    Different symbols for wands and rods, how?

    In my variant I'm using a custom font with additional symbols, and I've been trying to give wands and rods separate symbols. But I hit a config part that confuses me - the flavor definitions.

    I started by giving wands the symbolo no. 221:

    Code:
    K:wand:Magic Missile:128:221
    K:wand:Lightning Bolts:128:221
    K:wand:Frost Bolts:128:221
    K:wand:Fire Bolts:128:221
    ...
    Then I gave rods rthe symbol no. 222:

    Code:
    K:rod:Treasure Location:128:222
    K:rod:Door/Stair Location:128:222
    K:rod:Trap Location:128:222
    K:rod:Detection:128:222
    ...
    Finally I noticed the flavor pref section and didn't know what to enter there:

    Code:
    # Item flavor: Pewter
    L:172:130:45
    
    # Item flavor: Ivory
    L:171:129:45
    
    # Item flavor: Lead-Plated
    L:170:130:45
    
    ...
    45 was the old symbol for both wands and rods ... now what do I enter there if I want wands to have symbol no. 221 and rods to have smybol no. 222?
    I have a project problem? I have no project problem. I start a project, I work on it, it fails. No problem

    I'm confused about this question because the answer seems really obvious to me - replace 45 with 221 for wands and with 222 for rods. Is there something I'm missing?
    takkaria whispers something about options. -more-

      It seemed to me that rods and wands use the same flavours, and so I couldn't separete them. If the use different flavors, then the question is, how can I tell which flavor from the list is a rod flavor and which one is a wand flavor?

      I have exported the flavors to a pref file with the "dump visuals" command previously, this was the base for my new pref file.

        They use the same flavors because of the 45 in the flavor definitions file. Copy the list of wand/rod flavors, and make one list use 221 and the other 222 (where the 45 is in the original list).
