hoped.
If anyone knows anything to help, I'd greatly appreciate it! I'd love to have a lot of interesting artifacts with unique designs on them, or varied wall graffiti. I'm very new to modding, so I have little idea what I'm doing, just figuring it out as I go along.
