So interspecies disguises ARE possible?
« on: December 07, 2017, 02:29:47 am »
According to legends mode, my current world has at least one goblin that managed to convince a civ he was a shadow gnome monster slayer. Is this a bug, and if so...am I the first to report it?

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

There was a screenshot with a buffalo covincing goblins that he is a goblin, not a buffalo.  :D
Bug, yes(?).

The helicopter is rent apart by the collision, its steel unable to resist its inevitable reunion with the ground, and the meat within is smashed by the crumpling cockpit beyond any practical hope of recovery. What comes up, must come down again. Ore and ape, returned to mother planet's embrace.

A goblin, or a member of a goblin civ? Bug, yeah, but possibly different bugs.

This looks a heck of a lot like an attribution error on the game's part. I wonder if this is at the root of all the identity issues-Events being given the wrong IDs, resulting, in most cases, in "An unknown creature."

At least some unknown creature events are perfectly reasonable results of the creature being culled because of not being an important hist fig (and the corresponding world gen flag being set).

Except when they're on a world without cull unimportant histfigs, and indeed are the player controlled unit informing someone of things they did right in front of their own eyes.
