What does it mean if one of your dwarves is blinking (like bright color, normal, bright, normal...)?

[Daveorock]

Nvm, I found it under status icon in the wiki, apparently (I checked) he is a legendary miner  .

if I chanel (1 wide) a brook will it completely drain?
I don't want it to I just want a source of water thats renewable.

[Acperience]

channeling the surface of the brook makes it like a stream, so creatures and objects can fall in and wet.

so i'm still on the goblin transferring from before, honestly. for some reason ordering all the gobbos and trolls into a single cage has my dwarves swapping the cages out for different cages and placing the gobbo-occupied cage in the stockpile. ./annoy.

what happen? and how fix?

[SurfinShroom]

thanks
what relevence does [MOUNT_EXOTIC] have? Since dungeon masters are broken I'm changing all the [PET_EXOTIC] to [PET] but what about [MOUNT_EXOTIC]?
Do I need to delete it? what difference does it make? :S

how on earth did i manage that? i did the same thing i've always done to order different things into cages - assign them to the cage.

[MOUNT_EXOTIC] simply seems to mean that civilizations which have access to exotic animals (such as the elves) will come riding that animal when they siege you.  Thus, elves riding unicorns in sieges.  It makes no difference to how you can use the animal, since you can't use mounts anyway.

There is a massive difference between Cage traps and Buildable cages

i believe i have, as all the gobbos i have ordered into the single cage have been in built cages. i'm stuck, not stupid.

What is happening is that when you order a creature in constructed cage A to be placed in constructed cage B, your dwarves split this up into two jobs:  Remove creature from cage A, place creature in cage B.  They aren't smart enough to just move the creature from one cage to another.  Now your dwarves will never intentionally just release a goblin from a cage, so when it comes time to remove them from the first cage they'll grab an empty cage from a stockpile and put the goblin in that first, then place the goblin-occupied cage on an animal stockpile.  Some time later they'll take the goblin-occupied loose cage and carry it to cage B to transfer the goblin to it.  So if you want to put all your goblins in one cage, don't bother building the cages they're already in.  Just build the destination cage, and have all the goblins in cages in an animal stockpile nearby.

Help me with butcheringgg!

Step 1: military kills elephant
Step 2: Go to butcher's shop, give butcher dead animal order
Step 3: URIST McButcher cancels butcher animal, needs butcher-able unrotten nearby item

why do i get that? is it the proximity to the corpses (because they are outside with my shop obviously inside)? or do the corpses instantly rot? help please!

[Sphalerite]

The elephant corpse needs to be in a refuse stockpile near the butcher's shop.  Make a refuse pile that accepts corpses near your butcher's shop.  Then, turn on gathering of refuse from outside:  press 'o', 'r', 'o'.
