Tavern-less fortress visitors?
« on: December 02, 2017, 07:32:27 pm »

Haven't even built any taverns in my newest fort yet, and yet I somehow just received a visitor in the form of an elven mercenary. Is this a bug or just one of the changes of the new release?

It's actually pretty terrifying to think about having all of your fat melt off into grease because you started sweating too much.

Alright, good to know. Hopefully it'll get fixed then. For now, guess my squad can use her for target practice. :P

Yeah, it is getting annoying. I have a hell of a lot of visitors, from the start, whatever fort it is, however isolated. Sigh.

I found a simple solution to this:


I actually haven't had any new unwanted visitors since then, but I'm not sure if that's just a happy coincidence or word got out of my hospitality.

Unless visitors have suddenly become aware of their surroundings in this version it's a coincidence. In 0.43.05 they continue to come even if you murder all of them (if I've understood forum reports correctly), and the happily arrive in droves during sieges (including undead ones, which do not spare civilians).

the elf flood is bad, the only way I know how to not have a FPS death from the sea of elf vistitors is to embark far away from elf civs.
