What the F... does a cauldron do ?
« on: March 22, 2012, 10:33:00 am »

Hi,

There are a few tools that i ve found absolutly no use for although they really sound like they do and it s bugging me.
I ve purchased a cauldron in fortress mode and none of my dwarf seems to be using it...
Also meat cleaver, fork...
I ve tried to put them next to my butcher and kitchen with no result.

Can anyone enlighten me ?

Sorry man, those items have no use whatsoever in Fortress mode, and I'm not sure about adventures.

no use at all, just metl them down. Though I think carving forks were actually pretty decent weapons.

Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.

Cauldrons are currently only used by night creatures to cook the remains of their victims. Eventually, you'll probably also find them in houses in Human towns and cities.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

They are currently like toys: decoration only. Melt them down.
