- For the tokens that define an individual material's properties, see Material definition token.
Material tokens are used to refer to various types of materials in a wide variety of places. They can take the following forms:
| Token | Arguments | Description |
|---|---|---|
| INORGANIC | MATERIAL_NAME | Specifies a standalone inorganic material defined in the raws, generally a stone or metal. For example, INORGANIC:IRON refers to iron, and INORGANIC:CERAMIC_PORCELAIN refers to porcelain. The material name can be substituted with USE_LAVA_STONE to automatically select the local lava stone, which is normally obsidian. |
| STONE | MATERIAL_NAME | Alias for INORGANIC:MATERIAL_NAME, intended for backwards compatibility. |
| METAL | MATERIAL_NAME | Alias for INORGANIC:MATERIAL_NAME, intended for backwards compatibility. |
| CREATURE_MAT | CREATURE_ID:MATERIAL_NAME | Specifies a material associated with a specific creature. Examples: CREATURE_MAT:DWARF:SKIN refers to dwarf skin. |
| LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT | MATERIAL_NAME | Alias for CREATURE_MAT:CREATURE_ID:MATERIAL_NAME, where CREATURE_ID is the creature currently being defined; as such, it can only be used in creature definitions. |
| PLANT_MAT | PLANT_ID:MATERIAL_NAME | Specifies a material associated with a specific plant. Example: PLANT_MAT:BUSH_QUARRY:LEAF refers to quarry bush leaves. |
| LOCAL_PLANT_MAT | MATERIAL_NAME | Alias for PLANT_MAT:PLANT_ID:MATERIAL_NAME, where PLANT_ID is the plant currently being defined; as such, it can only be used in plant definitions. |
| GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT | REAGENT_ID:REACTION_PRODUCT_ID | Specifies a material related to a reagent's material within a reaction. REAGENT_ID must match a [REAGENT], and REACTION_PRODUCT_ID must either match a [MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT] belonging to the reagent's material or be equal to "NONE" to use the reagent's material itself. |
| MATERIAL_NAME | NONE | Specifies one of the hardcoded materials listed below. Note that this goes in the token itself, not arguments (i.e GLASS_GREEN:NONE, not MATERIAL_NAME:GLASS_GREEN). |
| COAL | CHARCOAL, COKE, or NO_MATGLOSS | Specifies a material that can be used as fuel - charcoal or coke. Specifying NO_MATGLOSS (not NONE) will make it accept "refined coal" in general, which matches charcoal, coke, and generic refined coal. |
Several types of items expect a creature ID and caste ID (e.g. ANT:SOLDIER) in place of the material token.
It should be noted when using the table below, that you do not place (MATERIAL_NAME:(Your material here)). For example, green glass will be (GLASS_GREEN:NONE).
