Hey guys, minor issue. I'm having a problem where my dwarves won't dump things that die on my sawblade traps. Or rather, to be more specific, they will not gather the corpses. This leads to clogged traps. They are not forbidden. They will neither dump them when marked, nor move them to the corpse/refuse stockpile. I had to move them by dfhacking a torrent of water into them, at which point they were dumped. Anything I can do to avoid this?

[draeath]

Are the traps in an area considered "outside?" If so you may have the policy set to prohibit gathering of refuse outside.

[Dunamisdeos]

Oh. Well I'll try that next time. But would that prevent them from collecting things that have been [d][d] designated as for dumping? I thought that overrode it.

::EDIT::
One more thing. Is there a best way to find Blood of Armok? I've got about a dozen bones and half as many tears. No blood yet, seems odd. I can understand why it's rare, but I was hoping to have found some by now.

I think it depends on your embarking location. For me it tends to be on the surface layers of dirt, clay and peat (mostly three first layers). To see you can use dfhack: reveal (to uncover the map) unreveal (to undo), prospect (to see if you have any at all)

Oh no I don't have any at all

Can you trade for them in caravans? It makes me sad that I won't get to try out spawning magma and such in my fort.

You can buy Blood of Armok from Teduk's Fine Goods, for a mere 25,000 shiny gold circles.

Which is in fact pretty easy to get if you just brute force the basic prayer reaction for soft metal with a good number of dwarves.

This may apply to more than just dwarves, but several reactions refer to "kuckle" dusters rather than knuckle dusters.

However, this is purely cosmetic as it is only the item names that are referred to as such, the actual tags all refer to knuckle dusters. Nothing is broken.

In my browsing, reactions to make gem/glass (all three)/rock, copper/bronze (cold forging), and volcanic (magma forge) refer to kuckle.

thanks, I fixed it.

[Niveras]

Now question, is there a renewable means of acquiring rock crystal for crystal glass (other than trading/market), or alternative methods of making crystal glass?

[Baffler]

Minor issue. I've been shearing leatherwing bats but not getting any product out of it. Has anyone else had this problem, or am I just not waiting long enough before shearing?

Nevermind, the guy doing the shearing also happened to be the tanner, and processed them without me noticing.

Oh no I don't have any at all

Note, "prospect" only counts what you've already revealed.  "prospect all" includes gems & ores that are still unrevealed.

While we're at it, I'm not looking at it now, but between Rune Weaponries/Armories one of them is misspelled ruen.

Yup, I did prospect all. I do have multiple biomes on the map, will it only prospect the biome in which the cursor lies? Frankly though, If I can just buy them from the shop there then I'm happy. Got more gold on this map than I know what to do with.

Can plump helmet men haul?

Can plump helmet men haul?

Probably not. They aren't proper citizens, so they shouldn't be able to do most jobs.
