Two bugs for the price of one!
« on: January 22, 2007, 03:20:00 pm »

Earlier in my current game, I had a dwarf who was somehow able to make an artifact scepter out of water. When I updated to the latest version, the scepter melted, but the dwarf was ecstatic.  I'd assume dwarfs are supposed to go insane if their artifacts melt.

Also, if you select "View Creature" on a dead dwarf in the unit list, it will take you to that dwarf's thoughts, even though that dwarf is dead. Rather creepy.

Errr mostly I think that you wouldn't encounter these problems in a recent version of the game with a recenlty generated world. It's still worth noting but i doubt it's gonna be a problem.

Also, I think the view thoughts on a dead dwarf just tells you their last thoughts before they died--which is useful, sometimes, if a berserk dwarf dies before you think to see what made them so upset.

It's odd about the melting, since it goes through the regular insanity pipeline.  I'll check to see if I sent it as an exception or something.
