Milking/Milling: Seriously, I checked.

I think the issue here is a typo in the reaction name (in red, above)

[Fairin]

one day i will teach myself how to mod and make it easier to point it out like that... my autism is currently focusing on geneforge / avernum atm -.- and seems to ignore my desire to play dwarf fortress.

[Meph]

Ah, lol. I double checked all the tags, and though: They are all correct. Didnt occur to me to check the name. ^^ Yeah, in fact the milking training trains milking, but is called milling. Thats from a modders point of view. 

A player will only see "train milling" ingame, and get milking. 

Even better, its not even a mistake, I didnt write "milling" in there, its just a typo. The "milking" is just missing the 'k'. ^^

meph, this is the 8th or so embark i've had (as warlocks) through 5.0 to 5.05 that hasnt seen any tears of armok (via prospect all) i don't remember them being this rare, tons of blood/metal . no tears =( its making me sad i liked my underground wells =)

[Meph]

I didnt change anything on them. Its random.

Flare: Two bonesaws? Sure? Not "bonesaw" and "saw blade" ? Yes, you can make a saw blade from bone, creating a "bone saw blade", but thats not the same as a "bonesaw".

Where, in which workshop, do I make the bonesaw that's required for the morgue workshop?

Try the smiths forge.
Also, meph, I didn't mean tantrums, I meant invaders converted into ghouls were still hostile to my fort, and attacked my warlocks.

I feel so stupid.

[Fairin]

Embarked, started with 8 skeles 1 witch 1 ghoul and 2 prisoners, built an execution chamber (yay wooden spikes) turned 2 prisoners into 4 ghouls and 8 skeletons.. decided to feed them to continue to grow my army... muahahaha... execution chamber isn't killing prisoners for some reason but is generating ghouls and skeles.

[Meph]

What? They should die, and spawn a skeleton.

But anyway, when I do the Warlock update, the prisoners will be used differently, and all that spawning/torture stuff will use tools, not the live prisoners. They are only for breeding and butchering. Although I think that they currently do starve (?)

[Fairin]

i just got one to die, left a mangled corpse, the others will starve if you leave them on the chopping block too long, but i literately made 2 ghouls (all i wanted) and about 22 skeletons from 4 prisoners (gnome / dwarf / goblin children)... but anyway.. more interested in the next update =)

[Corundum]

After I executed some prisoners to make ghouls, they went crazy soon after because they weren't clothed. I had the clothes for them to wear, and maybe they would have used them eventually, but it didn't take very long before I had one get melancholy, one throw a tantrum and another one go stark raving mad and had to be killed.

Has anyone else experienced this?

[Fairin]

yes, its normal behavior for undead raving ghouls -.- first thing i set up is a cloth industury to keep my skeletons parts covered so the ghouls can get some clothing...

sigh i demand naked warlock forts! hehe... =)

[palu]

I think yu can just put all the skeletons in a squad with armor set to "replace clothing" and they won't wear any clothes

[Meph]

Boltgun actually has a script for this, maybe I can use it to clear all bad thoughts... the problem is that it would probably affect not only ghouls, but also Warlocks.
