So I am in the midst of a megaproject to build my fort inside a magma pipe.  But it's not just enough for me to use  the tiny bit of pipe I already have, I am expanding it up into the sky.  I have named my fortress "Redlantern, the spire of fire"  and have made some mods (glass fort mod so I can make the whole thing out of glass, and I made it so I can make crystal glass with any gem [including raw green glass] so I can do it all in crystal glass [it's just very labour intensive], and fire imps are trainable[fits with a magma pipe fort])

Thusfar things have gone well, I have 63 dorfs, 6Z levels, a 9Z level spiral staircase, a magma glass factory, a trade depot, an office for my broker/leader/stockkeeper, and very basic housing.

Minor problem now, I drained out my pipe a bit and started building down...and I can't use crystal glass blocks.  I have plenty in stockpiles, they can't all be tasked, I am producing more.  What is going on.

And to repay you for having read this rant, here is a picture of my broker's office (directly above the depot)


Also, what happens if a dorf gets a job to "check chest" and the chest in question is made of glass?


and my workshops with a spiral stair

Try not to make it look like a giant penis, would you kindly?


Jokes aside, that is AWESOME.

Words can't even describe it.

Except...

Dwarfy.

Yes, that fits it perfectly.

[Tarran]

Well, it could be your dwarves can't reach it, don't know any other reasons.

forbidden is also a probability, are they forbidden?

No other ideas though.

Yes, most likely, you either have somehow scheduled every one of those blocks for use in some heavy building project, or you have somehow cut off access to your warehouses.

(I recently chopped off access to my countess's quarters by mistake when I hit (z) - remove up stairs and ramps to cut away the ramps surrounding the natural rock spire I hollowed out for her living quarters, and took out the inner stairwell by mistake)
