Cages.

Is there a way to dump things out of cages? Such as dead goblins? I can't find it on the wiki.

Look at the inventory of the cage and dump the contents?

I know how to hit "K" and look at it.... but it seems I can only dump the cage itself from there? Is there something else I can try?

I think if you have it built, then you can look at it with 'T' and see its contents and dump from there.

Right now Rampages seem to be Godzilla quietly walking into Tokyo, biting the leg off of one reporter... then creeping off again without a sound.

Okay, I haven't actually played DF in several months...but from what I remember, you have three options.
  • If built, it counts as a building.  T over it and dump the contents from the building inventory.
  • K over it, press enter when it's selected to get it's description and contents.  Dump from there.
  • Find the contents in the Stocks screen and dump from there.

Mass dumping tool works when it's built.

Hit - and + until you have the cage highlighted. Hit Enter. You are looking at the objects and creatures in the cage. Select the objects (corpses are objects) you want to dump. Easy.

Nothing in DF is easy, and no one that masters its arts is a fool.
