Summary0007968: Masons build wooden walls out of fabulous materials without using up the material
DescriptionI've gotten this on a save from 40.07 and a fresh test from 40.08: a wall that is supposed to be made out of wood is built by a dorf with masonry set using no material at all. First game was "Unknown material wall", second game was "amber wall". (I didn't even know we had amber :) ) Tried both times on reclaim embarks; the first used peach wood from a cut tree, the second try was with wagon wood.
Steps To ReproduceEmbark (I don't know if it has to be reclaim)
Set some walls to be built out of wood
Let a dorf without carpentry enabled go do it.

On further examination, this bug does NOT apply to the left-most or top-most wall segment in a multi-segment section, but it does to the others. When deconstructed, the walls simply vanish - you don't get the rock/amber/unknown material to play with.

Erm... it's actually more broken than that. On this fort I'm getting them to do it even with rock walls with masonry enabled. I just started a fresh one and got the same thing (amber from fungiwood) on a non-reclaim regular 2x2 embark, no advanced parameters in the worldgen either.

You're positive it reproduces in 0.40.08? This was supposedly fixed (0007937).

Oh, crap --- never mind, I'm an idiot. Somehow I opened 40.07 by accident that time, I'm sure of it. Is thee a way to kill this report?
