What is up with this?  I've seen them bring food to their quarters and drop it on the floor.  I make sure every quarters has at least one chest, and sometimes they'll actually put the food in the chest but usually they just drop it on the floor.  Some of these guys have three or four food sitting on their floors - I kind of thought the were storing their military provisions there while off duty, but I only have them set to carry two food, so I don't understand why that's happening.  I've looked at the food items and they're actually owned by the dwarves who put it in their quarters.  Sometimes the food is of a type that rots and stinks the place up, which makes them unhappy.  The stuff that remains is prepared food.  What's going on there?

[Quietust]

Are they in the military?

If so, are they also assigned to do mining, wood cutting, or possibly hunting? Alternatively, did you recently assign them new uniforms?

[FleshForge]

Yeah they're all apparently in the military, although none of them have those labors enabled probably some of them have at various times - I've also been modifying their uniforms from time to time as bluemetal stuff gets made.  I'm a bit concerned that they won't actually be carrying their food while they ARE on duty, I guess I should check their inventories.

[FleshForge]

Well I looked inside a lot of backpacks and they all seem to be in order, I guess that food will just sit there until the room owner happens to get out of bed and be hungry just then.

Be careful, since with those military dwarves hogging the food nobody else will be able to eat. I've lost forts that way.

[FleshForge]

Well I have about 15k food and drink each so I'm not terribly worried about that, but thanks anyhow

[FleshForge]

Oh, I see that the couple of military who had mining or woodcutting enabled are NAKED.  That's kind of bad I suppose.
