I have a tree-people race that can use a glass-type material to create weapons, but you cannot melt bars of it down, and you cannot make anything out of it at a forge. I have confirmed its presence in the game through both DFHack and reactions to produce it.

I believe it lets you make windows out of it.

[smeeprocket]

glass can make trap components and a lot of other things, as well. But I don't think it can make weapons in vanilla.

You can make most furniture out of glass and it has an okay value. I usually make terrariums so my animals have nice cages.

I've used glass for the pieces for a screw pump to pump magma, as well, as it is magma safe.

[Button]

I believe the [IS_GLASS] tag just lets mooding dwarves know that they can use a "boulder" of that material when they have a strange mood that requires glass.

To make weapons out of it, you'll need to make a custom reaction.

[Dirst]

I think having IS_METAL and IS_GLASS in the same material may be the problem.  And the MAX_EDGE is excessively high... try something like 100000.

You have ITEMS_HARD twice, and I think that ITEMS_BARRED and ITEMS_SCALED are redundant with ITEMS_HARD.

Out of curiosity, did you need to make a custom workshop to use the glass-making reaction?

[Ladygolem]

Doesn't ITEMS_BARRED and ITEMS_SCALED simply mean that it will be used for things made out of bone and shell, respectively? Like a dwarf told to  "Make bone crafts" will consider treekin glass as a suitable material to use.

[deepspaceprobe9]

To Dirst: I did, in fact have to make a custom workshop to use the glass-making reaction, along with reactions, though I suspect I could have attached them to the existing glass furnace. Also, The maxedge is insanely high on purpose, as  I was meaning to make a material that was extremely dangerous to unarmoured enemies, but not a very big threat to properly equiped foes. I've also done some slight modifications that have it show up in arena mode.

Doesn't ITEMS_BARRED and ITEMS_SCALED simply mean that it will be used for things made out of bone and shell, respectively? Like a dwarf told to  "Make bone crafts" will consider treekin glass as a suitable material to use.

ITEMS_BARRED and ITEMS_SCALED are only used for bone/shell armor (and correspond to [BARRED] and [SCALED] within armor itemdefs) - they are not used for things like crafts.

[Ladygolem]

My mistake. Listen to them, not me, I'm quite new to all of this!

[Quietust]

As for IS_GLASS itself, I'm pretty sure the only thing it does is affect how certain things are named - for example, it'll turn flasks into vials, doors into portals, chests into boxes, and cages into terrariums (though it probably won't affect the item's display tile). It might also permit said terrariums to be filled with water (unless that code is hardcoded to handle the 3 builtin glass types).
