Initial cost of flour and sugar inflated, is it a bug?
« on: November 17, 2006, 09:06:00 pm »
On my latest attempt I noticed that dwarven flour and dwarven sugar now cost 20 points each.  I'm pretty sure that they used to cost 2 each.  I'm just not sure if it is a bug or a deliberate change.  20 does seem out of whack compared to other foods.  Plump helmets are 4 (and include a plump helmet spawn) and most meats are between 2 and 6.

This is a fix for a bug, actually.  It used to use the wrong value, the value of the fresh plant.  Now, sure, it's very high.  But it also takes more work to produce those things than it does to make, say, a rock toy worth 10.  It'll take a while for values to make sense.  Like weights, and storage numbers, there is a place-holder quality to most of them.

Good to know, I thought it might be something like that but wanted to check.
