Discussing possible bug.
« on: March 13, 2011, 12:32:16 am »

Playing .21 i was making some earthenware items, glazing them, and so on. i got some remarkably useless milk quartzite so i decided to use burrows to force the encrusting of my junk trade good. i haven't done many yet but a earthenware ring now seem to be actually MADE form milk quartzite.

Has anyone attempted to use a loyalty cascade to play a hermit fortress?

I think gems have a small chance of being turned into a craft made of that gem when being engraved.

Sometimes, rough gems will be cut into crafts or large gems. The chance of creating a "large gem" or craft is roughly 1 in 3, the skill of a gem cutter does not affect this number at all,
Yep, that's how it works.
