[OBJECT:PLANT]

[PLANT:MUSHROOM_HELMET_PLUMP]
	[NAME:plump helmet][NAME_PLURAL:plump helmets][ADJ:plump helmet]

	Every plant needs a structural material so that the game knows how it behaves when it's alive.

	Here the material is added to the plant, using a template from the material file.
	[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:STRUCTURAL:STRUCTURAL_PLANT_TEMPLATE]
		[MATERIAL_VALUE:2]
		[MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:DRINK_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:DRINK]
		[MATERIAL_REACTION_PRODUCT:SEED_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:SEED]

	Here the material is marked as the structural material (this could be below the edible tags which come next).  In general, you can use LOCAL_PLANT_MAT|<token>, PLANT_MAT|<plant>|<token>, CREATURE_MAT|<creature>|<token> or INORGANIC|IRON (though the game might hiccup for a while specifically on plants that aren't structurally plants).
	[BASIC_MAT:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:STRUCTURAL]

		We also modify it a bit to make the plant edible.  Any token material can be used here to modify the material that was created from the template.

	[PICKED_TILE:29][PICKED_COLOR:5:0:0]
	[GROWDUR:300][VALUE:2]

	Next we establish an alcohol material in much the same way as the structural material.

	[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:DRINK:PLANT_ALCOHOL_TEMPLATE]
		The material template is just called "alcohol" so we need to give it a proper name.
		[STATE_NAME_ADJ:ALL_SOLID:frozen dwarven wine]
		[STATE_NAME_ADJ:LIQUID:dwarven wine]
		[STATE_NAME_ADJ:GAS:boiling dwarven wine]
		We also set a few more numbers to distinguish the alcohol from the template.
		[MATERIAL_VALUE:2]
		[DISPLAY_COLOR:5:0:0]
		[EDIBLE_RAW]
		[EDIBLE_COOKED]
		[PREFIX:NONE]
	[DRINK:LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:DRINK]

	The seed material and information is established in a similar fashion.  Other plants (including trees) add materials in the same way, though trees cannot be used at this time with seeds/thread/drink etc.  They just use the TREE tag to obtain a wood material (they also have a structural material for their live form).
