Custom workshop?
« on: May 12, 2010, 11:30:25 pm »

So I built a soap makers shop, when no dorfs really had any soaping ability. I check on it after a while and it comes up as "custom workshop". The layout changes everytime I move. I destroyed it and rebuilt it, but the same thing happens. Anyone else see this bug/feature?

This happened to me once; I had a number of workshops built at the same time, and when I went to use them, I found a Custom Workshop--which had no capabilities whatsoever.  I actually just left it, as I didn't realize what shop i was missing!

This has happened in the modding forums... several systems have made a non.txt file as a backup, like WINE I believe, and the game reads this backup since it is in the correct format and freaks out. Make sure the raw file containing your workshops isn't duped.
