Worthless Stone Only

[WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY] - Only a stone of value 1 can be used?

This tag is probably unconcerned with value, but rather economic stone status -- whether the stone is used in any specific reactions. For instance, anything which is listed under a [REAGENT:BOULDER...] is fair game (broad categories of reagents do not force economic stone status), but if it were to directly specify [REAGENT:CLAYSTONE...] then claystone would become an economic stone and would be forbidden from any WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY reactions.

One thing that would be necessary is to verify whether the WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY setting honours the economic stone state of the Status screen -- i.e., if you enable an economic stone for routine crafting (say your entire fort is built on dolomite), is it now considered worthless stone? --JT 20:42, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

Tested

I tested what I had written on account of the WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY tag. It forces the reaction to honor the settings on the Economic Stone screen. Without this tag, ANY stone can be used in the reaction. With it, only stone allowed in the Economic Stone screen can be used.

Further, [REAGENT:A:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE][WORTHLESS_STONE_ONLY] can result in using a Stone, Flute, Bar of Ash, as the reagent. Upright Path

Gemstones and Quantity

Consider the following reaction:

[REACTION:CHARCOAL_TO_DIAMOND] [NAME:make diamond from charcoal] [BUILDING:SMELTER:NONE] [REAGENT:A:1:BAR:NO_SUBTYPE:COAL:CHARCOAL] [PRODUCT:100:1:ROUGH:NONE:STONE:DIAMOND_CLEAR] [FUEL] [SKILL:SMELT]

This produces not 1 but 150 diamonds from one piece of charcoal. 150 is the default "product dimension" of bars, which is what usually comes out of the smelter, so there might be a connection there. I'm going to try and figure out how to get just one. --SethCreiyd 08:55, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
