Ammo Issues
« on: October 09, 2010, 01:21:03 am »

My fort is currently being ambushed by a bunch of elves, unprepared I quickly draft my legendary hunter Crossbowman
Previous i had no bolts, so i have my craftsdwarves craft 5 groups of bone bolts
yet he does not pick up ammo, and the ammo is sitting in my stockpile
I unassigned all my ammo from the hunters, Assigned the ammo to his group,
and yet he still sits there, I have tried changing his alert level and he ignores it still i can station him places but he still just sits there
I have tried it with other dwarves and the problem persists,
I'm currently playing the newest version

EDIT: I finally get him to do something, I told him to head off a crazed metal smith hoping that his metal crossbow would be enough of a club to kill him cus Armok knows he wont grab ammo, at this point to throws away his clothing, his iron crossbow and quiver goes and grabs a bone crossbow and proceeds to get mauled by my angry metal smith

EDIT EDIT: Looks like this solved itself somehow when i was away from the game one of my guys to pick up ammo and the works, maybe its because i didn't have a barracks at the time still dont know why my first hunter ditched his iron crossbow though, considering he was "attached" to it
