No quern work order for mill plants?
« on: February 27, 2023, 08:06:11 pm »

My querns don't show the workshop work order for milling plants.

I can set a manager work order for milling plants, but I can't figure out how to give a mill plants work order to a specific quern. The plant>slurry and seed>paste options are available, and the mill plants job is available as a normal workshop job.

On a whim, I tried unlinking all of the quern-associated stockpiles, but nothing changed.

Next up, I guess, is to see if a millstone is any different.

Advice? Wisdom? Thoughts? Prayers?

I'll submit to the suggestion and/or bug threads if advised.

You can't add a workshop-specific "mill plants" work order to a quern, apparently. Only slurry/paste work orders are available.

You can, however, add a workshop-specific "mill plants" work order to a millstone.

Blue Dwarf has been happy lately. He did some !!science!! recently. He admired a fine forum post lately. He was enraged by a forum troll recently. He was upset by the delayed release of the new version of Dwarf Fortress lately. He took joy in planning a noble's death recently.

OK! Thanks! Time to bump power generation up the list of priorities.

Do you think the quern-based work order's absence is an oversight or intentional?
