Empty demand
« on: November 02, 2007, 03:50:00 pm »
Okay, I couldn't find any threads about this yet. A really simple (to explain) bug; my Captain of the Guard made an "empty" demand.

Are any of those holdings in the bedroom?  Any extra furniture in the bedroom?  I don't remember specifically, but I think occasionally they just make demands to get extra stuff in the bedroom, not caring what it is.  I'm not sure it works though, which is why I ask about the bedroom furnishing.

His chest and cabinet are in the bedroom. I tried putting an extra weapon rack there, but it didn't help. I guess I should've tried it with other stuff too. He forgot his demand some time later, so it's too late for that now

he probably wanted an item of some specific material. I remember getting demands like "brass item in bedroom" in the old version.

I wonder if it would be fillable if you managed to guess the mystery material, or if it was an unfillable demand for a <null> material item caused by an array glitch or something.

I've had this happen with my sheriff as well. I suspect he may want a peat item, since that is one of the things that he likes.
