the last two fortresses i've started (same world map) i've had the problem of missing startup items.  i chose to start with 80 barrels of booze and over 30 barrels of meat and turtle.  when i arrive the status page lists all the goodies properly.  however, when i set up a food stockpile (just inside the front door, so they won't get lost) and the dwarves carry everything inside i see only about a dozen barrels of food and drink.  did the sob's stash the rest while i wasn't looking or is there a problem with my map file that repeats whenever i start a new fortress?

I saw the same thing on my last fortress. I think Toady changed it so you no longer get one barrel for each drink.

Yeah, I think it's five/barrel now.  You can still order different types of beverages, but there's less of a free lunch factor now.

oh, good.  i was sure there was a problem for a moment as i tried a new map and the same thing happened.  so long as i know the stuff is there i don't have a problem with less barrels to start with as they usually just clutter up the place.
