A shame this mod was abandoned, I really loved the idea of a fleshed out dwarven firearm system...

Idea and executions are good but I see no point in equipping my dwarves with these if theyre gonna have such a high fire rate, that's just kinda op. just make a full squad of marksdwarves with these and watch as everything the game throws at you dies in mere ticks from the dwarven equivalent of a modern day navy seals platoon. plus it looks as if the mod author abandoned this so yeah rip.

Want to mention that my directed audience for my comment below is speaking to other players. If you read that as if it's directed at the mod author it can sound tone deaf. Not my intention. Also had to cut some fluff language because of character count.

Found an error and provided a fix described below:

Error log:
*** Error(s) finalizing the reaction MAKE_ARQUEBUS
MAKE_ARQUEBUS:Unrecognized Item Token: TRAPPART
*** Error(s) finalizing the reaction MAKE_BOLTSHOT_LIGHT
MAKE_BOLTSHOT_LIGHT:Unrecognized Item Token: TRAPPART
*** Error(s) finalizing the reaction MAKE_BOLTSHOT_HEAVY
MAKE_BOLTSHOT_HEAVY:Unrecognized Item Token: TRAPPART

The issue is TRAPPART should be TRAPPARTS

The file containing "TRAPPART" is reaction_blast_powder.

To fix this yourself go to that file (search in mods folder), replace TRAPPART with TRAPPARTS.
I had to delete all contents of the Installed_mods folder and restart my game for the fix to take.
Please implement this fix only on new worlds.

The fix II describe above fixed the error for me I hope it will help you resolve your errors

Is there any intent to finish this mod?

Has anyone been able to get this mod to work? I only have this mod and mineral powders, but whenever i activate them it wont generate a world regardless of load order.

An important note for anyone who wants to use this mod: I have found that the Stoneworking Expanded mod conflicts with this and the Dwarven Chemistry/Mineral Powders mods. If you try to load both of them, you will be unable to build a laboratory or grind stones at the millstone.

If you make stuff from this mod in workshops other than the laboratory, a lot of reagents aren't used. Like you can make steel cartridges in a forge with just steel bars instead of steel bars, brass bars and blast powder when making them in a lab.
