0008865: Screen indicates rotten chunks can be eaten
If you hover the mouse cursor over a rotten chunk in your inventory or on the ground, the game indicates that it can be eaten when it cannot (see pic). Playing a Kobold if that matters.

Similar to Issue ID 0008618

I suppose this won't matter for chunkless

This seems to be the same as the 0.14 behaviour. What exactly do you expect to see here?

I would expect that the little pop-up menu would not indicate that I can eat the rotten chunk when in actuality I can't eat it. (see 2nd pic)

Referencing issue ID 0008618, I reported that issue when corpses became stationary (unable to be picked up), the little pop-up menu indicated that I could in fact pick up the corpse. Neil's commit changed it so now if you hover the cursor over a corpse it simply has a one line description 'a goblin corpse' unless you have some other way of interacting with it.

Since rotten chunks can no longer be eaten, I think the same logic would follow in this case.

Ah, I thought this was related to removing saprovorous. Just noticed when playing Tengu that it still says I can eat a rotten chunk when I actually can't.

So yea, I assume this is same behaviour as 0.14 ...but still seems like something that could be fixed. The menu shouldn't say I can eat something when I can't.

No such thing as rotting chunks anymore.
