So one of my armorsmiths just went into a mood and is demanding "rock bars", which I've never heard of before and I can't find on the wiki.  Help?

[FuzzyDoom]

I think that's a known bug. AFAIK, there's no such thing as a Rock Bar.

Check your armorer's preferences and see what stone and metal are preferred - by any chance is one of them a "native" metal?

[Joishi]

he likes stibnite, nickel, rock crystal, clear glass, coral, crosses, war hammers, gauntlets, backpacks, grates, and catapult parts..

Doesn't look like it.

It's a bug for display. It's either, metal bars or rock blocks he wants, don't remember which.

ok.  I think I already have some blocks - but maybe they're all wood.  I'll make some stone ones just in case.

Yea. this has happened a coupel times for me. once I started smelting the hell out of everything and he apparently wanted silver. the other time he just went and grabbed some mica blocks.

Well I'm too late.    He's now slowly wandering back to his room struck with melancholy.  *cries for Urist Mcmoper*  My first death.

This is not true. I have gotten strange moods in which rock bars did not mean either metal bars or rock blocks.

I just got this with my level-13 potash maker (also level-1 organizer, and level-3 in a bunch of social skills). My first guess was that maybe he meant "Rock Blocks" so I made half a dozen rock blocks (dolomite and gypsum). Nope, he ain't biting. The only other thing on his demands list is logs, which I've got plenty of.

Edit: Just set up a smelter and wood furnace, and then started smelting Limonite (an ore of iron). As soon as my first bar of iron was made, McMoodyDwarf jumped off his claimed workshop (Carpenters') and grabbed the iron. He has now started making a mysterious construction.

He made a willow bed, studded with iron and encircled with bands of willow, AND became a level-16 carpenter!

So in this case the "Rock Bars" was actually metal bars, satisfied by an iron bar.

Rack'em, rack, rack'em, rock, ROCK BAR!


Sorry.
