Greaves, Breastplates, Mail Shirts.
« on: December 27, 2014, 10:30:00 pm »

For whatever reason, I cannot make any of these. Every time I queue some up, there's a short ''cancels because job item lost or destroyed'' message and then it cancels them all. I do not know why. Copper is available. Iron is available [though im trying to make them out of copper for now]. Coke AND Coal are available. They are not forbidden. The metalsmith is not claimed, forbidden, blocked, or otherwise unusable for any reason. I can make shields, helms, gauntlets, low boots, and weapons without issue from the same material. So why the hell can't I make body armor?

Do you have the latest version? There was bug like that in one of the .20 versions.

I don't really know,  but the things you mentioned are the ones wich need a couple of bars instead of one... Is it possible that one forge is stealing a stack before the other gets all the bars it needs?

No, I only have the one forge, and 32 copper bars. It's probably just a bug I was unaware of. Now I just have to decide if I'm going to try and upgrade yet keep this world. Assuming that fixes it.

Are you sure you updated to .19 properly? I believe that was a .18 bug with smelting

I must confess I probably don't 'update' properly, which is why I'm concerned for my world, lol. Normally I just completely wipe my DF folder clean, and put in all new folders. I play as straight vanilla as possible, I only change my pop cap, warm/wet stone digging cancellations, and yearly saving.


Edit: Yep. Updated and now it seems to work. Also, my strange mood leatherworker [whom I'd forgotten about] is finally going about the business of collecting stuff, where he wasn't before. So everything seems to be working now.

It was a .21/.22 bug regarding multi-hauling.  There was maybe a day between releases to rush to bug fix out.  The problem was that existing multi-haul jobs (ore+coal/artifacts) became broken in the process.
