**Summary:** With the new goblin spawning and item drops, my footmen often kill a goblin and a crafter looking for the item that they drop will run over and pick it up before anybody can loot it. It will remain on their workshop with a ‘loot’ sprite if you have tagged it to be looted.

**Steps to reproduce:**

1. Kill enemy
2. Select dropped item, click to loot _(e.g. iron ore)_
3. Have crafter build something with the dropped item as an ingredient _(e.g. iron ingot)_

**Expected results:**  
Item enters your possession when picked up, loot sprite disappears.

**Actual results:**

This sprite hovered over the anvil until the ingot was hammered out (a good 10 minutes later!)

**Version:** r375

I also noted this happening with a log brought to the fire pit. It was later looted for real, but the fire kept going, resulting in this old bug:

> Title: The firepit doesn’t use the log provided Summary: The firepit doesn’t use the log provided to lit it. Steps to reproduce: Wait until nighttime. See how a settler picks up a log, carries it to the firepit, and uses it to lit the fire. See how the same or other settler picks that log and returns it to the stockpile. Expected Results: The log should stay at the firepit until morning. Actual Results: The firepit keeps lit all the night without a log, and the log is not wasted as it is r…
