Wonderful world of cat products
« on: May 10, 2010, 04:20:13 pm »

I've recently noticed migrants coming in with cat tissue gloves, cat tissue caps... I was able to trade for a cat tissue chest, and I just recently became the proud owner of a barrel of "cat n/a", with a stack of 10 "cat n/a"s.

I agree that cats are non-applicable, but what's more fun than a barrel full of cat n/as?  To top it off, it was a fungiwood barrel, so it was a barrel of cat n/a fun, with the giwood cut off.  Very amusing.

I'd include a delightful image if the "insert mage"button did more than display tags for html... how exactly do I upload a picture, there appears to be no obvious button (maybe my desire to share is n/a?)

That's definitely a bug.  Do you happen to be running DF via Wine?

You can't upload pictures directly here.  Upload the picture to Tinypic, then find the part under "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards", and copy-paste that into your post.

Huh.  Been doing any modding?  Is it only cats, or have you noticed this with other creatures' materials as well?

I've seen this happen when I removed blood from a creature. What you're seeing was probably once a barrel of cat blood (traders love blood in this version) but now it is simply n/a as the game is referencing something that no longer exists.

Alternatively, see if it's still n/a once you save and reload.  Sometimes there's material bugs that go away on reload.

On the other hand, my RL butcher shop has been known to sell "beef miscellaneous" sometimes.

The only modding I did was to enable cartilage to be shells... which worked for the first time (it worked after the last mood, where when I made the mod when the dwarf was in the mood, it didn't seem to take effect for him).

The cat kidney tissue items came up before the mod, though.  Always cat kidney tissues for things (clothes and chests so far!).  And, a barrel of cat n/a fun(giwood).
