Invader mounts attacking everything
« on: May 31, 2014, 12:14:49 pm »

In one fort I have going in an evil area, whenever one or several goblin ambush party on mounts arrive, the mounts are hostile to everyone, and start attacking both each other and the goblins. This would be kind of funny, but it also causes a massive spam of ambush interrupt messages that constantly pause the game, making everything grind to a halt unless I use dfhack to kill all the mounts.

Has anyone had this happen?

In this evil area... are there clouds that turn creatures to husks?

Nope. For an evil area it's really quite nice. No reanimation, no clouds. Some dangerous wildlife and the occasional light shower of dwarf blood is all I've noticed. The infighting starts as soon as the ambush parties enter the map.

Can you see what type of mounts are attacking? We can take a look at raws see what's going on

I assume that they take the copies I made of these creatures for the collosseum/arena, they have opposed to life. The game ignoes this in worldgen, and the mounts turn hostile as soon as they arrive on the map. This will be fixed once I update the colosseum to use the spawnunit script better, I already have the fix lying around here. Just a matter of porting it into the raws. :)

It's on my laptop, so I'll have to check to be sure, but I think they were cave crawlers, drow spiders and something like giant blighted bats. Not 100% sure about the spiders, but at least the bats and crawlers started fighting the goblins and each other (these are the only three mount types I've had goblins arrive on).
