[38a]Holdings/Armor stand
« on: February 11, 2008, 11:40:00 pm »

My sheriff needs 1 armor stand. It's ok when this thing stands in one of his rooms.
But if I define an Armory from the armor stand and assign this to the sheriff, he tell that he requires an armor stand...

Okay, I'll create a report.  I wonder...  does it care about armor stands placed in statue gardens either?  Maybe it is only checking the core rooms (bedroom/office/dining/tomb).

btw:
the armor stand was always located in the sheriffs office, but once there were like two rooms (armory and office) defined in the same space.

This should be fixed now.  Yeah, when the armor stand is defined as a room, it loses it's subordinate status to the office and is no longer considered a property of that room.  Now it'll check all rooms assigned to a dwarf rather than just the core room types.

Hey Toady! This is somewhat related: If someone wants a door in his room, don't you think that a door to that room should count? As of now, the walls of a room do not appear to be able to qualify for demands and, since doors count as walls, they aren't counted unless you actually build it in the room.

do you size the room so that it includes the walls too?

Penguin - maybe try setting the door as internal? (Not really sure what that does though  :)

External door acts as wall when you define the room size (stops the area from expanding), internal door counts as the room part, so you can part your room in 2 which will be still counted as 1 room.
