This seems a bit confusing. Is it possible to collect sand without bags? Without a glass furnace? What do you set to get your dwarves to do it?--[[User:Xazak|Xazak]] 17:56, 3 November 2007 (EDT) | This seems a bit confusing. Is it possible to collect sand without bags? Without a glass furnace?

:So far, in all my fortresses, my dwarves never asked for something they could not find on the map for their moods. In my current fortress, I have a ''lot'' of items made of rock, wood, bone and leather... --[[User:Eagle of Fire|Eagle of Fire]] 20:16, 4 December 2007 (EST) | :So far, in all my fortresses, my dwarves never asked for something they could not find on the map for their moods.

::: Yes it's true, I was shocked to discover a piece of black sand next to my undeground river and I know for a fact that there was otherwise no sand on this map because when I embarked I would've brought a glassmaker with me initially. --[[User:Gamli|Gamli]] 01:11, 21 November 2008 (PST) | ::: Yes it's true, I was shocked to discover a piece of black sand next to my undeground river and I know for a fact that there was otherwise no sand on this map because when I embarked I would've brought a glassmaker with me initially. --[[User:Gamli|Gamli]] 01:11, 21 November 2008 (PST) | ||

::::A search of the forums turned up a handful of similar stories. So it's not a total fluke, but if it happened on every map, it would be well-known. I wonder what the underlying factors are? Muddy tiles + time seem to be an absolute minimum. Maybe a discovered cave river is needed too (due to the shrub/tree growth it triggers)?--[[User:Maximus|Maximus]] 14:50, 2 November 2008 (EST) | ::::A search of the forums turned up a handful of similar stories.
