I keep deleting my old worlds and making new ones with each new update.
This latest one, I decided to follow some advice from another person on the DF Forums.
I took no picks or axes, but took plenty of copper nuggets and coal and kept my anvil so I could forge new ones on site. The problem? I forgot to bring stone to make the forge, furnace, and smelter out of, and evidently even if you tell your dwarves that they can use copper nuggets for building, they won't touch them at all.
If I can hold out until fall I might be able to trade for blocks, but I doubt my dwarves will survive that long. Shame too, the site's got two rivers *and* a waterfall, and I was planning on building my dining room in front of the latter.
EDIT: Found out the problem! The stone list has copper twice; Once as copper bars, and once as copper nuggets, and I was enabling the wrong one.
