Okay, I could have resized it a bit. I didn't even notice the white on the bottom. It's difficult to edit pictures in MS Paint.   :(

If you look at the bottom of the drawing area you'll see a box...

Move the mouse over it, it should turn into an arrow. click and drag it to shorten the drawing area.

I know. I just missed doing it at all for some reason. Probably was too upset about poor "".

I wonder what the heck happened anyway. I went into town and first thing I know, some humans are fighting some other humans, and then the wagon goes.

I'd like to see a family tree of wagons, once that comes out.

" "" was upset by the death of a relative, lately."

I can just imagine a wagon throwing a tantrum and tossing all its contents at people.

Maybe the wagon died of old age?  :p

Oh, huge picture.   :eek:

Well, wagons can be selected by 'v' in fortress mode. So I assume they are actually special creatures?

If you start a wagon fortress, what do they arrive in?
If you tear down all the wagons, does your fortress wither?
Can you select skills for your wagons?
How does the wagon metalsmith get there?
Will you get wagon migrants?
Will you start with 7 extra mules and horses?

Testing this now.

UPDATE: After modding the corrct files, I started a new world. It got to about 270 canceled worlds before the game crashed.

Most importantly, does every area of the Wagon Fortress need to be 3x3?
Do wagons breed?
If so, how long does it take for the little baby wagons to grow up?
And finally, what happens when a wagon goes stark raving mad?

I ran into this and tried to make em breed never succeeded and seems(that woulda been great for a treeless map!) but the wagon had to kill someone to get a name no?

Aww, so wagon fortress won't work eh? well, maybe with modifications...

Add wagons as a common pet. Then make em trainable so you can have warwagons!!
Title: Re: Wagon death!
Post by: BDR on August 21, 2007, 05:06:00 am
Don't they need to have an attack for them to be useful as warwagons, though?  I guess it's not a problem to add, but it's not already in there....  :p

"Chuckthunder"?
That sounds like half a joke...
Do all the dwarves there only attack with roundhouse kicks?

You see the icon like a piece of paper and a pencil? Click it, and change the image url to something less collosal.
