Forbidding Stone through the Stocks screen[edit]
Regarding this information:
- Note that if you forbid a type of stone (or block) using the Stocks screen, you will also forbid every workshop and building made from that particular type of stone (or block). This is a common cause of dwarves suddenly refusing to perform assigned tasks in workshops. Use t or <d,b,c> to check for forbidden workshops (or other items) and to reclaim them - use Enter to affect a rectangular area, or click with your mouse on specific items or buildings.
- Some players make a point to use only blocks for their workshops, so forbidding all of a particular type of stone won't stop work in every workshop built from that stone. (And then they don't use this menu to forbid blocks.)
This no longer appears to be the case in the current version--when toggling the forbid status of a group of items, any of those items used in buildings are not toggled. --Loci (talk) 20:34, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
