"Need lye-bearing item" madness
« on: November 20, 2006, 09:24:00 pm »

I have a world that was created with a fairly old version, that I am using with the latest version of DF.

I've made a bunch of lye at the ashery, and it is absolutely stuck there.  There are 15-something buckets of lye in the ashery.  I can't make soap with it:  "need lye-bearing item."  I can't make potash with it.  "need lye-bearing item."  I have plenty of empty barrels around.

What do I need to do to get this stuff out of my ashery and into some useful form?  Is there some hauling job that should be happening that isn't? What's the deal?

This is fixed in the next version -- they should be pouring those buckets into empty barrels, but they forgot how.
