[0.31.01] Dwarves stealing from Merchants
« on: April 02, 2010, 06:53:18 am »
Just now I went to look at my trade depot, waiting for my dwarves to transport crafts to it. I noticed my chief medical dwarf walk into it and walk out carrying something.. Upon further inspection I noticed he was hauling some of the merchants' midnight blue cloth over to my hospital zone. Yep, he just stole dyed silk and even put it in the chest! I never thought I'd see the day when dwarves stole or put things in containers, but I'm pretty sure the stealing part is a bug.

I also just saw this. When the first caravan arrived after constructing my hospital all my dwarves with item hauling on ran out and stole the merchant's cloth, taking it to the hospital. The merchants hadn't even unloaded yet.

I can confirm this. My Dwarves practically plundered the first caravan I got.

I just encountered this also. Practically half of my dwarves dropped their drink/food/break and went off to tear some cloth out of the hands of the merchants. I think one of the merchants was actually trying to run away from a dwarf at some point there...

Right now Rampages seem to be Godzilla quietly walking into Tokyo, biting the leg off of one reporter... then creeping off again without a sound.

It's not just Dwarves stocking hospitals. My military loves looting the elves of their wooden crap whenever they arrive.

Maybe this is related to the feature that allows starving dwarves to take food from caravans?

Or a bug where they don't recognize other's ownership of stuff that comes into the fort.

Ofcourse dwarves barely even recognize other dwarves ownership and sleep where ever they want.  :D

It's a funny thought to think that a king went into his room and someone he doesn't even know is sleeping on his bed.
