So, you could make a metal without using the metal template-simply assigning a material value, melting point, boiling point, and name and let the rest randomize.

I'm considering NOT modifying gems simply because of how many there are. If I get enough time I will though.
Finished with metal, layer stone, and mineral stone files.

Ok done. All main combat values should be random for everything. Haven't tested yet, but if it works and people want it for some odd reason I'll upload the raws.

Remember that you're going to have to remove all instances of the [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:METAL_TEMPLATE] line.

I didn't randomize metal because that messes up embarking. It chooses a metal for your picks and axes, often something expensive like bronze or iron, and you can't change it because there is no option. But yeah, I removed all other instances of the others.
It's working so far, haven't fought anything yet though. I noticed that things aren't getting assigned to stockpiles properly though.

Huh. This thread's been dead for ten years.

Never mind that, it's necro time! Ñ

Genius idea if this ever gets picked up: salade colossus.

"This creature composed purely of a fantastically tough and dense material would be the bane of all beings, if it weren't for the fact that it barely comes up to a dwarf's ankle. They find contact with fleshy beings overstimulating, and prefer to flee basically any living creature they encounter, despite the fact that they pose ABSOLUTELY NO THREAT to the colossus's existence."

This would just be perfect. Just mining through the caverns and all of a sudden you see a tiny salade man being chased by a crundle. If anyone picks this up, do it; this would be amazing.

Praise BOB! It's back!

Back indeed it is.
