[DONE] Help, please! Need to teleport someone - stuck in a hole.
« on: October 30, 2008, 10:18:21 pm »
Hi there.

Is there a way to teleport my adventurer?

I'm stuck on a site, and "can't Travel until I leave".

Unfortunately, I'm playing in a really old world and there's been some kind of bug caused by updates... the whole site is sunken down 2 z-levels lower than the rest of the world, and so has a neat square wall all around it.  No being able to climb this wall means no travelling... even though I've killed every living thing on site and there's nobody to challenge me over sneaking up on their guards and bashing them on the head while they were sleeping.

I'd really rather not lose this adventurer to a bug, as she's still got unfinished business to attend to.

Have I any hope of saving her?  Either by forcing a Travel... or moving her about 2 squares over the border of the weird depression in the ground, so that I can walk away.

If there is a way to do it (for example using the thing that teleports people in fortress mode, whatever it is) could someone post up Easy For An Idiot To Follow instructions please?  I'd be most grateful.

Thanks!

Dwarf Companion works in Adventure mode as well.

I was hoping that someone was going to say that! ;D

EDIT:  and I've gotten it working.  Glad that the wiki's back up, as ever it's invaluable. :)


(this really will mean a lot to me... now that the next update will be save-breaking, I've gone back to revisit my retired hereos from ages ago - most of which had party-members that keep passing out from pain, so i was holding off playing them until scarring was in.  Getting to give everyone a proper heroic death is important!)

Just don't use it to resurrect an adventurer after they've fallen into a chasm.  I tried a couple times.  Once, DF crashed.  The second time, I somehow gained control of a goblin on the map.

That was weird.
