Finding the Fights
« on: March 03, 2010, 06:57:42 pm »

I'm playing adventure mode, and just showed up in an elf territory.  I immediately started getting announcements about how a Unicorn was killing everything.  Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to find this Unicorn.  Every now and then I see Elves running, and I try following them, but I usually lose them.  Besides, I don't know if they're running toward the fight or away from it.
Is there any quick way to find out where these fights are going on?

I just ripped open a lions throat by biting it. Who's the lion now, bitch!

Sadly, no.  I believe in the next version Toady has made it so you won't be able to see/hear actions taken outside your area of visibility or something.  Not entirely sure though.  For now, just run around and hope for the best!

I think you can use programs like dwarf therapist to see where it's happening, but in vanilla you're just screwed.
