An instrument ¿ is a new kind of procedurally generated good. On each generated world a dwarven civilization will have its own types of instruments with its own names.
Instruments come in two types. Some instruments are built by individual components which must be assembled, and some are made in a single step, like how instruments were made in previous versions or like other craft goods. Instruments that are assembled can then be placed like furniture. Instruments made in a single step can be carried around by dwarves or placed in coffers in taverns or temples.
Instruments, or their components, may require a variety of materials. Components may be made from wood, bone, stone, glass, ceramic, metal, or leather. In the case of metal, a dwarf will pick up the closest metal bar to make the component, unlike how other goods are made at the forge.
Traders may bring instrument components, but your civilization may not be able to build an instrument out of it, depending on what instruments your dwarves know how to make.
