DF Gameplay Questions / Mysterious dwarf
« on: October 21, 2007, 04:00:00 pm »
I recently started a new fortress i had started to get everything setup when my metal smith arrived, i headed back to my bas to build him a bridge across when my eye was caught by a peasent in my base. after a quick count of dwarves i noticed i had 9 my original 7 the metalsmith and this mysterius newcomer, does anyone know where they might of come from? im pretty sure they cant be an immagrant because the only ford across the river leads to the north of my irrigation channel and the only entrance to my mine is south of the channel.

the only doors i have are those leading to my farms which ive only locked twice (the 2 times i flooded the room) none of my dwarves were injured, i deliberatley chose a peacful map and gave thos going outside war dogs, i dont have any buckets i know of (apart from the 3 used to build my wells) do you need them to drink?

I like to think that the king has arrived disguised as a peasent but he enjoys peasenting so much he decides to quit the whole king business and your kingdom becomes a republic.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: sleeping
« on: February 23, 2008, 04:00:00 pm »
if their rooms are accessible they should go there to sleep, easier than assigning every room just build the furniture and designate the room area, once a dwarf without a room gets sleepy they will head to the nearest unassigned room and claim it the room will then be theres. to check if the dwarves have a room assigned to them use [v]-[p]-[z].

Q: I uncovered a cave river will towercaps only grow near the river/on mud made from the river?
A: Uncovering a cave river releases ltos of spores so any underground mud will have tower caps grow on it

Q: My dwarf is trapped in a workshop he built and is starving to death why wont he leave it?
A: All workshops have at least one unpassable tile if there is only a one tile entrance to the workshop (the other edges are surrounded by wall) ensure the entrance isnt blocked.

Q: My noble mandated some metal items i ordered the bars smelted but before i got round to making anything the mandate disappeared, why?
A: Bars count toward mandates.

If you smooth a boulder then place the road you will build over it and it will all be road if you place the road then smooth the boulder it will function the same but the boulder bit will be smoothed boulder not road (Meaning you can engrave it, I enjoy smoothing and engraving random boulders.)

DF Gameplay Questions / Amazing dog
« on: November 24, 2007, 08:26:00 pm »
i have this war dog which got wounded, im not quite sure how but i think it may have got caught in the spike trap when i used it on the merchants (spike traps ftw no chance of sticking) anyhow it is running around with a red lung wound and continually fainting, yet no-one does anything for it i have people with the animal care labour and i figured they were supposed to care for it but they are just hanging around in my meeting room with no job, will my dog ever heal it lung and is there somethign i need to build before my animal carers will do something for it (i have neither kennel nor barracks)
