The modding questions thread sometimes gets very cluttered, and different people know more about some categories, and less about others. For creatures, I would ask hugo, for interactions I would ask narhiril, for entities, deon. I hope it is a good idea to split the old questions thread into fields. If you disagree, simply dont post here, and it will disappear from itself after a few days

All reaction related  questions go here.

Hmm, I guess for adventure reactions and some reactions in general you could ask me. I tend to do a lot of adventure modding.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

Reactions are one of my specialties, Creatures are like you said another. I only know as much as I do, cause I played around with the ABS and Inorganic creatures. Also the old Undead for Regeneration helped and the bloodbeast. Once I learned how Functional Bodyparts work it was easy street from there.

But reactions are pretty high up there too, same as interactions (well kindof it's still new)

Posting to watch.  I approve of such a thread.  But can't contribute anything to kickstart this yet since I'm at school.

[Jake]

So, is this thread open for questions yet? I'm not sure if it's a change made in .34 or if I screwed up royally somewhere, but I've horribly broken the Black Powder Firearms mod somehow and I don't know why. (Details in the thread.)

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I have finished reviewing your issue, answer is in your thread

[IT 000]

Posting to watch and help. I'm disappointing I didn't make the list 

I can help with experimental theories and general help

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

IT000 Theory:
Can one target a reagent in a bag in a barrel using:
   [REAGENT:sweetener:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE][REACTION_CLASS:SWEET] --- main targert
   [REAGENT:sweet container:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE] --- first container
      [CONTAINS:sweetener]
      [PRESERVE_REAGENT]
      [DOES_NOT_DETERMINE_PRODUCT_AMOUNT]
   [REAGENT:sweet container's container:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE] --- container containing main target's container
      [CONTAINS:sweet container]
      [PRESERVE_REAGENT]
      [DOES_NOT_DETERMINE_PRODUCT_AMOUNT]

You'll need to add [FOOD_STORAGE_CONTAINER] to the barrel and the [BAG] tag to the bag. Also the bag should be :BOX:NONE:NONE:NONE]

It should work then, I don't know what will happen if the barrel contains any other items though. However I'm confident that if a barrel contained nothing but the sweetener in the bag, it would work.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

Ah but you see my reaction works fine without the [BAG] or [FOOD_STORAGE_CONTAINER] because it is a reagent that only seeks out anything holding something that it wants (cage, bag, jug, backpack, flask, you name it)

But I do have [FOOD_STORAGE_CONTAINER] for the barrels that acaully are used to hold the product.

But at least you are confident that it will work, I am.
see suger and syrup is SWEET but since suger gets bagged, and bags get barreled, well a standard sweetener and container combo fail since there is the second canainer holding both (pain in the ass when syrup is the only useable SWEET cause it only gets barreled)

EDIT:
I use this generic container selection reagents in so many of my reactions, because I have so many custom contianer/tools and I can't be bothered trying to remember what one hold what.

[IT 000]

I suppose your method is a little broader, but U-rist / Ur-ist right.

Post the results, I have the same problem with one of my reactions! 

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I suppose your method is a little broader, but U-rist / Ur-ist right.

Exactly 

Post the results, I have the same problem with one of my reactions! 

For sure, I hope it works, or else I made 20 extra PLAN B reactions for nothing

in regards to your sig, losing is winning for us.

Hmm. I got some results

1. Yes it does target the Mill barrel with suger in it (Suger>Bag>Barrel)
2. The Target is not consumed, but it might be the fact that I use "1" instead of "150" as a requirement.
2a. It could be that the POWDER_MISC is only having "1" taken from its mass
2b. I thought all custom reactions consume the entire reagent no matter what.

EDIT:
ok it seems none of the reagents are being consumed at all. anyone see why it is acting like this?

Can you arrange custom reactions in workshop submenus yet?
