Title: Is adventure mode broken?
Post by: tnuhnivad on February 07, 2018, 11:43:56 pm
 Is anyone else having issues with adventure mode? I'll walk around lairs w/ cyclops, night creatures, vile freaks etc. and not get attacked at all. My followers won't attack anything.

What version are you playing? There's been some bugs recently, most of which have now been fixed.

Ah, sorry, fixed on 1/20 for 'next version'. So, yeah, right now Adventure mode is broken.  :)

I'm using 44.05. Do you think I will I need to generate a new map to acquire these fixes?

v0.44.05 is, in a word, chill.

It's also rather emo. Everyone I have bothered to look at is busily dumping their body fluids via their eyes, including my own adventurer. All crying, all the time.

All hope is not lost though. Recruit a few bandits for companions, and pick a gratuitous fight or two. Murder a couple of night trolls. Word gets around (or something) and you'll start being ambushed and jumped in no time. You can also try walking across some dark pits / dark towers. I didn't try exploring them or anything, and I didn't run into anyone. I was just passing through. Nevertheless, that seems to have pissed them off as this one site keeps sending squads after me anytime I get close.

Show a little initiative, mix in with different groups, and you'll be blood stained and brutalized in no time.

No, the fixes are coming in 44.06. Just gotta make your own trouble until then. The fix should Just Work though when it's released.

I mean, when the update does come and the issues are fixed in the new version, will I need to generate a new world or will I be able to import my current world into the new version and not run into any issues.

Yes, should Just Work.
(But there are quite a lot of fixes in the next version, so some might not. Adventurer docile megabeasts should turn violent with no issues though).

If the monster can talk, try telling it a rumor about how you slew another monster.  It's been working for me.
