DF Gameplay Questions / One bad mother...?
« on: March 15, 2008, 06:20:00 pm »
During a goblin ambush, one of my dwarves who was carrying a baby was struck with an arrow and wounded. Another dwarf dutifully dragged her to a bed so she could rest, but they callously left her baby behind. Naturally, the baby crawled out of the courtyard area and was quickly stolen away by goblin snatchers (I had three come at my base, the other two were trapped in cages and now found THEMSELVES snatched. I love that.)
What's weird is that the mother isn't registering her baby's disappearance at all. She is still resting, so could it just be that she hasn't had time to get the "Locate Child" job and hasn't realized the child is missing? Or do they just not care when a child is snatched or something? She doesn't have any unhappy thoughts related to the child and the child still appears as her relative on her personal info.
I'm just imagining none of the other dwarves have the heart to tell her that her baby is probably on some smelly goblin's breakfast table by now.
