WOLF WOMAN DANCER

I haven't seen this exact scenario, but I've seen scenarios like it with woodcutters, miners and regular dwarves trying to dress.  The culprit is usually "too many of..." or "not enough of...".  A shortage or surplus causes a problem, dwarf tries to remedy problem but creates new problem, then gets caught in a loop.

So you say 200 quires, and in another thread I suggested raising your written materials to 200.  The point was to be well above the actual number of quires in the library.  You may also have a shortage of coffers to hold 200 quires.  Try keeping your cap higher than your actual count, by 20 or so.  Also try adding more coffers.  I've counted 40 quires in a coffer once, so I know they can at least hold that, maybe even more.

Also, while this probably won't solve the root problem, by d-b-f and d-b-c the coffers with the quires in them you will clear all those TSK messages.  That should hopefully allow you to at least see what the job is before they all get spammed again.  I have a pretty strong feeling that the job is simply to cart all those quires to a finished goods stockpile where another job to cart them back is created.

Hope that helps!

I increased the desired amount and forbid then reclaimed the coffers lets hope that they write something soon. I will tell you the result once it is discovered.

Your library Writing Material (Desired) count includes all quires, written on or not.  Make sure that count is high enough to include blank quires.  I set mine at 200 or so to make sure all quires go into the library.  I don't know how many quires a coffer can contain, but I've seen it as high as 40.

Also, a written on quire may be carried around by a dwarf or laying around your fortress, still counting against your desired target.  This might explain empty coffers.

This worked thank you

I have that chest and bags yet they are empty. Im just confused now

I have a ton of a quires in my stocks but they are not in the library. I cannot find the stockpile they are in and i do not understand how to fix it. Can anyone help?

Its capital P it happened recently in my game but dos anyone know about mercenaries?

I figured it out i just took out the 42.02 version and added the 42.06 instead of making a new one

This is a log i found can anyone help me with trying to set it up with mac. I saw the changes you re supposed to make and i inserted the txt file into the OSX in share but this happened.
