small but anoying bug
« on: January 02, 2012, 12:40:40 pm »
for some reason I can not create a thread under bugs so I thought I would put this here.
in a food stockpile if plants are forbidden the text color changes to a light white (indicating something is still enabled for plants when it is not) instead of the gray text (indicating all items are forbidden).

I tried searching for this bug but did not see it so I hope this is fixed because although small, its still annoying.

From the description of the event, I think that your copy of Dwarf Fortress was on drugs when this happened. That's surely the only logical explanation for a human werewolf with deadly farts dying from it's own excrement after slaughtering some goblins comrades.

I have a guess, but I'm not 100% sure. If you still have prepared food on, but plants disabled, they might well store plants in that stockpile. Since plants like berries (any type), plump helmets and I believe some other plants can be eaten raw, and therefore are considered prepared meals. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I had my 'only prepared meals'-stockpile filled with plants the other day. That's what I suspect to be happening.

As to forbid a type, if you go over the type and press 'f' everything from that type is forbidden. There is no bug, as far as I know.

The best alternative to having a functional steel industry is to have a really, really, really good hospital. And a lot of coffins.

its does get forbidden the bug is the text color and the text color only, when i press "f" to forbid plants it remains a light white indicating there is something still enabled, the stock pile is drinks only prepared meals are forbidden.  forbidding any thing else causing it to go dark as expected.
