Tavern has no visitors
« on: February 11, 2016, 10:11:11 am »

Usually I got 3 visitors as soon as I set up a tavern.
But since 42.06 I have yet to see any visitor...

At first I thought it was because all civs had died, so I generate a younger world, still no luck after 2 years.

Has the logic been changed?

Well, I generated the 3rd world and finally got a visitor...

it seems to be tied to how famous your fort is

increasing wealth, population, and making the tavern nicer should all increase the number of visitors

Was that not the case in earlier versions?

I've been running an .05 fort and have been practically flooded with visitors to the point that it's mildly annoying.

killing guests dosnt seem to anger their civilization, makes for good live training

and i do mean ordering them to kill and not just bar fights

I suspect the civs the visitors should come from need to be of a reasonable size to produce travelers that visit you. Over about 5 pocket fortresses in 0.42.X I've had a total of 1 visitor (and nobody else for 35+ years in this fortress). In contrast, I got flooded when I upped the size of the world two steps and settled near healthy non hostile civs.

I suspect this change is down to the now-fixed exported wealth counter. That was broken before, so perhaps the check for wealth wasn't working, and visitors were arriving way earlier than intended.

Makes sense.
Because in 42.05 I always get 3 visitors right away after setting up a meeting zone only tavern at the beginning.

But any ideas why I don't have a single visitor in 2 years sometimes? Maybe a Hydra eat them on their way to the tavern?
