Adamantine borked in 31.04
« on: May 24, 2010, 01:36:45 pm »

Unless I'm missing something, there's no way to make adamantine in 31.04.  The strands just sit in the craft shop, and won't move to a nearby cloth pile.  Since the strands are still in the workshop, you don't get the option to "make adamantine wafer" at the smelter.

The option should be on the bottom of the smelting list; where they are in the fort doesn't have anything to do with that as long as they are there and they are accessible. Are you sure there is a clear path between the craft shop and the smelter?

Yeah, there's a clear path.  The option is there now, it's possible it was just scrolled off the bottom and I missed it.

I'm still puzzled as to why the strands are staying in the shop.

Check the 't' screen on the workshop. Are the strands tasked by anyone?

admantine strands live in cloth stockpiles, somewhat illogically.  Do you have any of those with space in them?  I haven't made anything out of admantium but I've processed a few strands and I thought I had a few wafers.

Yes, I'm aware of where adamantine strands go.  I've got a cloth stockpile in the workshop immediately below the craft workshop making the strands.  I know they're sitting in the workshop because they show up in the "t" screen.  They don't have a "task" flag.

31.04 fort (world was genned in .04 as well)

It's at the bottom of the task list. No stockpiles, my smelter guy pulls them straight from the workshop.

I had something similar happen. Dwarfs wouldn't touch the strands until I saved, quit and restarted. Then they went back to behaving normally.
