(40d) He ain't heavy, he's my brother
« on: July 04, 2009, 04:03:55 pm »

I abandoned a dwarf fortress specifically for an adventurer to find. He got there, looted a bit, and stumbled on a load of goblins. Yay! Fun!

Not so much. Turns out they don't fancy picking a fight. In fact, even when I systematically attacked every single one of them, none of them seemed willing to put up a fight. Even herbivores fight, but not goblins.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

maybe they're pansies...

i've heard of this problem in fortress mode before, with happy go friendly goblins hanging out - but it went with a siege of goblins.

maybe it's the character race you've allocated for adventurer mode??

Dwarf. Turns out I appear to be at peace with EVERYTHING in adventure mode except animals and quest monsters. I went into a goblin fortress and they wouldn't attack me, so I just started hacking. now it's like it should be. I'll have to do it to every bunch of gobbos I meet though.
