Did I break something? re: cutting glass "gems"
« on: August 04, 2009, 08:35:12 pm »

I just made my first attempt at modding, an alternate crystal glass recipe (pretty popular thing to do, I guess) but after doing so I noticed that I can't cut raw glass as a gem anymore, except for green glass. Odd, because I didn't even touch clear glass.

Any ideas what's going on? This is in version d11, in case it matters.

Did you regen? If you mod a reaction in a pre-existing world, it doesn't get counted and instead it just knocks another one off.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

Thanks, but no, I made a fresh world afterwards.

There's an old, weird problem with glass and the jeweler's (you can't assign certain jobs at the workshop itself). Try using the Manager instead.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.
Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

So it's not my fault, that's what I wanted to hear. ;D And yes, using the manager screen took care of it... I've never got into the habit of using that, I'm going to have to remember to use the manager more often.
