| Sets the basic material of the plant. According to Toady, you can use other materials (for instance, iron) but the game may hiccup on plants that aren't structurally plants. For crops, said material should have [STRUCTURAL_PLANT_MAT] to permit proper stockpiling. Generally, this should be "LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:material_name", using a material defined using MATERIAL, USE_MATERIAL, or USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE.

This article is about an older version of DF.

The default plants are stored in the plant_standard.txt file, while grasses are stored in plant_grasses.txt.

The singular form of the plants name as seen in game.
NAME_PLURAL
  • name
The plural form of the plants name as seen in game.
ADJ
  • adjective

ALL_NAMES
  • name

MATERIAL
  • material_name
Starts defining a new local plant material with the given name and no properties.[Verify]
USE_MATERIAL
  • material_name
  • old_material
Starts defining a new local plant material with the given name and using the properties of another local plant material.
USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE
  • material_name
  • template_name
Starts defining a new local plant material with the given name and using the properties of the specified material template.
BASIC_MAT Sets the basic material of the plant. According to Toady, you can use other materials (for instance, iron) but the game may hiccup on plants that aren't structurally plants. For crops, said material should have [STRUCTURAL_PLANT_MAT] to permit proper stockpiling. Generally, this should be "LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:material_name", using a material defined using MATERIAL, USE_MATERIAL, or USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE.

Environment Tokens[edit]

These tokens, also applicable to all plants, specify where the plants grow.

  • depth
The water depth at which saplings of this tree will drown. Exact behavior is unknown. Defaults to 4.
TREE_DROWN_LEVEL
  • depth
The water depth at which this tree will drown. Exact behavior is unknown. Defaults to 7.
SAPLING Makes young versions of the tree be called "[tree name] sapling"; otherwise, they are called "young [tree name]".

Crop Tokens[edit]

These tokens are used only for plantable crops and harvestable shrubs.

Token Arguments Description
SPRING Allows the plant to grow during spring.
SUMMER Allows the plant to grow during summer.
AUTUMN Allows the plant to grow during autumn.
WINTER Allows the plant to grow during winter.
GROWDUR
  • time
How long the plant takes to grow. See Time. Defaults to 300. There are 1008 GROWDUR units in a season.
VALUE
  • value
Value of harvested plant (default 1). Appears to have no effect in version 0.31.
PICKED_TILE
  • tile
The tile used when harvested. May either be a number or letter within apostrophes(confirm?). See character table. Defaults to 231 (τ).
DEAD_PICKED_TILE
  • tile
The tile used when a harvested plant has wilted. Defaults to 169 (⌐).
SHRUB_TILE
  • tile
What tile is used for shrubs bearing this plant. Can be either a number or a character inside apostrophes. Defaults to 34 (").
DEAD_SHRUB_TILE
  • tile
What tile is used for dead shrubs that once bore this plant. Can be either a number or a character inside apostrophes. Defaults to 34 (").
