New fort, just had the first caravan leave, it had some masterwork bone bolts on it. As soon as it left, I got the message "A masterwork of Urist McBonecarver has been lost!" New bug, or is she just really paranoid ("oh god oh god they'll ruin them those philistines MY BOLTS)?

[jester]

I know they dont do this with masterwork stone crafts and caravans now, I know it used to if you shot a masterwork bolt into something and it walked off the map.  Possibility?

[FleshForge]

Not exactly related but I had a miner who was crippled in a very unfortunate early cave-in, and after being bedridden for about a year (no hospital at that point) he roused himself and went down and carved an artifact coffin, I imagine for himself ("I told you I was sick!")

[Bryan Derksen]

On a related note, I had a bedridden mason rouse himself to make an artifact gabbro bed. I arranged for it to be placed in his room.

[FleshForge]

"I told you I was uncomfortable!"  Not quite as much a martyr as the coffin guy but on the other hand I bet that happens a lot more often in Dwarven society.

Urist McBonecarver: "Now I just made these bolts.  Don't go losing any.  They're one of my greatest works."
Urist McHunter: "Would you forgive me if I came back with more groundhog bones for you to use?"
Urist McBonecarver: "I'd hate you for all of an hour."

Yea, I don't get this one... my masterwork bolts have cuased the deaths of 5 furnace operators in the forge.  Should the firing of masterwork bolts cuase greif for the maker? I would hate to loose a legendary smith to the hammer.

Only solution seems to be: sell them before Uric Mcgoblinslayer gets them...

[Uzu Bash]

A lot of masterworked silver bolts hit magma, and I got spammed with that message. But the smith stayed ecstatic, so maybe losing their ammo is only a marginal disappointment.

[Zaerosz]

I think the lack of unhappy there is because he's probably made a lot of them. I thing the formula for art defacement unhappiness is 1000/n, where n is the number of artifacts/masterworks created by that dorf.

Also, bad nordak! No three-month necroing!

[MacMahoon]

does that formula apply to all objects or specifically to ammo or all objects? I had a glassworker make green glass cages for my cage traps for years. After he became legendary I tossed a few masterwork cages into the magma. He was pretty pissed. He didnt tantrum but was miserable for years.

[Urist Imiknorris]

All objects.
