[0.31.10] Minor bug with a bronze colossus statue
« on: April 03, 2010, 11:20:51 pm »

I just killed a bronze colossi in Arena with several dragons. As before, the colossus leaves a masterwork statue. However, the new descriptive naming of idols and statues seem to have not carried over to the colossus; the corpse / statue is named ☼bronze statue of a ☼. The description is similarly odd:

"This is a masterful bronze statue of a created by an unknown artisan. The item is a masterfully designed image of a in bronze."

Additionally, there is another item on the same tile as the statue: a "Bronze Colossus 1's bronze," whatever that is.

The "bronze" is in lieu of meaty chunks - Like when a dwarf is being mauled, and dwarf chunks get scattered everywhere.  Since a bronze colossus is made of bronze, however, it's bronze that's getting left around.

The other stuff makes me giggle though.

I've had this happen too. In most cases, the collusus would die and leave behind a statue of a random animal (a rat, a scorpion, etc.).
