Blue Heart Status Symbol?
« on: December 28, 2015, 10:45:41 am »

Hey guys, this is my first post. I'd say I am an intermediate DF player, but I noticed this strange blue heart status symbol flashing above a dwarf of mine.

I have no idea what this is. I checked the wiki and there was no answer so I checked her thoughts and it didn't say anything unexpected.
Maybe something new to the latest version? I am playing on 0.42.04 (latest)
I think she was also gathering plants during this.
pls help.

EDIT: Bouchart unfortunately discovered that there is no new dwarven romance mechanic, but rather that Sodel was carrying a dimplecup. oops.

Check his relationships. Maybe he is in love with someone?

Yep did that, only has a friend at most. I'm thinking maybe the blue heart signifies a new friend? I want to be certain before I update the wiki though. I do remember seeing someone flee the scene as soon as I noticed it. Not sure if it was the friend though.

He's probably carrying a dimple cup, which are blue hearts.

ooops. That's totally it probably since it's an herbalist. I thought all plants had the spade sprite when gathered. Turns out it's not the same for dimplecups.
Well thanks, I guess I was just desperate for my gurlfrand Sodel to find a new lover.  :P

Yup, dimple cup.
