Body-Swapping
« on: February 18, 2018, 09:43:43 pm »

So I'm playing adventure mode again and I want to body swap into one of my dudes in my fortress after everybody died and only a few are left. I can't really get Mode Set to work so is there anything else I can try?

Try the mods forum.
If it's a DFhack feature, try that thread. Much more likely to get noticed by someone who actually knows than in here.
"Body-Swap" isn't a feature of Dwarf Fortress Adventurer Mode.

Ok Adventure mode issue. I managed to get mode set working. But despite my adventurers historical figure status it still bodyswaps to random animals. I figured out a solution.

Change to arena mode
Get out of the animal
Change into the adventurer continue as normal.

But I'm at a different site and now I can't retire. Whats the issue now?

that doesn't set your adventurer party group/army which is needed for travel menu so the game gets confused.
which is why shonai_dweller said that.
you also probably should have did the Save technique which leaves you a save with the adventurer you wanted to play in case you get stuck as random animals from some weird reason the Body swap script doesnt work still you could savescum back,
