Potentially non-existant cave where visible from map
« on: August 16, 2018, 05:31:40 pm »

I can't post in bug reports and perhaps I'm only not spotting a single downward ramp that some caves seem to have, but I am really unable to find this cave, where an ettin is supposedly hanging out at and has in its possession a human skull totem that some humans want back.

Mostly phone-posting, sorry for any typos or autocorrect hijinks.

I might be overlooking it though. I have seen night creature dens that were listed as lairs and only had a single ramp descending into the ground. They are pretty hard to spot and I want to make sure this is not one of those. Is there a map viewer utility that could point out where it is to within a small radius of tiles?

I have had the same issue and had assumed the cave must be underground. It's worth reporting

The map has 999 caves, 333 in mountains and 666 on anywhere else, and they have minimum parameters of 11 spaces to a maximum of 55 spaces. I notice the cavern hilltops are frequently opened at the bottom though the traditional entrance is halfway up. Still, is there a tool to take detailed views at tiles on the worldmap?
