Summary0004906: Named item unable to be equiped/dumped
DescriptionI had my one of my military dwarves use a bismuth bronze shield and sometime later after training with it for a while, he named it. Because I was short on shields I cycled 3 shields among my ten soldiers. As soon as I unequipped it, it became unable to be re-equipped by any of my dwarves. Now I can't even dump the item. All I can do is view it.

Named items are analagous to artifacts, and artifacts cannot be dumped, so that part is normal.

The dwarf that actually named the item will usually prefer to equip it.

Reminder sent to: Skaughtey

Since the shield has been used in combat, please verify that it isn't forbidden.

Dwarfu, no, the item was not forbidden. I made sure to check that first thing. Quietust, I did double check to see if the item was owned, but it didn't list anyone.

Fortunately, I was able to use the item again when I starting playing today. I don't know what caused the item to behave as it did, but everything seems to be fine now except that there is a list of shields in the equip screen that are apparently made of underground wood. When I try to equip these my dwarves do nothing and I cannot find them anywhere.

I am sorry if something I do is improper or I am misinformed. This is the first time I've used this site. Is there anything I should do to my bug report since the issue appears to be resolved?

It is okay. Thanks for the follow-up. If you are able to get it to reproduce, please reopen this report and post further details.
