− | + | '''Decorations''' are fancy embellishments of your goods that, while unnecessary, greatly adds to their value for [[trade]] and other purposes by adding another material to the base item. Most decorations have quality levels: a base value of 10☼, multiplied by its [[Item_value#Material_Multipliers|material multiplier]] and [[Quality|quality multiplier]], separate from the item itself. When an item is decorated, it is shown with double angle brackets - for example, a (no quality) decorated +steel battle axe+ becomes a «+steel battle axe+». Decoration quality is shown outside the double angle-brackets, the item quality remains within them with the item. So if you have *«+steel battle axe+»*, you have a +steel battle axe+ with *decorations* on it. When an item has more than one decoration the quality level of the best one is shown. | |
− | You cannot | + | There are a number of caveats to these embellishments. Weapon decorations do not affect combat multipliers, even if your maul "menaces with spikes of steel." Adding decorations to an item does not increase its weight; this may be a bug. You cannot stud a metal object with the type of metal it is made out of. Decorations on products that were stolen or taken from [[caravan]]s certify the product as "home-made", and make it available for trade again. You cannot specify a specific object for a dwarf to decorate; their [[path]]ing will cause them to use the closest suitable object. With the addition of linked [[stockpile]]s, it is possible to set up a stockpile that will lend its contents to beautification; this was much more difficult in the past. |
