+ | An '''instrument''' {{Tile|¿|7:1}} is a procedurally generated item used for making music in [[tavern]]s and [[temple]]s. | ||
− | [[ | + | Instruments come in four types defined by the skill necessary for play ([[Keyboardist|keyboard]], [[Stringed instrumentalist|stringed]], [[Wind instrumentalist|wind]], and [[Percussionist|percussion]]). Some instruments are built by individual components which must be assembled, and some are made in a single step like other [[finished goods]]. Instruments can be either hand-held or stationary. Stationary instruments are built like [[furniture]] with {{k|b}}-{{k|I}} command. Hand-held instruments can be carried around by dwarves or placed in [[coffer]]s in [[tavern]]s or [[temple]]s. |
− | |||
− | Instruments | + | Instruments and their components can be made out of a variety of materials, including [[wood]], [[bone]], [[shell]], [[stone]], [[silk]] [[thread]], [[plant fiber]] [[thread]], [[glass]], [[ceramic]]s, [[metal]], or [[leather]]. Out of those, [[thread]] can only be used for components, not for a full instrument. Most of instruments/components are made in [[craftsdwarf's workshop]]s, except [[ceramic]] ones are made at [[kiln]], [[leather]] ones at [[leather works]], [[glass]] ones at [[glass furnace]] and [[metal]] ones at [[metalsmith's forge]]. The new {{k|d}}etails menu can be used to select the type of metal used when forging instruments. Glass and ceramic instrument jobs do not yet support the details menu; all glass instruments will be made from [[green glass]] in your fortress (though [[caravan]]s can bring instruments or instrument parts made out of other types of glass), and the potter will choose the material for ceramic instruments. Assembling the instrument after all the components are finished is also performed in a craftsdwarf's workshop, and the skill needed to assemble it is defined by the material of the "main" part of the instrument (see below). |
− | + | Specific instruments, their names and the kinds of components they are built of are generated at [[world generation]] and are usually specific for each [[civilization]]. Traders may bring instrument components, but your civilization may not be able to assemble the instrument out of them, depending on what instruments your dwarves know how to make. | |

− | |||
− | + | In order to find out what instruments are available to your fortress, go to [[craftsdwarf's workshop]] and look under the instrument section. It will show the available instruments. Highlight each individual instrument will show their description and material required. Any instruments with a single component can be made directly. More complex ones require instrument pieces to be made first and the option associated with them is assemble XXX. Record the name of the instrument and enter the manager screen with {{k|j}}-{{k|m}}. Typing in the name of the instrument will show all the pieces required (possibly from other workshops). | |

During a [[strange mood]], dwarves may create instruments which use improper materials and/or do not include the required components (e.g. a metal-bells-on-a-glass-stand instrument made from wood with spikes of leather). | During a [[strange mood]], dwarves may create instruments which use improper materials and/or do not include the required components (e.g. a metal-bells-on-a-glass-stand instrument made from wood with spikes of leather). | ||

It should also be noted, that dwarven ingenuity can create instruments that could not be considered playable in the real world, such as the Kat- a small hand-held percussion instrument. It consists of a metal block. The "musician" shakes the block. The instrument has a single high pitch. |
Due to the block's only means of producing this high pitch being the displacement of air as it is shaken, it can be inferred that the dwarf shakes the block at several kHz, providing a great source of strength and endurance based [[cross-training]] for [[military]] dwarves. | Due to the block's only means of producing this high pitch being the displacement of air as it is shaken, it can be inferred that the dwarf shakes the block at several kHz, providing a great source of strength and endurance based [[cross-training]] for [[military]] dwarves. | ||
