I'm trying to see if I can gold-plate my fortress (don't ask) and I've been turning my gold ore/nuggets/whatever it's called into bars. When I go into the build menu to make walls or floors and try and choose "gold bars" as the material used, it says I apparently have 8 when I've checked in my stocks menu and have a little over 100. I checked to make sure they hadn't been dumped or forbidden, so I assume it's not a bug or something, and that it just takes more bars to construct a wall than stone blocks, which makes sense. (10 bars for 1 wall or floor section?) Can anyone else confirm this? And if so, I'd imagine for cost-effectiveness I'll have to start making Native Gold Blocks and doing it that way. It's something to consider, too, if anyone wants to start making iron or bronze or whatever walls out of a metal that doesn't come in a block form.[[User:Gnavin|Gnavin]] 09:55, 29 July 2009 (UTC) | I'm trying to see if I can gold-plate my fortress (don't ask) and I've been turning my gold ore/nuggets/whatever it's called into bars.

*Are you sure you're reading the item count and not the distance? The item count displayed in the Build menu maxes out at 99. Exactly one "bars" is required in order to build a wall or floor. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 16:30, 2 September 2009 (UTC) | *Are you sure you're reading the item count and not the distance?
