DF Gameplay Questions / Very weird military behaviour
« on: January 27, 2013, 06:47:21 pm »
Whenever I order a squad to kill anything, it stands near the exit of my fort (walls are around the fort, with a 5 tile wide exit).

The marksdwarves just shoot bolts at the wall endlessly and the melee just stands around. There is a trade depot in the vicinity.

Any idea what causes this? It's frustrating because a wereoposum just ruined a few of my dwarves because the military had the bug.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Hospital restocking with caravan goods?

Would they see me as criminal and siege/ambush me if I keep doing it?

DF Gameplay Questions / Hospital restocking with caravan goods?
« on: January 27, 2013, 02:16:40 pm »
I made a hospital which was in need of cloth. At the same time a caravan arrived. Now all my dwarves are looting and plundering the caravan of all cloth.

Will this give me a bad disposition with humans, should they consider it stealing?

Thanks for the help, I'm doing a 12-dwarf challenge but it's not working out that well.

Much appreciated! :D

They should either disappear after a while, die from hunger or thirst or go stark raving mad I think.. Though I'm not sure about the going mad thing...

You can set autosave in the Lazy Newb Pack settings if I recall correctly.
Not sure about cross platform though..~

DF Gameplay Questions / Any way to prioritize job over hauling labor?
« on: January 27, 2013, 09:24:04 am »
In my fortress everyone prefers hauling over doing their jobs. I can disable them all, yet then I would have no haulers and waiting for new migrants is not feasible. I need to fix this. since my production is based upon demand and not mass production, I want dwarves that have nothing to do to haul items, yet when I give an order I want them to stop hauling. My dorfs do not seem to understand this!

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!  8)

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Dwarves keep putting restrained dogs back in the pen
« on: January 27, 2013, 09:04:49 am »
I don't think you can name your dogs...Maybe using DFHack or something.
Anyways, just unassig them to the pen and I think your troubles will be gone!

You should also make sure you have enough bolts to supply all of your dwarves ánd assign ammunition in the military screen.

DF Gameplay Questions / World Gen History cap?
« on: January 24, 2013, 12:35:11 pm »
Is there a cap to history? And if there is not, would an otherwise good world turn into a barren wasteland over time because of civilization influences?

DF Gameplay Questions / Impossible to build walls...
« on: January 21, 2013, 03:46:56 pm »
It's impossible to build a single wall without a job cancellation because my dwarf is on the tile it's supposed to build a wall on.
Are there any fixes for this? Because I'm constructing above ground and I've had to make all kinds of tedious contraptions for every single tile. I've been working on getting a 5x5 square house up for 2 years now building ramps/destroying walls etc.

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried using a cave-in?

How could one cause a cave-in above ground ánd on a higher Z level than 0?

Isn't magma mist sulphur or something? But indeed, I it's a bug, I was able to recreate it. Has it been reported yet? (@Quietust)
