My Broker issued a mandate for 3 "drums". I understand this to mean some instruments, but I never found a command to queue jobs for "drums", only "instruments". Am I supposed to make up lots of instruments, and hope some of them turn up as drums?

[SynthOrange]

At this point, yeah. You just make a lot of the class of object (instruments in this case) and hope that they get made eventually.

[Slime]

Perhaps it should be made so that if there is a mandate, these items will be automatically created if you choose to make some instruments.

[grendel]

I've never seen stone drums. Maybe drums can only be made of wood?

[Rollory]

I've had Jet drums get made, so I assume they can get made from any kind of rock/stone.

Cannot you order more specifi things in manager screen? (though I have restarted with new fortress so not sure)

[GrimmSweeper]

Nope. Only jobs that are available in the Manager screen are ones that occur naturally from buildings.

talking about mandates.. wouldn't it make more sense to have 0/2 rather than 2/2 (ie.. mandate completed, rather than mandate yet to be filled?)

... btw.. where do i find out how much time i've left to complete mandates?

So far as I know there isn't a way to see exactly how long you have to fulfill a mandate, but you can get a general idea from the colors.   Brown is a new mandate, yellow has been waiting a while and red is about to run out.
