Specify bones for a stockpile
« on: September 10, 2010, 08:28:19 pm »

Is there a way to do this?

I tried specifying a stockpile for body parts only and a stockpile for corpses and item types(seems to be everything?), and nobody moves anything to the body parts stockpile at all.

go to standing (o)rders and set corpses/other to dump (unless you want to keep them)

that is the only way of managing refuse i have found...

I have not had problems with custom bone stockpiles. Is the butcher's shop outside? If so, you may need to turn on "Dwarves gather refuse from outside". A body parts only stockpile should net you bones, random severed body parts, and an assortment of useless refuse like nervous tissue that you need to periodically clean out of your stockpile.

Also, this thread should be in the Gameplay Questions section of the forums. Should be a button somewhere to let you move it, I believe.
