Region log files
« on: November 24, 2008, 10:18:25 am »

My question is, do the region .txt files (eg. region1-world_history.txt & region1-world_sites_and_pops.txt) get updated once you play? I just noticed that on my previous active region, there are only 89 goblins remaining (had some long fights there).

Also peeking at the creation times of the files seems to imply this.

If that's the case, would renaming the region save folders affect this?

No, they only get updated when you export them.

Yea but I have certainly killed more than 90 goblins on all my fortresses total :P

Also, why are the creation times of the files the same with when I last played in that region?

Maybe you re-exported by accident last time you played?

The goblins may have bred before you started killing them.

89 goblins can make quite a bit of offspring.

Doesn't it create the non-leader goblins at the time of the siege?
