0002541: Ammunition stockpiles: "Other Materials" in settings show nothing, can't Permit or Forbid
Trying to set up different stockpiles for my bone and metal bolts, I noticed that the Other Materials section of the Stockpile Settings screen has nothing on it.

Highlighting it and pressing F or P to Forbid or Permit does not change it. It still does appear to have some effect, because Block and Allow can be used to enable or disable it, and it does indeed appear to have an effect on what sort of bolts go in that stockpile. (Either that, or the fact that one had the metal category enabled and the other didn't was what did it.)

I imagine it's probably WIP, but I thought I'd report it here just in case it's an oversight.
Create an ammo stockpile.
Go into its Settings and attempt to forbid or permit the Other Materials category.
No tags attached.

What effect does it have?

In (seemingly) allowing or disallowing bolts of other materials into the stockpile.

(EDIT: Fixed mistake "allowing or permitting.")

Thanks Dwarfu. I'm going to retitle your report to try to make it more searchable.
