Summary0008114: Dwarves arm crossbow traps with single bolts
DescriptionMechanic dwarf loads a single bolt from a bolt stack to a newly constructed (never fired before) trap, then hauls the stack back, and repeats. Probably until the trap is loaded - it takes a horrendous amount of time.

Bolt stack is chosen at random each time, so a bunch of different single bolt ends up in the trap.

A new exploit for splitting bolts for melting?

Confirming that this is still the behavior in 0.44.09.

The trap will eventually be loaded, but it takes a long time if there are multiple crossbows.
