Stocks screen and inaccessible items
« on: July 11, 2007, 07:35:00 pm »

Many items in my fortress seem to exist in some invisible x-zone.  On the stocks screen these items can't be 'z'oomed to, and on the trade depot, they're listed as inaccessible, with no distance to the item listed.  

For the most part, this is old goblin equipment.  These items haven't been claimed by nobles or anything.  I've been chasming narrow stuff for a while, is chasmed stuff never removed from the list?

I've also chasmed cages with live goblins in them to try to avoid the 15 or so hauling tasks a dead goblin generates.  Could this be equipment chasmed on live goblins?

It could be the chasming of the live goblins, or related to the bug that places items up around the top left corner of the map.  If it's possible to run an experiment where you toss a goblin into the chasm and then notice some new bad entries in the stock menu, that would be cool.

Man.  How great is it to be told, "Hey, you know what would be nice?  Could you go grab that goblin and throw him into this bottomless pit?  I want to see if his pants wind up in this magical pile to the northwest.  Thanks."
