Reactions seem to be causing people some issues. As such, examples would probably be useful for those who'd like some help creating what they want. When adding a new reaction, make sure to add a line for it in the entity_default file, under the mountain (first section) section. For example, if adding the adamantine wafer reaction, open entity_default, go to the mountain entry (the first one), scroll down until you see [PERMITTED_REACTION:something] (like [PERMITTED_REACTION:TAN_A_HIDE]) and add another line that says [PERMITTED_REACTION:REACTION_NAME], where REACTION_NAME is whatever is stated in the reaction's REACTION tag, so in this case the entry would read [PERMITTED_REACTION:FREE_ADAMANTINE_WAFERS].
