Steel Bolts (25) weigh more than a door
« on: November 28, 2007, 01:07:00 am »
The trader is offering me 25 steel bolts, which apparently weigh 586 units of weight.

That's why they're unable to take all these 26-weight scepters and crowns! The dummies loaded up with depleted uranium bolts!

Anyway, I don't think a pack of bolts (which my marksdwarf would be carrying around if I bought them) should weigh so much.

I noticed this back on 33a also and thought it was a known bug so I never followed up on it. The same goes for arrows, in that stacks of 25 tend to weigh more than a suit of a chainmail when carried around. I figure that the normal weight of a single stack is probably being applied to all 25 bolts or something along those lines.

The same thing can possibly be said for price also, as well made arrows and bolts tend to sell for enormous amounts of money.

A single human caravan? A stack of normal bolts made from an elefant or any other large creature exeptionally studded with platinum can buy out a kingdom!
A human caravan once brought a stack of 25 normal iron bolts decorated with superior sapphires. They wanted 77 000 for it.
