Possessed Armorer seemingly has all materials, but doesn't craft
« on: July 06, 2013, 12:05:49 am »
I checked with DFHack's showmood, and this armorer apparently has all of the supplies he needs, but is just standing there for some reason. I would rather not lose this guy to insanity, so if anyone could offer some insight to this particular issue, it would be very appreciated.

I had this happen to me earlier, too.  When an additional animal was butchered, the dwarf ran over to the bones, despite supposedly having enough already.  Good luck!

Stacks of bone are bugged--If you use them up, they exist as stacks of "zero" bones, but it says there's still a bone left. Even though there is not, in fact, any bone remaining.

Showmood isn't definitive. To be really certain, always check within the game itself.

It would help to see a screenshot of the workshop's con[t]ents to confirm that he's really collected all of the items. It'd also be good to see a [q]uery to make sure he actually is waiting for more items - if he "keeps muttering [name of artifact]", he has everything he needs and is constructing the artifact.

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.

I didn't know about t to check a workshop's items, turns out I didn't have any leather even though I could have sworn I bought some from the last caravan.

He constructed an item right after I built a tanner's.

Next time I will do more investigation rather than just showmood. Thanks to everyone who replied.
