Obsidian short swords include wood
« on: December 22, 2007, 05:00:00 pm »
On a fortress I started in 33e or 33f, I noticed several odd things about obsidian short swords that suggested the game things they contain wood.

. Elves object to trades with obsidian short swords
. Once I saw a cancel message on a job to create obsidian short swords because of a lack of wood resources

Sorry, apparently this is by design and I never noticed it before.  Go ahead and delete this topic.

I really think the game needs to clue players in on this more somehow, though.  It just keeps coming up.

Hrm.  Maybe all jobs should list the items they will require somewhere when you have them selected on the list...  this would generally be useful to new players.
