Going by memory here.

Remove her from the squad as training orders (being attached to the squad and its current training program) or even the lack of it would precede any kind of teaching.

Is it possible that a 'FPS' issue would cause glitches rather than a crushing slow down?

I have 1000 plant; zero drink; food rotting: rock pots piling up at the craft workshop. since the problem started I have made 100 more rock pots and 30 barrels.  The food from the cook sits at the kitchen.

Things I have considered and dismissed:
1)I have not turned off all food hauling by accident because newly grown strawberries are showing up at the new 'no barrels' stockpile next to the new stills.
2) oh and glitched stills; I made 2 new ones and tore down the old
3) forbidden and/or dumped pots;nope
4) considered possibility that some stone materials not good for food (chalk might be to absorbent) but there were plenty of them in use
5) I tend not to use take from's and give to's but I checked anyway
edit- 6) no burrows in use
the kitchen doesn't kick out any spam it just piles it until it rots; but the still generates no distillible and no container messages even with an instance of each sitting within 10 tiles

My question about fps is because I DO have slowdown and since my dwarfs are not using the pots, the eggs went uncollected and I got a new crop (2 pages) of egg layers that has me looking for creative ways to lure them under a draw bridge.

Strangely, I have been without booze for a year and zero bad thoughts on it.

I have started a new embark; but since I don't know WHAT it is I wouldn't know how to avoid it in the future.

something regarding linked stockpiles?

something regarding linked stockpiles?

that falls under #5 but I can't imagine where that would be in order to effect all things that USE the pots & barrels.  near as I can tell nothing has gone into a barrel or pot in about a year

I know if you're at war with other civs, they can send a diplomat or liason to broker a peace, however, if I'm at war with the goblins, will they send a diplomat or liason to set up a peace deal?

How do you put a gear in magma without it spilling the magma into the power channel?

I'm trying to put a roller system under magma.  The rollers need magma proof material, sure.  The gear too, okay.  If I don't channel the floor out below the magma, the gear won't connect to anything above it.  If I channel it out, it can get at my wooden axels.  I don't have nethercap to make magma proof axels. Do I need to just run gears until I can get out of the magma Z?

[Sutremaine]

The gear in the magma should be able to connect to either a gear or a vertical axle on the level above, so long as the gear or vertical axle is built over empty space. It's what I do when submerging rollers in magma.

If you don't have any magma-safe material for axles, then you'll need to use magma-safe gears. That costs 4 extra power a tile, but you shouldn't need too many axle substitutes.

[Crashmaster]

Could you use the non-passable tile of a pump to power a roller assembly on top through the channeled hole?

[WanderingKid]

Ah!  Good choice Crash.  Even if they don't directly connect at least I'm only exposing one gear. 

Edit: Pump next to rollers powers the rollers, no gear necessary.

Well I don't know, that resulted in her changing to civilian clothing, and hanging out in meeting areas.
I put her in alone to a squad, without an assigned barrack, as active, that didn't seem to work either, so now she is in the squad as inactive, couldn't check if she does her job now.

Can I manually respawn extinct vermin fish in the river? Raws/DFHack, etc.?

[Telgin]

DFHack can almost certainly do it, but off hand I don't know what you would need to put in a script or the Lua interface to do it.  Try asking in the DFHack thread.

Short of that, I don't think there's any way around the fish going extinct.

If you do know of a way, let me know

Really though, I wish there was a way to get around the fish going extinct or not even being there in the first place.

[Crinkles]

When a barony becomes a county, what happens to the baron? When the monarch arrives at a duchy, what happens to the duke?

I think setting really high population numbers in raws before embarking might help. Though it's a pain to do it for every vermin fish type.
