I want to make a super plant.
« on: March 17, 2013, 11:18:40 am »

Hello everyone. I'm new to modding on Dwarf Fortress, and I wanted to get into it. So first I wanted to make a super plant. It would have the following characteristics:
Grows Super Fast
Can be eaten raw
Cooked into foods
Brewed into a beverage
Made into clothing, its own fiber.
Made into thread
Powdered into a flour
An oil from it (?)

Only I have little idea to go about it. I have used       
[EDIBLE_RAW]
[EDIBLE_COOKED]
Tags on it. And by copying the plump helmet file it can be brewed into a beer. But how would I go about doing the rest, for example making it's own fibre? Cheers!

 Or if you are lazy like me just copy the stuff from pig tails for thread, cave wheat for flour, etc. :P just modify names afterward

This sounds cool, can you post it when you get it working for us? :)
