[38c] Dwarves are using... above-ground wood for their c
« on: May 06, 2008, 08:35:00 pm »

See topic title for the issue.

Shouldn't they bring above-ground wood if they use it?

Or should they rather be using tower-cap wood?

I think he's saying if you deconstruct the wagon, it turns into non-Tower Cap wood. I never noticed if it did or not, but if it does, I'd say it's not a bug. Just something that could be changed to add more "flavor".

I think he's talking about the caravan that shows up each year.

Correct.

I can K on a tile which contains a wagon tile and it'll come up with some bullshit as Saguaro wagon or Pine wagon or even Larch wagon. Never Tower-cap wagon.

Wagons (The creature) use RACEGLOSS for their wood type.
Therefore any wagon can be any wood type.
It has nothing to do with who's using it.
Not exactly a bug, but moreover a flaw in the way wagons are implemented.
