| Summary | 0003116: Soldier equipped vial of extract (golden salve) as waterskin, then added alcohol to it | ||||
| Description | After putting a few more dwarves into my military, I observed that two of them had taken a green glass vial instead of one of my many leather waterskins. Upon viewing them more closely, I discovered that both contained "golden salve [25]" as well a few units of alcohol. While it's nice that military dwarves are using flasks and vials as well as waterskins, they really should be taking ones that are empty. | ||||

Some sort of priority for flask selection might be in order, ideally with glass vials being at lowest priority (since they can be used for making plant extracts) and perhaps with leather waterskins having higher priority than metal flasks. There's also the issue that forbidding the glass vial has no effect on equipment assignments - the soldier will continue to want to use the glass vial until it no longer exists; I ended up dumping them, waiting for a caravan to arrive, then unforbidding them and ordering them taken to the depot, and only when the caravan left the map did the soldiers finally select new flasks (this time with all of the glass vials forbidden so they had no choice but to take a waterskin). |

To clarify, the vial did not contain alcohol until after it had been equipped as a waterskin - thus, containing 2 liquids is a result, not a prerequisite, of this bug. The summary should be changed to "Soldier equipped golden salve vial as waterskin" (or perhaps "extract-containing vial" since it'll probably also happen with stuff like liquid fire). |

There seems to be a "priority flask selection" in place. The most expensive flasks get used first. However since contents are counted into the value of the flask, vials of golden salve are the first to get assigned. That's a conjecture. Fact is that about all my golden salve is in vials carried by the military, damn it. I wondered where it was gone as it was unavailable for trading. |
