Summary

0001230: Goblin grows 'attached' to a weapon while caged and inactive.

Description

"Snang Atusost, Goblin Lasher has grown attached to a silver scourge!"

The goblin has been sitting in a cage in my stockpile, completely inactive, for at least two seasons, yet has grown attached to his weapon. I don't even think he's used it, since I have a trapped perimeter to take care of all ambushes.

Is this desired behaviour? Aren't only weapons being used meant to be attachable, and if not, is it meant to be the case that passage of time can cause attachment even while caged, and if so, is that meant to happen to goblins in a dwarf fort?

-> Only other attachment bug I could see is 0000667

Steps To Reproduce

Trap invader in cage trap.
Wait.

Notes
(0003837) Vince (reporter) 2010-04-16 06:10	At least it sounds logical. I mean, trapped in a cage for half a year? Maybe his scourge was his only friend... :(

(0003943) dante (reporter) 2010-04-16 22:45	Yeah, I'm not really sure if it's a bug or not. I'll see if he goes on to name it.

(0003951) Cryten (reporter) 2010-04-16 23:47	I vote feature, unless he had the item removed from him.

(0008395) Toady One (administrator) 2010-06-14 02:10	Yeah, it's intended to have rarer attachments to objects that are just held rather than used to perform glorious acts. That the goblin announced it is a bug that I'll handle over in 0000759.
