0004794: Smelter wont' accept marble as a flux stone
Not sure what happened, I was making steel bars just fine but then suddenly marble didn't work any more at the smelter. Not a burrow issue because the smelter itself won't list the job to make steel/pig iron as available. I do have un-forbidden marble in a stockpile.

I've uploaded a save to here:
http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=4760 [^]

I suspect this is the same issue as in http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=1412#c4553, [^] but that seems to be closed and I can't figure out how to link it to this one.

I just loaded your savegame, deactivated the military, and waited - after a while, a mason finally got around to constructing the Smelter (it had never actually been built), and your Weaponsmith started making pig iron, using marble as flux.

Yeah, I deconstructed the smelter to try to fix the problem; in that save it's waiting to be reconstructed. If you look at stocks screen you'll see pig iron bars -- I'd made those, with marble. For me ,running that save forward doesn't fix it -- even when constructed it don't make marble.

That said, if the save works for you then maybe it's a problem with my installation or something, though even then, reverting to an earlier save fixes it. Odd, at any rate.

If you can get it to reproduce, reopen this and post further info/new save.

Also, if you will, go to [My Account] -> [Profiles] and set up your OS, etc - certain bugs are OS-specific and that is needed info.
