Where'd my artifact go?
« on: March 30, 2010, 09:36:33 pm »

Somehow, I have misplaced the artifact throne I was saving for my King's throne tower. I believe I installed it somewhere in the fort. The problem is that I have nearly 250 chairs and thrones installed and searching each one is tedious. Somewhere in my fort a lucky dwarf has an artifact gneiss throne with menacing spikes of gneiss in their bedroom or a dining hall that doesn't belong to them. Is there a fast way to locate where the throne went so I can put it where it was meant to be?

Can you zoom to it via the stocks menu or the l menu?

 I know that if you press 'L' you can see all your various artifacts. I'm not sure if you can zoom into them by that menu though. Its worth a try.

The artifact menu didn't have a zoom option, but under the stocks I was able to expand the list of thrones and zoom to it. My tax collector had a much nicer throne than he needed in his office. Thanks, everybody.

Just remember that a furniture object won't contribute to room value if you make a room from it. So assigning that chair as a study to your noble is as effective as using a -schist throne-.

Are you sure about it? One of many counterexamples, from one of my forts, I made a royal bedroom out of a single bed right now.
