wildfire is a harmless inorganic, its inert. the dragonfire is spawned by a script that detects if wildfire ammo hits a target.

Well, if the bug recurs, I'll grab a save.

EDIT:  Secondary question, any chance of humans getting a pottery guild?  I know clay working is more a kobold thing, but it'd be nice to be able to do cool stuff with clay as humans as well.  I've always enjoyed building a nice stoneware fort, or a porcelain palace for my nobles.

EDIT2:  Well, this is strange.  Reinstalled and the merchants didn't explode this year, but several of their pack animals DID elect to come 'visit' my fortress.  I got two 'Wagon is visiting' messages.  Doubly curious because I didn't have a tavern set up yet.

[Meph]

Get kobolds potters. The kobold workshop is a pottery.

[Thuellai]

Yeah, read the full manual and got a better picture of how the merchants work.  I'll definitely be picking up some kobold buddies once I can to get some nice pottery stuff going.

Meanwhile, still no merchant explosions, but I've got a pack of merchant tuskoxes just milling around in my tavern, which is a bit weird.

Its the smartpets fix of succubi mode. It spilled over to all pets in all modes. Will be fixed next release.

I can just imagine the impact on a Pet Rock, wanting to join the revelry in the tavern but unable to move under their own power.  But if pastured there they do have have natural skill in Conversationalist

Has anyone seen this before?  I think it is because I tried to play with an extinct race of Humans.  I've never seen it before.

This topic has been raised several times through several of the threads concerning the latest update and human play, but you seem to be the first to provide a screenshot.

Meph and Boltgun have said that it has to do with the script "smartpet," which runs to check the status of demons and other intelligent "pet" creatures that should work as members of your fortress, which may not have been flagged as intelligent.  It borks some things, like sending art-hating visiting wagon-pullers to visit you for eternity (don't build slabs, windows, statues, etc.  Your visiting haulers will just destroy them).

It is supposed to be fixed in the next update.

Oh is that what that is.  I wouldn't mind so much about the visitors because it didn't really affect anything.  But all the goods from the wagons ended up being just off embark, which means I have booze, food, seeds and other random items affecting the stock screens.  Not to mention I appear to be stuck in an undead siege after wiping them out now too.

Speaking of visitors destroying things, Great Fiend Spiders and other building destroyers that are also civilized follow their building destroyer behavior of targeting slabs, statues, etc. instead of going to the tavern and partying when they visit forts. I've had to start just dfhack killing them when they arrive since they still knock stuff over, too.
