Editing v0.31:Inorganic material definition token

{{quality|Exceptional|21:09, 30 March 2011 (UTC)}}{{av}}

The following tokens can be used in inorganic material definitions, generally those for stones, gems, and metals. They cannot be used with materials attached to plants or creatures.

! Token
! Description
|-
|[WAFERS]||Used on metals, causes the metal to be made into wafers instead of {{L|bar}}s.
|-
|[DEEP_SPECIAL]||Causes the stone to form hollow tubes leading to Hell. Used for {{L|raw adamantine}}
|-
|[METAL_ORE:metal:chance]||Allows the ore to be {{L|smelter|smelted}} into metal. Multiple tokens allow multiple types of metal to be smelted from a single ore.
|-
|[THREAD_METAL:metal:chance]||Allows strands to be extracted from the metal at a {{L|craftsdwarf's workshop}}.
|-
|[DEEP_SURFACE]||Causes the stone to line the landscape of {{L|Hell}}. Used for {{L|slade}}.
|-
|[AQUIFER]||Allows the stone to support an {{L|aquifer}}.
|-
|[METAMORPHIC]||Causes the material to form {{L|metamorphic layer}}s.
|-
|[SEDIMENTARY]||Causes the material to form {{L|sedimentary layer}}s.
|-
|[SOIL]||Causes the material to form {{L|soil}} layers, allowing it to appear in (almost) any biome. Mining is faster and produces no stones.
|-
|[SOIL_OCEAN]||Causes the material to form {{L|soil|pelagic sediment}} layers. Mining is faster and produces no stones.
|-
|[SOIL_SAND]||Causes the material to form {{L|sand}} layers, allowing it to appear in {{L|sand desert}}s and {{L|ocean}}s. Mining is faster and produces no stones. Sand layers can also be used used for making {{L|glass}}. Can be combined with [SOIL].
|-
|[SEDIMENTARY_OCEAN_SHALLOW]||Permits an already [SEDIMENTARY] stone layer to appear underneath shallow ocean regions.
|-
|[SEDIMENTARY_OCEAN_DEEP]||Permits an already [SEDIMENTARY] stone layer to appear underneath deep ocean regions.
|-
|[IGNEOUS_INTRUSIVE]||Causes the material to form {{L|igneous intrusive layer}}s.
|-
|[IGNEOUS_EXTRUSIVE]||Causes the material to form {{L|igneous extrusive layer}}s.
|-
|[ENVIRONMENT:class:type:freq]||Specifies what types of layers will contain this mineral. See below.
|-
|[ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:stone:type:freq]||Specifies which specific minerals will contain this mineral. See below.
|-
|[LAVA]||Causes the stone to line the edges of {{L|magma}} pools and volcanoes, and causes the stone to be formed when {{L|water}} and {{L|magma}} are mixed.

==ENVIROMENT and ENVIRONMENT_SPEC==

Format:
* [ENVIRONMENT:<class>:<inclusion type>:<frequency>]
** Class may be ALL_STONE, IGNEOUS_ALL, SOIL, SOIL_OCEAN, SOIL_SAND, METAMORPHIC, SEDIMENTARY, IGNEOUS_INTRUSIVE, IGNEOUS_EXTRUSIVE, or ALLUVIAL.
*** ALL_STONE is equivalent to METAMORPHIC, SEDIMENTARY, IGNEOUS_INTRUSIVE, IGNEOUS_EXTRUSIVE, and ALLUVIAL.
*** IGNEOUS_ALL is equivalent to IGNEOUS_INTRUSIVE and IGNEOUS_EXTRUSIVE.
* [ENVIRONMENT_SPEC:<id>:<inclusion type>:<frequency>]

The inclusion type can be CLUSTER, CLUSTER_SMALL, CLUSTER_ONE, or VEIN - CLUSTERs are large ovoids that occupy their entire local map tile if present, CLUSTER_SMALL inclusions are blobs of 3-9 tiles, CLUSTER_ONE inclusions are single tiles, and VEINs are large streaks.

The frequency number varies from 1 to 100 and determines the relative frequency at which the stone will be chosen to appear - if all frequency values are the same, then all stones will be equally likely to appear.

Due to an error in the raw parsing logic, having multiple ENVIRONMENT_SPEC tokens will cause the inclusion type to be parsed in ''reverse'' order compared to the stone ID and frequency values - in the vanilla raws, this causes [[native platinum]] to appear as veins within [[chromite]] and as small clusters within [[olivine]].{{bug|1429}}
