Translucent metal?
« on: August 13, 2014, 09:01:31 pm »
I just received a demand from the current reigning mayor for translucent metal doors.  I haven't seen this before; how does one create translucent metal bars?

That's a bug, that's one of the new spoiler metals, he shouldn't have a preference for that. What version are you using, and is the save from an older version?
EDIT: Here's the issue, fixed in 40.06, but I guess it persists in old saves.

The internet encourages thoughtful, intelligent discussion and if you disagree I hate you.

I'm on 40.08 but the save started in 40.04 I believe. Should be interesting to see what happens when his demands aren't met!

He'll get an unhappy thought, and after a few years he'll forget about the demand. No dwarves will be punished.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Wait, so nobles don't slaughter your legendary metalsmiths anymore when you fail to meet their ridiculous/physically impossible demands?

What is this bullshit and where is my Dwarf Fortress?

You must be thinking of mandates. Demands are just "hey, I'd like a _____ right about now" thing.
