As far as the item inheritance and crafting goes, the wiki page on modding did mention it and it does make design a bit more interesting. It also makes that info about the Hunting Horn all the more useful too! Are there any other items like the Hunting Horn? Or is there something else that makes the Hunting Horn well suited for a base item?

Oh. Well that makes things more interesting from a design perspective. So it's a modding quirk and not a bug. Thank you for the help ^.^

Hello

 I think a simple misunderstanding of what was meant by "BASE ITEM".
~Base item~ this is an object in the game that can be created, it also serves as a base for the; type, material, weight, purpose etc.

So for your code;
.Fiber Cord.  "Cord" etc etc

I was using "BASE ITEM" as a variable to provide an example, my apologies for not being more clear about that. The overall question was if it would be possible to create an item without using that... tag? definition? I'm not sure what to refer to it as. Thank you for that list too.

Modding / Adding in new Items question

Hey all, I'm messing around with the modding that is possible in the game and wanted to make sure I hadn't run into a quirk before I investigated further.

Whenever I add in a new entry such as this for example's sake:

Code: [Select]

.Fiber Cord. "BASE ITEM"  *TIMBERCRAFT* [effort:1] [phys:hands] /60/ %-40% |-2|
{Fiber Strip} (3) [remove]
{Knife} <Small knife>and do not put the "BASE ITEM" into the entry, the item will not show up as an entry in the menu. From my understanding I should be able to, am I misunderstanding that?
The game does seem to detect that the item is there, as it'll read the item after it if it has "BASE ITEM" as #2 in the list. To clarify, if I have two items, 'Fiber Strip' and 'Fiber Cord'; if 'Fiber Strip' does not have the "BASE ITEM" tag while 'Fiber Cord' does, 'Fiber Strip' will not show up in the menu while 'Fiber Cord' does as the entry after 'Fiber Strip'.
