Your adventurer is simultaneously starving and too full? Do you keep starving if you wait a while?

To footkercheif, Yes it does keep starving me and I can starve to death if I cant digest whatever is occupying my gut in time.

In that case, you should probably upload a save demonstrating this problem. http://dffd.wimbli.com/ [^]

By the way, how is this intentional? (No offense intended)

It's possibly realistic. Having food in your belly doesn't mean that your body has digested it, or that the nutrients have entered your bloodstream.

However all of the time eating food makes the starving/hungry icon go away instantly.

I'll add my own report here, since this just happened to me in 31.10.

Went hunting in the mountains. Fell asleep by a brook. Woke up hungry and thirsty. Drank until I couldn't, no longery thirsty but still hungry. Tried to eat some meat. Got a "too full" message, despite being hungry. Wasn't starving though.

Walked around for a while and was eventually able to eat something. Looks like the amount of fullness a bit of meat restores is just a bit larger than the threshold at which you become hungry. Either that or there's a problem with sleeping.

This was NOT a save I transferred from an earlier version. I genned this world in 31.10.

With 0.34.01, I ate when it said "hungry". It still said "hungry", but trying to eat again told me I was too full.

I am seeing the same issue as Khym Chanur, but in 0.34.02 (adventure mode).

There seem to be a lot of confusion about this so let me explain.
Dwarf can only drink or eat 3 times before becoming "too full" and having to wait a while.
This was and likely still is easy to reproduce.
If you drink 3 times then you can't eat because you are too full, even if starving.
If you eat 3 times then you can't drink because you are too full, even if dehydrated.

It was already described long time ago in the notes in 0005065.

This is how the game mechanics works, now the only question is if it is a good mechanic or not. Imho it is bad because it doesn't show to the player how full he is, until it is too late, and maybe it shouldn't allow the player to fill himself with only water if he is starving?
