Caravans can now (0.44.12) pass by half goblin teeth (and sometimes even whole goblin corpses) without automatically panicking, so something was definitely done.
I would expect the issue here is actually the report text not being changed, so every bit is still reported as the whole corpse (it wasn't too long ago seeing a corpse was reported as seeing the actual death of the creature), while the stress effect under the hood actually is differentiated.
To determine if it's just an incorrect text or if there actually is no difference, you'd have to examine the stress generated teeth, intermediate size body parts and (mostly) whole corpses for a range of dorfs. To make sure the test is done correctly, each corpse part should be from a different individual (to avoid any reductions that may take place for multiple viewings of the same individual), but all bits should be of the same class of corpse (i.e. all of them should be invading goblins, or all of them should be invading trolls, etc.)
It would be even better if the different test subjects were subjected to the bits in different orders, to account for (the probably completely non existent) desensitizing effect of multiple victims. |
