Attack triggers: Sounds like you've got that backwards...
Thanks
Some repetition be can useful, because there is so much to learn in DF

Thanks

There are some ways to lock the dorfs inside: via  squads or burrows as i understand it now
Both i must apply once
 
> How dangerous it is outside depends on your embark, your neighbors, and the attack triggers you've set (or left at their default values)
 

Those attack trigger as low as possible of course ..lowering possible ? ( a stealth fortress: invisible ..for that we need magic  :D

DF Gameplay Questions / Dorfs restricted to safe fortress
« on: April 04, 2020, 05:45:44 am »
They are sometimes going wandering the inhabitants outside the fortress.
Can i restrict the population of the fortress that they stay inside ( not by a burrow then ? )

Then i can do hunting (hunter with dogs ) or is it no problem that dorfs going outside their safe fortress?

But there was more going on in the fortress..i don'tknow if this happens all the time in a fortress that some dorfs are not behaving normal
Difference between insane and berserk ?
◾Insane: 2
◾Fey: 1
◾Berserk: 1
Go Beserk is.. Erupt in furious rage, become crazily violent, yes when there is dwarf behaving like this it is a thread for other dorfs

Loyalty cascade. Happens from time to time. Probably someone killed the beserk dwarf after he attacked someone randomly. Then a bunch of other dwarves joined in on each side. Killed each other.

Was there a another way to handle against a beserk dorf in the fortress ?
Yes, should be more complicated in DF to judge the emotions on common sense

The dorf has the right to defend itself when he is attacked, and maybe better to kick out the beserked dwarf from the fortress.
No .. it is very dangerous to handle a beserked  dorf , because  he/she is crazily violent.

Presumably they were attacked by some wild animals. We're the caverns open. There should be more detailed info than that in Legends.
Thanks
This fortress has no entrance to cavern and was some z-level deep..and all 17 dorfs were killed by other dorfs
Find out more...from the event log ( some filtering possible) on this : why the 17 dorfs are killed
 
Example:
0250-08-12 In 250, midautumn, (12th of Sandstone) Udil was taken by a fey mood in Walleddiamond. change hf state
0250-09-25 In 250, late autumn, (25th of Timber) Udil went berserk in Walleddiamond after failing to create an artifact. change hf state
0250-09-25 In 250, late autumn, (25th of Timber) Udil was struck down by the dwarf Ubbul Slingtaut the Diamond Virtue with a (693) in (my fortress) Walleddiamond.

Now i know why Udil was strucked down by Ubbul : Udil became dangerous and maybe was Ubbul attacked by her?
With a (693) ?

Yeah, i can filter on date and event ( death), so the first died dwarf can be examined and  0n 250-09-25

In 250, late autumn, (25th of Timber) the dwarf Ber Moralmined was struck down by the dwarf Vutok Letterswallowed the Brass Brain of Teeth with a (578) in Walleddiamond

Vutok has killed more dorfs (5 on same date) and why ? and Ber had a normal mood
Vutok used as murder weapon: with a (578) ?
Vutok is a female and her goal was: create a great work of art
Vutok ..nothing to find about her mood
Vutok ..one day later she was killed by a another dorf Ubbul with a (693?) ( why?)

Could not find more ..maybe it was the stress level, because the dwarves became thirsty ( probably the drinksupply was not well done by me, unfortunaly still )

If you open up Legends Mode, find your site (under Sites, start from the bottom of the list and move up, sites you played will be highlighted), you should be able to scroll through all the events of your fortress and see how dwarves died. 17 dead dwarves should be easy to spot.
Thanks
I did with: legend_plus.xml and legends.xml

I got a page with the name of the civilization/goverment  and fortress name and could read the events
Seems to me that 17 dorfs get strucked/suffocated/bled
example
IT SHOULD BE HANDY IN LEGENDSVIEWER THAT THE "TAB" COULD BE COPIED AND DRAGGED TO A NEW SCREEN

But, yeah, Legends will tell you how they died if you remember their names. In future remember to check "r" for reports, it'll show you any violent goings on (including when logs fall on woodcutters).
Thanks
Their names are unknown(sudden death)
Reports is overlooked ( that's a pity), thought that a announcement was all

If you don't know what happened in your fortress and you want us to help figure it out, consider uploading a copy of it to the Dwarf Fortress File Depot and posting a link to it.


This is an option whenever. If you're running into an issue you don't understand, one of us might be able to figure it out for you.

Thanks
That's nice to know that someone will examine for what was going on with the disappeared dorfs ( the corpse pile is full of material remains ).
 i can leave a copy there on the filedepot (under miscellaneous ?), although its too late to save the fortress

Coronasvirus?
As far as I know that fills up the hospital, and those that don't make it leave corpses behind. Also, diseases are not implemented in DF.
Suppose they get a disease the dorfs, then we get a hospital with new challenges

No, that's not the case that i got(need) help..its too late.
I tried to do by myself, but i did not succeed in it
The fortess has almost comes to his end and no rescue seems to me possible with two dorfs left .. i need stone for building a slab, but this two dorfs don't gonna make it to make a slab or do mining for a economic stone ( needed for a slab)

The fortress has not come to his end (almost near), so looking at the past history in the legens viewer gives perhaps the answer why those 17 dorfs died?.

Can't find anything about a missing hand
A miner is now dying and i see in his wound summary that some body parts are orange or red
Are those bodyparts then severely hurt him ?

He is starving ( in red color) and dehydrated ( in red too )
His left upper arm /right lower arm / righthand/ lefthand are all orange colored
Conclusion: he cannot drink anymore ?
Further..  right wrist/ankle broken and third finger and right hand are red colored ( missing bodyparts?

The miner is not making it ?-- only 4 dorfs left .. :o
The only hope if there are migrants arriving to survive the fortress, but when..is there a prediction?

Got a small message popping up at right bottom : looks he is dead ...from who ?

Everything else leaves a corpse (intact, in pieces, or raised as an undead unit).
Thanks
Found only a left hand on the corpse pile from one dorf of the 17
Now more bodyparts are dropped there
Left only 5 dorfs and hopefully migrants are coming ? ..i try to build a slab

No track records of migrants ? .. there was a wave of migrants ( but now all died )
