Author Topic: [40d11_linux] Enemy dwarves get graves, can't do anything with cages  (Read 469 times)

So, I genned a world where dwarves show up with goblins when they ambush/siege.  And now, these enemy dwarves occupy my graves, and I can't do anything with them caged besides chasm the cage they're in.  I didn't see this in the bug list (except, perhaps, one being unable to free dwarves placed in cages).

The game is unmodified.

The save is uploaded here if you wish to see for yourself: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=965
I even have a caged enemy dwarf if you'd like to chasm him and see him take up a coffin.  Fun stuff.

All dwarves are united in death.

As for the cage thing, what else did you expect to be able to do with the dwarf in it? Can you not build the cage?

Perhaps feed him to my pet giant cave spider?

You could do that by building the cage, linking it to a lever, and pulling the lever (assuming you can build the cage, which you didn't say one way or another if you could). Or by designating a pit above the spider's home and pitting the dwarf into it.
