militia dwarf becomes diplomat
« on: December 19, 2017, 04:32:03 pm »

I sent a squad out to retrieve a slab. They were successful. Upon their entering the map one of the squad gained the noble position of "diplomat"

My civ is dead or dying and one of my dwarves had become king.

Does this mean that my returning dwarves will begin receiving titles? Like general, etc? I have never had any of the king's nobles activate before.

One of the dwarfs walked in front of Thor to get a better view of the prye, and Thor kicked him irritably into the middle of the flames, which made Thor feel slightly better and made all the dwarfs feel much worse.

Diplomat is just one of the positions you inherit as the mountain home.

This predates the artifact update and there shouldn't be any other "promotions"

The diplomat position never showed up in fort mode before this.

There are a lot of positions you "inherit" as the mtn home. None of them showed up before this. At least not since waaaay back when nobles migrated in.

The position only showed up when my squad came back.

The bahavior is odd. I agree there shouldn't be more promotions, but there should not have been any to begin with.

The positions may predate this release, but this is a new behavior.
