[33g] Large gems not found by dwarves
« on: December 30, 2007, 03:37:00 pm »
None of the large gems i have are found by the dwarves. When trying to bait a trap or stockpile them, the game says "Need large gems"  respectively the dwarves do not touch the gems. I have not tried selling trading the gems.

*edit/addition* the large gems can be sold, at least

-Any troubles? -Bandit Zolak is harassing our hamlet!
-Tell me about Zolak. -Zolak is dead.
-What do you think about me? -You are killer. You are also unhinged. You have perpetrated a violent attack upon Zolak.

With trapping, the "use large gems" thing doesn't work well and hasn't ever worked. It's something to be improved in the future I believe.

At any rate, it's a known bug.

large gems are randomly created when cutting rough gems. sometimes you also end up with a gem craft too.

Who would bait a trap with gems? We'd need animals that like sparkly stuff in order to do that. Or you could be trapping kobolds.

Hey, animals like raccoons and rhesus macaques that steal your stuff sure do like the shinies. :3
