This article is about an older version of DF. |
Some items have characters surrounding the name, which is a way to determine certain properties at a glance.
Quality[edit]
Sword Ordinary
-Sword- Well-crafted (dashes/hypens)
+Sword+ Finely-crafted (plus signs/addition signs)
*Sword* Superior quality (asterisks/stars)
≡Sword≡ Exceptional (equivalents/triple equal signs)
☼Sword☼ A masterpiece (stars/open stars/circle stars)
See Item quality for a full explanation of how better qualities improve value and combat modifiers.
Improvement / Decoration[edit]
«Sword» Improved or decorated (much-less-than and much-greater-than signs/double less-than or greater than signs)
Decoration can have a quality modifier themselves, leading to combinations such as:
*«Sword»* Superior improvement/decoration
≡«+Sword+»≡ Exceptional improvement/decoration on a finely-crafted object
*«≡Sword≡»* Exceptional sword with superior decoration
These quality modifiers can be hidden in init.txt with [SHOW_IMP_QUALITY:NO].
Wear[edit]
xSwordx Showing some wear - worth 3⁄4 (surrounded by x's)
XSwordX Heavily worn or threadbare - worth 1⁄2 (surrounded by capital X's)
XXSwordXX In tatters or mangled - worth 1⁄4 (surrounded by double capital XX's)
Provenance / Ownership[edit]
(Sword) Not produced on-site (imported by traders or looted from raiders), does not count towards Created Wealth. (parentheses)
{Sword} Unclaimed/Forbidden (braces)
$Sword$ Owned by someone else. Only appears in adventure mode. (dollar signs)
Other[edit]
‼Sword‼ On fire (double exclamation points)
◀Sword► Magical (magic is not yet implemented) (forward and backward triangles)
Trivia[edit]
The longest possible item designation is ‼XX({≡«+Sword+»≡})XX‼, which designates (reading from the front) that it's on fire ( ‼ ), in tatters ( XX ), imported ( ( ), forbidden ( { ), exceptionally ( ≡ ) decorated ( « ), and of fine quality ( + ).
