− | ''' | + | '''Coffins''', ''caskets'', ''sarcophagi'' or ''burial receptacles'' are {{L|container}}s for deceased dwarves and {{L|pet|pets}}, used to store their {{L|corpse}}s or other {{L|remains}}. Dwarves prefer to inter their dead and pets in coffins/tombs rather than leaving their corpses to rot. Using coffins avoids {{L|Thought|unhappy thoughts}}, prevents the spread of miasma, and the ownership of a particularly nice or valuable tomb may give the owner a happy thought{{verify}}. {{L|Noble}}s will often require a tomb, which is designated from the coffin, as part of their basic wish-list, or {{L|demand}} specific items in their tomb. |
+ | While coffins may be made out of a variety of different materials, a particularly well-crafted coffin made from a valuable material (like {{L|metal}}, {{L|glass}}, or {{L|economic stone}}) can greatly increase the {{L|room|room quality}}. Once crafted, a coffin will be stored in a furniture {{L|stockpile}} until placed. Placing a coffin can be done from the {{L|Menu|building menu}} ({{K|b}} and then {{K|n}}). Once it is {{L|hauling|hauled}} to that location, it may then be designated as a {{L|tomb}} and activated (allowed) for citizen burial. | ||
− | {| | + | For a general cemetery just put a lot of coffins in one room, and allow them to be used for burial with {{K|q}} and then {{K|b}} for each coffin. Tombs are for nobles. |
