Items show red in trading screen
« on: March 01, 2015, 11:25:07 pm »

They can't be sold even if my dorfs decorate them with gems and bones.
It is not a big deal, but is there any way to fix that?

Your nobles have imposed a ban on them  :P
Please them and hope for them to find another thing to ban.

"... and other races will not buy goods stolen from one of their caravans (then marked in red) unless they are tricked into asking for them via counteroffer, or the items are "laundered" by decoration or used to create other goods."

Obviously this is not completely true. Because I've already decorated them into masterwork....Maybe counteroffer is a solution.

Those are barrels, nothing important so I can dump their contents and use new containers.

You must have stolen it from a previous caravan.
