I am surprised about price of prepared meals: 2000 -6000. Is it legal? You can product nothing but food and purchase easily entire caravans. Mb devide price by 10 for balance?

Food worth 2 - 6K?  What’s the deal, your cooks making vermin tallow biscuits?     

We haven’t made it to a million yet but are getting close:

Disclaimer:
We keep enough legendary roasts around to have everyone deliriously happy (or in this case, 'merely' exceptional) but the rest are hauled under a smashing bridge to help with FPS.  It’s kind of a shame to lose the gems on the pots, though, an empty pot can be worth 40K+ on its own.  Even so, by the time legendary cooks in a mature fortress are making six-figure roasts, even decent weapon smiths are making trap components worth hundreds of thousands each and from Textiles, a legendary clothier using even homegrown silk masterfully woven, dyed, studded and encrusted can produce a single shoe that’s worth 50K even after it’s worn out.  Meph would have to nerf back pretty much everything ...

bronze?  How do I make it?

I see that I have a metallurgist mod on and it kills a lot of the bronze reactions...  Am I unable to make bronze armor any longer?  I used to specifically use bronze for armor.  It appears to even make a Metallurgist smelter, I need to have 2 iron cauldrons...

[Meph]

Bronze is copper+tin. Finishing forge or metallurgist.

[GhostDwemer]

More efficient bronze production is done at the crucible. Regular smelters are just for smelting ore in Masterwork, not making alloys. You'll probably need to make a metallurgist first, to make steel because it takes steel cauldrons to make a crucible.

Okay I was playing around trying to make a grand library... I built a scriptorium and got all the goods together to make books... my dwarves kept canceling saying I had no quires.... I made a ton of quires tried again... they drug some 20+ quires to the scriptorium for one book.  This does not appear to be the intended requirements.... so I was looking in the raws:

[REACTION:SCRIBE_BOOK_WARFARE_1]
[NAME:Write "Stick them with the pointy end"]
[BUILDING:SCRIPTORIUM:CUSTOM_A]
[REAGENT:ink:1:LIQUID_MISC:NONE:INORGANIC:INK][DOES_NOT_DETERMINE_PRODUCT_AMOUNT]
[REAGENT:quire:1:TOOL:ITEM_TOOL_QUIRE:NONE:NONE]
[REAGENT:ink pot:1:NONE:NONE:NONE:NONE][CONTAINS:ink][PRESERVE_REAGENT][DOES_NOT_DETERMINE_PRODUCT_AMOUNT][REAGENT:quire:1:TOOL:ITEM_TOOL_QUIRE:NONE:NONE]
[REAGENT:thread:15000:THREAD:NONE:NONE:NONE][NOT_WEB]
[REAGENT:binding:1:TOOL:ITEM_TOOL_BOOK_BINDING:NONE:NONE]
[PRODUCT:100:1:TOOL:ITEM_TOOL_BOOK_WARFARE_1:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:quire:NONE]
[SKILL:WRITING]

rearranged a little bit to make it easier to read... I don't see what in here that is causing it TSK 20+ quires.  although I do see it requiring 2 separate quires... could this be causing the issue in question?

Another oddity in the creature_civ_dwarf.txt file

YESGUILDHALL[CASTE_PROFESSION_NAME:STONECRAFTER:*Stonecrafter & Potter*:*Stonecrafters & Potter*]

not sure why?  I was guilding up for the first time and rearranging my group when I noticed the title pop up and was confused...  Pottery is not in the stack of skills for mason's guild.

I cleaned up the earlier problem with the quires by removing 1 of the quire requests and doubling the other.  Suddenly the multiple quires disappeared, still had to run them through the job manager, because setting the job at the workshop would have random books missing from job cancelations.

[blapnk]

I think that's a holdover from a previous version of masterwork where stonecrafting and pottery were merged under the same skill, so that the old pottery skill could be renamed and used for something else.

You are goddamn right!

Thanks for the reports, thats an easy thing to fix.

after 1,5 years my military dwarfs suddenly start to kill each other. Mb bug with sparring?

I had this problem too, two games in a row actually.  Not sure exactly what happened but suddenly random dwarves would go 'berserk' and no longer show up as in my civ.  Happiness would be fine beforehand and everything... was really strange.

Happened once to me... check your food.  Mossrova meat can cause hallucinations, berserk, etc.   There is another, but primarily Mossrova is horrendous to a base

You are 100% right, I had some mossrova I'd butchered for some food.  DF continues to provide interesting -fun- that I rarely expect.  Back to work on my first magma pump stack, I'm sure that will result in -fun- too

How effective are broadhead/hammerhead bolts? Compared to the regular ones?

[LMeire]

Depends on the target's armor and the material of the bolt, the different head types create different types of damage. Regular bolts are basically mini-spears and Broadhead bolts are like mini-swords, so those follow standard weapon metal statistics (iron, steel, candy, etc.); but hammerheads deal blunt damage, so the most economic metal for them is copper because it weighs more and will pulp a target more effectively.

I found a bug!
In 1.12 (but code didn't change in 1.13, right)?, dwarves have

[PERMITTED_REACTION:WOLFRAMITE_WOLFRAM],
but the reaction was renamed WOLFRAMITE_TUNGSTEN (maybe because wolfram was renamed tungsten)?

So it should be
YES_CRUCIBLE[PERMITTED_REACTION:WOLFRAMITE_TUNGSTEN] to allow dwarves to smelt tungsten.
