Requesting iron corkscrews creates corkscrews of any ava
« on: November 09, 2007, 06:25:00 pm »

I queued up some enormous iron corkscrews at my magma forge.  Apparently I didn't have enough iron, but that didn't stop my smith, who started making corkscrews out of anything that was available: aluminum, gold, rose gold, copper.  Now I have some incredibly expensive corkscrews that I don't just want to shove into a screw pump and forget about!

This didn't happen to my iron chains or pipe sections, also queued up: when I didn't have enough iron, they got cancelled.

It's already a known bug.

It affects several items. Anvils and trap components I know for sure, I think there was another item doing it too but I can't recall.

It is rather fun to make lead anvils, though. Or adamantine trap components using only 1 piece of adamantine and the rest iron. Just make sure the last bar brought into the workshop is the material you want, and thats what will be made.

You could probably make items like this and melt them to create rare metals, like adamantine. Thats assuming you get more than 1 bar for the items when you melt them. I haven't really tried  :)
