Crutches work since .22

Ah, thanks.

Now I just need to figure out why noone is giving the poor guy one.

[BlueeulB]

Starving migrants to death without them getting into my fort will not affect any Dwarves within my fort, will it? Not too fun of a tantrum spiral.

[FuzzyZergling]

No, since your dwarves aren't friends with them they won't be affected by their deaths.
They might be killed by angry ghosts, though.

No, your dwarfs will be okay.
But, don't forget how dwarfs are thoughs. They can hunt vermin and drink water from pools and rivers. Living near the insanity, in the front of yours doors. Any dwarf who go outside can be attacked (or, starting a conversation and becoming friend.)

Migrants are more feared than goblins...

They can hunt vermin and drink water from pools and rivers.

If the zone preference for drinking (water source) is set to zone-only then they should ignore the pools and rivers, as long as you don't have a zone they can access.

Why do tasked refuse items (Like a single kitten skull or a single bone) clutter up my workshops when they're the only items present in the workshop

Fixed. I have a refuse pile for random items, one for fresh hides, one for bones/hooves/etc, one for skulls, one for hair/wool, and one for corpses.

Its a bug

Is there any difference in value between clothes made from yarn from different animals? Or pigtail/rope reed thread? I can't find the info on the wiki.

I believe that yarn from some animals is worth more, like meat, leather, and bones.
I could be wrong.

Far as I'm aware, aside from trolls, hair can't be weaved into cloth. Otherwise, thread non-dyed, it looks like cave spider silk and yarn are valued the same , and pigtail and rope reed thread are the same. Also looks like the same pattern with cloth as well.

This can be caused by workshops being outdoors.  If your dwarves are set to not pick up refuse from outdoors, and you have a butchering shop next to a farm growing outdoor crops...

I've made this mistake a time or two.

Putting a floor over the top to block out the sun doesn't make the area "underground" again.  Dwarves won't pick up certain items from the butchery until you move it underground, or set the defults to have the dwarves collect pretty much everything on the map that they are allowed to get to with their burrow assignments.

I think there is a difference between missing one leg and crutching around, and missing two legs.  I have a legendary axedwarf who had the nerves severed in both his legs.  He still technically has them, but he crawls to sparring sessions, despite the pimp hospital I got going on.  Aside from that case, crutches have worked great the current releases.

Check that you have tables and coffers/bags in the hospital. And then craft a few new crutches.

I guess he has healed as far as he can, and is now in "crawl around mode".

(oops, double post. I blame sleepyheadedness.)

Errr, if you can't stand at all, crutches are not much good for you in RL, if Toady has actually made it so in DF, thats kindof cool

Guess we need wheelchairs next...

[shadenight123]

magma powered wheelchairs. they should have mechanism, corkscrews and be made of metal of any kind, and a legendary wheelchairer could fight just as well as a normal soldier. the only prblem would be the need to fill them through stations filled with magma that if destroyed by building destroyers would unleashs magma hells in the form of fire tornadoes...
