[38c] Dungeon Master is a slob
« on: April 02, 2008, 12:54:00 am »

World generated in 38c, no mods installed.

My dungeon master has all her required rooms (plus some, I gave her a bunch of extra chests and cabinets to try and get her to cleanup after herself), but she refuses to store any of her possessions in her room. As a result, they're spread all over the fortress.. wherever they were when she decided to claim them.

Nothing's forbidden, marked for dumping or melting, nothing in her profile about being a slob.. I can't find any reason for her to be ignoring her stuff.


Something I'm missing, or a bug?

Do you have the dungeon master working at all?  What does the dungeon master's personality say about being (dis)organized, if anything?

No one ever ever moves dropped items.  It's annoying as f*ck.

The dungeon master sometimes works, I've made her idle though and she still won't pick up her stuff.

And she never drops it either, she's never picking the stuff up. She's claimed a few items from a goblin ambush I wiped out and they're still sitting out there where they fell.. been sitting there for at least 5 years.

All the other nobles have their rooms stuffed with crap they claimed. The dungeon master just lets it sit, and nothing in her profile about being messy.

Well, i will just consider myself happy then - my DM is now wearing 8 cloaks and just collecting more. Bug or Intention? (yes, she likes cloaks) Btw, i really like her last name: Od-shit-nil  ;)

In my experience most dropped clothing is from military dwarfs when activating them and they wont pick it up while they are military, but they will -eventually- when being turned civilian. Giving them a cabinet might help, but not sure on that.

Also, my major is mandating export of bolts prohibited almost without breaks for 5 years now, but, again, she likes bolts, and only bolts, so thats not really a bug too, hm?
