0008307: Items brought by a caravan fulfill certain mandates
I recently had a mayor elected who likes to mandate the production of large gems. Since I don't have a gem cutter, I resigned myself to a steady stream of convictions. However, each time a caravan arrives, I notice that the mandate magically vanishes and the mayor is "pleased to have a mandate deadline met lately". This has happened twice, coinciding with both the human and dwarven caravan since the latest election. My guess is that the game is somehow counting the caravan's items as part of the fort as far as this mandate is concerned.
Unknown.
Note: This has NOT happened for production mandates involving shields, helms, amulets, or figurines. I have ONLY noticed it for the production mandates involving large gems.
I don't know whether it happens for other production mandates, as I didn't start keeping track until now.
No tags attached.
