I just found out that butchered war dogs yield war dog bones.  And from them you can make war dog bone crossbow bolts.  Also, every artifact looks better adorned with spikes of war dog bone.  War bear bones would definitely be a step up from here.
I tested trolls and shearing. Fur of named (or even with profession) troll is named too, but spinned thread isn't named.

H Prepared meal heated state is dependent on random material in the list. Heated up some radish wine roast made with some camel cheese (as first ingredient, but this doesn't always hold - roasts of tallows picked third ingredient), and

||

Quickly removing it from magma and cooling it down returned it to non-melted cheese - however, as a cleanable glob item, not edible raw item. Still cookable, though, so using this exploit repeatedly could multiply some rare ingredients or just let you make more valuable meals via increasing stack size.

Keeping cheese in magma for longer made it catch fire around 10350°U.

Other roasts can behave differently - seems roasts containing seeds or milling products always catch fire instead; probably based on weakest ingredient.

Probably not really new to anyone who made ice cream, but cool nonetheless.



I also believe these might be the first fondue meals made, through I cheated with autodump :P

I also found melted meal cheese isn't cookable - needs to cool down to solid first.

And if dfhack (or made by custom reaction) meal without solid ingredient (I tested meal made out of only powders), it cause crash.

If night troll give birth in fortress mode, children will be friendly (also night troll will not haul her babies, except if dfhack her to be citizen of your fort). Also nightmares and bogeymans summoned in fortmode counts as friendly.

I had a stressed necromancer who started stumbling obliviously while dragging a fully armed goblin somewhere. He just dragged it along on his stumblings.

No, the logs have been purged already.  It was basically like this:

Kea snatches at black bear, bruising the {body location}
repeat x10
Black bear makes no response

I guess Toady wasn't joking when he said, what was it... bears are no different from cows... or something like that.
Black bears should be renamed Teddy Bears.

okay, it probably sounds like him bullshitting here but one of my first forts (about my 6th) was nestled in a mountain range made of a material called liquid cloth. it functioned the same as any other mountain and the map was completely normal aside from that. all my previous embarks were in warm to hot places, this one being temperate, so when winter came around i was completely unprepared for the river freezing and my dwarves ironically going down from thirst. it mustve been a very bizarre bug. idk if this qualifies for this thread though

Sounds like a case of raw duplication, or something of that ilk. "Liquid cloth" is a procedurally generated material, used for spoilery purposes.

I've bought liquid-cloth bagpipes from the elves. Similar to any other set of bagpipes, but very much more expensive. I can only assume the Elves have been having a very !Fun! time playing bagpipes at the Circus, least I could do was give them some volcano-metal equipment to continue their tasks. Better them than me.

liquid cloth is a spoiler material you get from surface HFS. angels wear it sometimes, depending on their sphere
