Is it possible to stockpile cut rock stones?
« on: June 28, 2012, 04:06:23 am »

Is it possible to stockpile cut rock stones? At a jewellery workshop, a gem cutter can cut stones such as mica or basalt into "rock gems". But how do you stockpile these gems? I can't figure that out.

I want to stockpile them so that I can link the gem setter's workshop to a masterwork furniture stockpile, so that the setter can encrust top quality furniture. Currently the setters seem to prefer to encrust barrels and sand bags, but I'd like them to encrust beds, doors, chairs, and stuff like that.

they are 'gems', so my wild guess is a gem stockpile

Well of course I thought of that. Go and look at what can go in a cut gem stockpile, you'll see it's all real gems, not cut rock "gems".

good point. Have you actually already tried it?

perhaps setting finished goods on, then everything off except for the stone/clay materials

unfortunately, the only fort where I could try it isn't in a position to do so

But they aren't finished goods, they are cut gems. I think the gem stockpile settings needs a new line for "Cut Stone".
