:That doesn't happen to me. When a dwarf fires a bolt it should automatically be forbidden and have {} around the name, in which case they won't pick it up. Probably the bolts somehow got unforbidden. --[[User:Tachyon|Tachyon]] 18:09, 2 August 2008 (EDT)

"Metal bolts ... are considered too valuable to be wasted on practice." Is that a rule enforced by the game, or the contributor's opinion? --Tocky 14:13, 11 November 2007 (EST)

am i the only one that has dwarves run out to the middle of nowhere, pick up a single bolt, then put it in a bin?--Eerr 08:57, 1 August 2008 (EDT)

That doesn't happen to me. When a dwarf fires a bolt it should automatically be forbidden and have {} around the name, in which case they won't pick it up. Probably the bolts somehow got unforbidden. --Tachyon 18:09, 2 August 2008 (EDT)

Recovering bolts

can someone confirm that once fired there is no way to re-stack individual bolts?

Assuming this is right I have been setting them to be melted... I have no source of iron nor flux so I can't make steel but I have furnace operators galore and magma.

1 bar produces 25 bolts.

When melted, how many bolts produce 1 bar?
