[40a] Miasma from an invisible corpse
« on: August 19, 2008, 06:15:59 pm »

First off: The corpse is not 'h'idden.

Now, for the rest of the story: It's a goblin corpse that I drowned in a death chamber, along with three others. I used cages hooked to a lever to place them in the chamber, then started the water flowing in. They all died very nicely, I'd say. But along about the time where I've got all the other trash cleared out, the miasma starts. If I 'k' over the square it originates in, there's nothing there.

I've got the orders set to forbid enemy corpses and items. The other three corpses I could view and reclaim for dumping just fine, but this one is invisible. I can see it from the stock screen, but if I zoom to it, it doesn't show up at all. I have a save file available if it's needed. (goblin hasn't rotted yet)

EDIT: I managed to dump the corpse via the stocks menu, and it's now visible. I do still have the save file if it's needed.
