champion backpack > live fish ... madness 40d(5)
« on: January 15, 2009, 03:32:54 am »

ok so i'm not 100% sure this is a bug or just a few flaws in logic or something, so i will explain...

i was massing live fish in a cage just for the hell of it... for a while now...
scrolling past it i notice a champion sitting on it for a while, i just figure hes picking
up one for his next meal or something... i check, he has ~30 live fish in his backpack...
i check the cage, whats left in there, he doesn't own, but then i notice he still hasn't left,
he then exchanges whats left of the live fish in the cage with the live fish in his backpack...
so now hes run off, being the owner of all the fish, because he was interrupted to 'collect provisions'

is this a bug? if so is it, that he is just getting way to many provisions?
or is he getting the fish as pets, and putting them in the backpack instead of hands?
or something else?

Does his profile say that he likes a particular kind of fish, or fish in general?

I once had a dwarf who carried a live bat around in her backpack.  Wouldn't let go of it, wouldn't let anyone train it.  Vicious little thing, but it seemed quite contented in there.  She (the dwarf) was killed, caught sleeping outside in a stream (of all places) by vengeful Goblins;  she had killed a couple of their champions, and been named an enemy, so they must have been quite pleased for a moment before the rest of my dwarves slaughtered them.  The moment she died, the little sky rat shot out of that backpack like a bat out of ...a backpack, and flew off.  True story.

from memory no, i think i checked it, but i could be wrong... i will double check later...
i will post piccys of the scenario as it stands when i get around to it...
more importantly it could be causing a crash, the putting the fish in/out of the backpack/cage/trap(s),
but i can't narrow this down, as i had so much going on... always happened when someone would place a certain
trap and/or fish in my trap/animal stockpile...

edit: no he doesn't like fish... and i left it too long so all the fish have now died...
