@Lordinquisitor: Nihilist has it, we've been using it in the pogeymans mod. 1:2 is resistant, 2:1 would be weak. In practice, you seem to have to jack the numbers up quite a bit to get a dramatic effect, though (we've been using factors of 100).

Okay, after lots of back and forth i have now managed to make applesauce from apples..
now.. is there any way to make applesauce brewable while leaving the source apples unbrewable. If this is impossible, how would i go about making a barrel of drink as the result of a reaction?

Edit: okay i figured most of it out by looking at the mead raws, however, when i produce the cider all i get are DRINKS [5]

Yeah, thats easy, just change  [PRODUCT:100:5:DRINK:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:applesauce:DRINK_MAT] to
 [PRODUCT:100:5:DRINK:NONE:PLANT_MAT:APPLESAUCE:DRINK_MAT]

Then make a fake plant called applesauce with no natural occurence and an alcoholic drink to it.

Quick question: Can I make a civ hostile by default, without using baybsnatcher ? I only know about "utterances" or removing "can_speak" but that also removes their nobles and names. I dont want "evil dude 1 the evil dude" attacking, but invaders with names.

[ITEM_THIEF] will also force hostility.

I am often bad at phrasing things - don't hesitate to ask for clarification if something I said doesn't make sense.

Sup gang. I'm a little stumped by an interaction modification that I know is possible. How do you make a normal material emission, solid glob style, fire multiple globs at the same target?

I think I have a case of trying to be too fancy for myself, but here it goes. My goal is to make a reaction that randomly produces 1 item from a specific grouping of items. Specifically, I am intending a reaction to the effect of "make rune stone" and it produce any one of (currently) 3 different runes, all of which are currently toys with the only difference being name. I was attempting to avoid having multiple products with different probability if it could be helped (which I don't think it can unfortunately), but I was curious if anyone had any knowledge/ideas to try. My attempts with REACTION_CLASS gave me a handy instant crash DF reaction, and I am afraid to admit I don't understand the reaction class product tag well enough to experiment with it. Any ideas?

Currently you can't really do that unfortunately, you can give a percentile chance of succeeding in each of the seperate outputs, not choosing between them

Been trying to figure this out but it seems to be rather random depending on the reaction...

What exactly determines the time it takes to complete a reaction?

Clutter, skill, and number of products.

I have some questions about some rather unusual reactions I want to create.

Basically, I want to create some reactions with a custom workshop that do the following:

1. Do nothing - takes no reagents, has no products, and simply wastes dwarven time. (A reagent that is not consumed is fine, too.)
2. Creates something from nothing - has no reagents, but has a product. Preferable, it creates a LOT of something, as in, has a dozen or so products.
3. Destroys a lot of reagents to create nothing - plenty of reagents, but no product.

I'm not all that familiar with the workshop systems, so I'm asking for confirmation before I start doing some of this extreme modding.

So, for example, I want to know if this:

Code: [Select]
[REACTION:DO_NOTHING]
[NAME:do nothing]
[BUILDING:SWEATSHOP:CUSTOM_N]
[SKILL:MASON]

Is actually valid code?  Do I need to do more, and am missing something, or does this actually work?  It just seems too short to work...

If I have similar code that consists entirely of reagents or else entirely of products, does that still work?

Hm, are you sure number of products matters? I've been experimenting with a "labor magic" reaction at the (custom) magma cauldron, which has a 1% chance of producing 1 refined magic bars but otherwise does nothing. For the skill-ups I added random(average 3.5 per task) vaporizing stones which just have pretty colors, and the reaction time didn't seem to change(until the skill-ups kicked in).

1. Do nothing - takes no reagents, has no products, and simply wastes dwarven time. (A reagent that is not consumed is fine, too.)
2. Creates something from nothing - has no reagents, but has a product. Preferable, it creates a LOT of something, as in, has a dozen or so products.
3. Destroys a lot of reagents to create nothing - plenty of reagents, but no product.
These are easy, just delete the reagents and products from "regular" reactions. "Something from nothing" reactions are popular modder debug tools.

So, for example, I want to know if this:

Code: [Select]
[REACTION:DO_NOTHING]
[NAME:do nothing]
[BUILDING:SWEATSHOP:CUSTOM_N]
[SKILL:MASON]

Is actually valid code?
Looks good :J I've actually been considering something like that to let me pseudo-station civilians, now that the military interface is so much worse…

huh... that's... odd

I have one reaction, buck apples, which takes from 8-15 seconds at 100fps

[REACTION:APPLEBUCK]
   [NAME:Buck Apples]
   [BUILDING:PONY_APPLETREE:CUSTOM_B]
   [PRODUCT:100:1:PLANT:PONY_APPLE:PLANT_MAT:PONY_APPLE:PLANT]
   [SKILL:STANCE_STRIKE]

whereas this one, a slightly more advanced reaction is instant

[REACTION:PONY_CHOCO]
   [NAME:Make Chocolate]
   [BUILDING:KITCHEN:CUSTOM_C]
   [REAGENT:A:1:PLANT:COCOA:PLANT_MAT:COCOA:PLANT]
   [REAGENT:B:1:BOX:NONE:NONE:NONE][CONTAINS:A][BAG][PRESERVE_REAGENT]
   [PRODUCT:100:1:PLANT:CHOCOLATE:PLANT_MAT:CHOCOLATE:PLANT]

The second one has no skill. Skills are a factor.
