Puzzlebox mandate help
« on: August 08, 2010, 05:16:52 pm »

Got a mandate for 3 puzzle boxes, so I've set all 3 craftshops to make stone toys, but one has yet to make a puzzle box

Puzzle boxes are under toys....right?

Yes I believe you are correct.  Keep churning out the toys.

Puzzleboxes are made from metal, not stone.

But if they're asking for stone puzzleboxes, I think it's time to arrange an unfortunate accident. You should probably set something up so they get a hammering.

Nah, they asked for puzzle boxes instead of specifically stone, I was thinking rather than waste my metal I figured I'd use stone instead

Looking at the raws, ITEM_TOY_PUZZLEBOX does not have [HARD_MAT]. If this somehow prevents them from being made from stone, I'd be rather surprised.

If my old fortresses from 40d are any indication, it should definitely be possible to make puzzleboxes from stone, metal, and even glass.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

The only stone puzzleboxes are from strange moods. I forgot about glass though, those are regular.

So metal and glass will yield puzzleboxes, but stone won't?

I ended up at 300 stone toys and not a puzzlebox by the time the mandate ended

Thankfully he only gave a prison sentence to some random people instead of hammering
