My fey mood dwarf (usually a farmer with no crafting skills) took a craftsdwarf workshop, grabbed 2 stacks of bones (notably 6 wombat bones first and 24 Giant Kea bones second), and now just sits at the workshop. Requests are two metal bars (dwarf's favorite is silver, and we have silver), one rock blocks (we have an excess of), logs (tons and tons), and bones (which we both have an excess of AND two stacks are tasked in the workshop).

Not sure what to do.

EDITTED: The only thing I can think of is perhaps the dwarf wanted to use a lead bar earlier but ti was used in the production of some lead buckets before being grabbed. Gonna try and smelt some galena to see - dwarf isn't taking the silver or gold bars.

SECOND EDIT: Wasn't paying attention and dwarf started construction, after having grabbed ANOTHER stack of bones, a log, one of the blocks I already had, I think, and a bar of aluminum I bought from a caravan. Not sure what happened.

Decided to Create Large Region instead of a Large Island. DF decided to have trouble placing lakes/minerals and caves. Resolved itself after a while, 28 rejects overall but usually chose to restart during lakes/minerals or caves stages instead of instantly like most.

I have not even found adamantine, nor do I know if it's even on this map.



Funny. But curious. I haven't made any adamantine, how is this possible?

Hmmm... if my schedual were flexible enough, that might actually be a good thing considering that I have a lot of nightmares. xD
But yeah, not letting your subconcious present itself is a pretty bad idea.


PERHAPS WE CAN INTEGRATE THIS SLEEPING PATTERN AND RESULTING INSANITY TO DWARVES?

I want this so bad. Considering selling artwork so I can donate. Go Toady Go!


Also, polyphasic sleeping is known to drive people crazy for unknown reasons, however they tend to be undocumenteed (a case of unreliable narrator, in that they don't realize that it's driving them nuts.)

Is there any way to undo it? I wanna find my magma pipe so I can start my glassmaking but I'm really really tired of exploratory mining, and I don't like the look of the map after being revealed, plus I like finding my minerals/gems on my own. (selective cheating, I know.)
So, after I use reveal, is there any way to unreveal it?

Put the whiny immigrant and the badass woodcrafter together in a nice minifortress deep underground. Preferably, make it so it has no ceiling; just a pit leading up to the regular fortress so your dwarves can watch. It'll be the first dwarven sitcom.

I lol'd.

Also, cool story bro.

Oh, I get it now. Thanks. I didn't know there was a mass dumping option. Sorry for being so dense.
