Corpse reraising oddities
« on: February 18, 2012, 07:19:33 pm »

So, uh, I'm a necromancer, raiding a necromancer's tower (the first of many; all the slabs will be mine!). Everything's going peachy, because only the necromancers are attacking me. After clearing out a floor of necromancers, I attack the peaceful corpses so that I can re-raise them to follow my orders, and, well...



Hilarious syntax errors galore. I've had the same problem with my own raised and re-raised corpses (for instance, "The wolf mutilated corpsewolf mutilated corpse strikes at the warlord!")

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

I believe this was fixed by 0.34.02.

Nope, this is from a game started in 34.02.

So? This is one thing that seems to bother everyone but i never seemed to care about. If some text is misspelled or glitches (eg. dwarfseption) then unless your a complete idiot, you should probobly know what it is.

something weird I've found is that if you injure a part enough, the necro raising it will just keep raising for it only to die on the next turn from bleeding out. And every single time nets you another kill for your list.

Yup. The answer to stop corpses resurrecting is to kill them to death some more.
