Trap components not appearing at trade depot
« on: October 09, 2010, 02:55:09 pm »

I just made 10 large steel serrated discs to bump up my exported wealth, they were moved to my stockpile specifically for only trap components right next to the trade depot, but they won't show up on the list of things i can bring to the depot at all. There's no pending tasks for them, i've tried moving them back and forth between stockpiles nothing seems to work.\

Is there any way to fix this or do i nee to find another nonsensically valuable export?

Go to the All category, then scroll to where your serrated disks are?

Also, check to make sure they aren't forbidden for some reason.

They might be in bins with different labels, like "Trap Components". Instruments, crafts, toys, etc, are all in "Finshed Goods" bins, though bins with atleast one instrument are listed in the instrument menu, etc.

They are not forbidden or melt designated, not in bins, no bins are available to move them into, no bins are allowed at that stockpile, and the stockpile is literally touching the trade depot and i've scrolled down to 100 distance away from the trade depot and still not seen them.

They should be at the top of the All list. What is listed there?

It may help to search by string. Rock mechanisms don't show up in any particular list at the trade depot either.

Everything else immediately nearby, empty cages, things immediately accessable from the nearby stairwell, down a bit more and i can see the junk armor/weapon stockpile's stuff that is already past the trap components, then some ammo mixed in from the ammo stockpile next to it, more stuff downstairs, etc.

It was as it they literally did not exist. The traders are long gone now though, i'll try again when the next ones show up, which I have no idea when is since i get so many sieges(modded races) the dwarven traders only show up maybe one out of every four years years at best and the humans haven't been spotted yet.

O, and I didn't preview my post. Instead of strikethrough, the command route I meant was q > g > s > search string

Missed the human caravan due to sieges, so i turned them off to get the dwarven one, oddly the trap components reappeared, the only thing i can guess is some mandate i wasn't paying attention to had prevented it, though i really have no idea.

Yes, would have to be a mandate. Those will hide everything covered, though you can disable that filter at the risk of your haulers.
