Based on this, is the article incorrect in its assessment of how cuts are decided? It would seem "brilliant" is never used alone, and "rose" isn't on our list. I would like someone to check my findings before I edit the article, since I'm not that experienced with looking into the raws. Thanks. --[[User:Timrem|timrem]] 01:09, 14 April 2012 (UTC) | Based on this, is the article incorrect in its assessment of how cuts are decided?

Just FYI, dwarves can now polish non-gemstone rocks into cabochons in the jewelers workshop. Even slate!--Auric 18:26, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Gem cuts
If I'm reading it correctly, raw/objects/entity_default.txt defines what cuts of gem a civ can produce:
| Dwarf | Human | Goblin | Elf / Kobold / Animal men | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| STONE_SHAPE: |
|
|
|
|
| GEM_SHAPE: |
|

Moving large gems
Large gems can be used as bait in animal traps, upon destruction of the animal trap, this gems is dropped next to where the animal trap was. So, this is a method for moving gems, though not a very reliable one. Also 'large gems' can be chosen as one of the types of 'finished goods' for a stockpile. Once a large gem is encrusted with other items, dwarves will move it to such a stockpile.
