lava madness
« on: December 19, 2006, 12:58:00 pm »

well... i think this'll go down in the records as the most fiery death of a fortress.  i was channeling lava into the chasm, the dwarf who needed to build a channel decided to eat some plump helmet instead... so on and so forth.  but i discovered in the carnage that turtle shells and rough gems don't get obliterated when the lava hits them.  stone blocks, stones, and iron things don't get destroyed either.

Yeah, this might be related to a bug where blood/bones didn't disappear when a dwarf jumped in the chasm.  It doesn't seem to check the items more than once, and it handles them in a strange order that makes them survive sometimes.
