Disappearing Ecrusted Goods
Would anyone know why the objects that I encrust with jems don't seem to turn up anywhere? The encruster just stands around with it for a while and then I can't find it anymore. Patarak 05:20, 24 January 2008 (EST)
- Dwarf McShinyPants cancels encrust with antimatter: Giant Explosion.--Ikkonoishi 12:53, 24 January 2008 (EST)
- maybe they r stuck in your workshop cos thers no room in/no fitting stockpile or no hauler available? use t on the workshop to check its contents--Koltom 16:48, 10 February 2008 (EST)
Encrusting Ammo
Is there really a point to it unless you're selling the ammo? I would expect it to increase damage or something, but that's just me. --Eurytus 23:39, 2 April 2008 (EST)
- Encrusing ammo only increases its value, and it is currently bugged so that encrusted ammo is much more valuable than it should be. Bouchart 09:52, 13 April 2008 (EDT)
- As an example, a stack of 25 iron bolts encrusted with topazes are worth over 10000 dwarfbucks. --Doniazade 10:24, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
Multiple gem decorations?
Can I decorate an item with more than one type of gem? Gairabad 00:30, 18 December 2008 (EST)
- Yes. Each gem type is a separate decoration. --Squirrelloid 01:17, 18 December 2008 (EST)
Base Item Material
Can I decorate an item made of <Material> with decorations made of <Same Material>? Rkyeun 13:50, 18 December 2008 (EST)
- <Yes>.--Maximus 13:53, 18 December 2008 (EST)
Types of decorations
Does anyone know what all the possible types of decoration are? I assume you couldn't have the same type of decoration twice (even if the material used is different) but is that really true? How do multiple decorations of different quality affect the quality tag that shows up on the item?--Jpwrunyan 01:15, 29 January 2009 (EST)
- From the value page: Decorations include "It is decorated with <material>", "It is banded with <material>", "It is adorned with hanging rings of <material>", "This object menaces with spikes of <material>", "On this object is an image of <description> in <material>", "It is studded with <metal>".--Dorten 01:57, 3 February 2009 (EST)
- Thank you!--Jpwrunyan 02:26, 4 February 2009 (EST)
sew image
both clothiers and leatherworkers can sew images onto all the same materials.. as in, leatherworkers can sew on cloth and vice versa. bug? (v0.28.181.40d.)
- If I understand your question, the answer is No. Why does this strike you as strange? In real life you can have leather decorations on regular cloth. You can also sow into (soft) leather. Most leather jackets, for example, have a cloth liner. Military clothes of any material will have insignia sewn on it. You need to go clothes shopping some time!--Jpwrunyan 05:41, 2 February 2009 (EST)
