"Owned" food rotting again and again and again
« on: January 30, 2007, 02:50:00 pm »

"Dwarf cancels eat: taken by mood". Said dwarf abandons his *dwarven syrup roast* on the table and goes off to work on his artifact... and his roast rots. OK. Then the rotten roast rots once more... and stays there. And it rots again. And again. And again. And apparently it won't deteriorate completely, nor will anyone take it to a refuse pile, until it's "unclaimed". All the while, the walls in the dining hall are turning purple with so much miasma.

EDIT: ok, so apparently it finally deteriorated away when I wasn't looking. scratch that one.

was it a stack of roasts? perhaps each serving of the roast rotted away one by one?

no, just one roast on top of a table. the fellow entered a strange mood in the middle of a meal. these are some quality roasts, y'know, and dirt cheap too, by the way, when you make thousands of them.

I don't understand what you mean by "rots again".  It can send off a lot of miasma clouds before it goes away.

oops. my fault, then. for some reason I believed a rotten item would only cause one more miasma cloud and then rot away completely (or, at least, the miasma-causing parts of it).
