So it seems that rock altars can be constructed both from the masons workshop and the craftsdwarfs workshop (seems like a bug) while only using the rock crafting skill. However for the wooden altar it only uses the carpenter skill and workshop. Now that i look at the other recent furniture (pedestals, book cases etc.) the same inconsistency exists. Carpenters make wooden pedestals while stone crafters not masons make rock pedestals. Can someone explain to me why the carpenter makes pedestals not the woodcrafter?

I've been compiling a list of my dwarves' believes and the civilization that these Gods belong to and it seems that the dwarves have an equal chance of believing in Gods of other civilizations as in yours. So basically that means that if you wanted a shrine to each God of your civilization, you first need to figure out your civilization's Gods.

So I caught some wild animals into cages. I don't feel like taming them yet. Is there a way for me to throw all of them into one cage or just butcher them without training them?

I've been doing some more adventuring recently, especially exploring a lot of underground structures, and I have to say, the procedurally generated one tile mazes in fortresses and dungeons lead to way more beautiful designs than an average player fortress and a big reason for that are indeed the one tile complicated hallways. So, I'm wondering. Can this aesthetic be efficiently be brought over to fortress mode? Can dwarves manage trafficking in 1 tile corridors and 1 tile stairways? Obviously the hallways do get wider in main areas, but more remote parts like bedrooms are accessed by 1 tile corridors.

So, I think this is the first time this problem arised. I made sure the bins with crafts aren't being currently used (no "tsk" when viewed with "k"), but the finished good bins with older crafts don't show up at all in the "bring to depot" screen. Only totems.
Edit:
Fucking mayor. I think I know the reason. If figurines are banned from export every bin containing a figurine will be banned. Right? Fuck. Someone needs to pull a lever.

As the days in our desert fortress pass by, finally in spring I suddenly hear something happening outside, a great comotion. "She's here! Run!" Someone shouts. I stop working on a limonite door to go check what is the reason for this disturbance and see the most hideous creature.

Is it just me or there are less vampires coming to your fort? A year ago, I'd have at least one vampire in a 100 dwarf fortress, but I haven't seen any in the newer version.

What are your thoughts on playing around with migrant cap? It's definitely easier to manage if you only have ~60 dwarves, but at the same time it feels kind of like cheating.
