moody dwarf is a d***
« on: May 02, 2011, 06:55:45 am »

My moody dwarf just wants raw and cut gems and some logs. I have raw green glass cut green glas and all the logs in the world. What more does he want!? Why isnt he taking any of it!?

He might want clear glass...or a regular type of gem.  Either that or you don't have enough for the artifact.  Beyond that, no idea.

Do you always look at it in ASCII?

You get used to it, I don't even see the ASCII.  All I see is blacksmith, miner, goblin.

Does he want "raw... green..." or "rough... color"? If it's the latter he won't take raw green glass, he MUST have an actual rough gem. You would need to find and dig one out.

it was a fey mood. It turns out that raw green glass is not considered a gem.

Wow. And he made a crossbow. YAY!  8)

Wait until your moody weaponsmiths start churning out Adamantine Crossbow artifacts, then lets see about the "YAY" -part  ::)

... Would adamantine artifact xbows really be any better than any other material artifact xbow? I'd think adamantine would actually be a terrible choice for xbows, since you want them nice and heavy in case your marksdwarves need to wield them like hammers.

EDIT: Oh... you were being sarcastic.

I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
I just hope he dies the same death that all dwarfs deserve: liver disease.

Back in 40d, I manipulated a dwarf into making an elf leather harp (said leather was tanned from an elf skin retrieved from HFS).

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

At least adamantine crossbows are a nice status symbol. You know what sucks? Adamantine capes. Some dwarf wastes all this adamantine on an artifact only to reveal a tacky blue cape, presumably so he can run around pretending to be super dwarf.
