Include dwarf's profession in masterpiece announcements
« on: January 13, 2010, 07:17:41 am »

I just spent some some time trying to figure out how in the world my book keeper, with her only above-dabbling skill being record keeping, produced a masterpiece.  Turns out she has the same first name as my carpenter, who'd just produced a masterpiece barrel.  When announcing job cancellations the dwarf's profession is included, so there shouldn't be a problem including it with masterpiece announcements.

Or alternatively tell what kind of object was created.
Like we already have "engraved a masterpiece", then "created a masterpiece meal", "created a masterpiece rock instrument" or similar.

Good idea, I got about 5 masterpiece announcements in a new fortress yesterday and got all excited. Turns out my cook was making masterpiece... plump helmet and tallow roasts. Excuse me for a moment.

And what's wrong with sauteed mushrooms?

Anyway, yeah. Good suggestion.
