Rotting meat
« on: April 13, 2010, 04:16:51 am »
I'm noticing in the next-to-latest version (sorry, forgot the version number) that all of my meats are rotting almost instantly when they come into my possession. I bought some from my civ's caravan, depot inside, and before my dwarves could even move the meats to the food stockpile, they were putting off miasma.

Is there some new mechanic I'm unaware of or is this a bug?

It's possible it's a bug.... literally. I believe that flies make any meat they come into contact with rot/disappear, and they now spawn infinitely.

Or it could be a normal bug. Try butchering an animal down underground, and see if it instantly rots too.

So there's that, as well. It looks like the only chronic problems that water can't cure are nausea and cave spider bites.
Which, coincidentally enough, can be cured by magma.
