« on: November 14, 2012, 02:30:47 am »

Hi

I have just killed a kobald thief a long way away from my caves - will his loot (weapons and cloths) automatically get collected if i have dwarfs set to haul or do i need do something else?

You'll need to claim it using d-b-c, then designating the area around his items. Or, you can use k to view singular items and then claim them one at a time.

Then it happened. Then I cringed. Then I picked it up and beat him to death with it, and then his buddies, too.

and also you can turn on feature to claim loot in orders menu. This will make it fully automatic.
But one day it will surely end up with something like

The first small thing that made me feel awesome was my indoor waterfall. A few minutes later though, it started flooding my fort so I felt less awesome.
