No more kitten mittens?
« on: July 13, 2010, 05:53:12 am »

I just slaugtered and butchered my fortress' first kitten..
To my surprise, it gave only a kitten skull..
No meat, no other bones, no hide..  no nothing..

I didn't do any modding to the game (31.10)

No fat..

Also, I notice, that in the kitchen, there no longer is an option to 'render fat'

Has this task been moved to another workshop? How do I get tallow now, for soap?

I've noticed the same myself...

As for the fat, I believe the option appears only when there is fat to be rendered.

The butchering system doesn't drop an item if the size would be below a certain level, and kittens are too small to drop usable meat or skins.  No more kitten tallow biscuits, sadly.

'render fat'  will automatically appear at the kitchen when you have fat to render.

I have a related problem, I don't want "pelican leather" and "swan leather" in my worlds so I put
[REMOVE_MATERIAL:SKIN]   [REMOVE_MATERIAL:LEATHER]
on the creatures that have inferior or too small leather. Horse and cow leather I made more expensive.

BTW, if you only remove the leather material, you get X skin chests and X skin flasks.

Wouldn't that result in a bizarre, skinless creature? Would it even have feathers? I'm kind of frightened by this.

Noticed that as well. Sometimes a cat gives meat, bones, fat, etc. but most of the time cats, even full grown ones, only give a skull and nothing else.

I think Scamps is beginning to take control of Toady's mind.
We must stop Scamps! Soon, it will be too late!

Scamps? Those annoying, fireball throwing critters from Elder Scrolls?
