Noob question: under which stockpile section are the souls?

[Meph]

None, souls cannot be stockpiled.

Hola,

I'm running 5.09 on my linux distro, and everything seems to be fine, which is fantastic.

However, i noticed today starting up my fortress, dfhack has a lot of lines about civs such as:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

ERROR- civilization KOBOLD_CAMP has creature HONEY BADGER, GIANT     FEMALE
...
ERROR- civilization EVIL has creature TROLL     MALE
...
ERROR- civilization DROW has creature RHENAYAS_DROW_SPIDER_GIANT    MALE

And a whole slew of others, for pretty much the bulk of civilizations available. Is this... bad?  Like, is it game breaking, or something that's not really too much of an issue.

Withered ones go into the refuse pile, which can be useful for prioritization.

I get those too.  I guess I should have reported them at some point, but they didn't seem to be causing any obvious problems.

I thought they were just errors because the civs already have those pets naturally and it was trying to add them manually because they are the guaranteed pets of that civ. Or something along those lines.

That makes sense to me. I'm not even sure I've seen those messages when I first started this fortress. Doesn't seem to be anything to cause worry

[Meph]

Its harmless. its just that they get added as pets, and again added as pull animals.

Hmm...  In my latest embark I couldn't plant ironbark or steeloak.  There was some growing wild at the site, so it shouldn't be a biome issue (tropical swamp/forest).  My civilization was lacking in stuff (I'm guessing it is almost dead), does that drive what I can plant?  I had to buy the acorns from the elves.  Would harvesting the local flora help?

Your civilization shouldn't affect the ability to farm trees provided that you have seeds (I assume you are using farms for that). So no need to harvest local flora just make sure your farm has sunlight since ironbark and steeloak cant grow in bellow ground. If still nothing I assume it's a bug ?

how to use embark command in dfhack?

There is a vanilla bug that makes seeds unplantable until you have also acquired an adult plant of the same species (or possibly a product made from such a plant).  I'm not sure how this affects the Masterwork tree-sapling-plants.

Ah, here it is: bug #4549.

Solution to bug: Use hackwish to spawn ironbark/steeloak saplings. Then dump them in a river/magma.

[arbarbonif]

There were some growing, luckily I was able to get both a steeloak and ironbark version.  So that works.  Thanks.
