I noticed when I fire at a neutral target in adventure mode that every shot misses.  Same with throwing.  How can I target the wildlife without walking up to it a smashing it with my bow?

Two things:

Firstly, this should be in the Adventurer Mode section.

Secondly, it's impossible to hit a neutral target with a ranged weapon. Wait for night, sneak into someone's bedroom and break all their bones while they sleep for a safe, painless (for you, anyway) method of making everyone in town a hostile.

Then watch as you are shot to death by the guards!

If you look at the forum name, it's called gameplay questions.  If you look at the adventurer forum, it's called adventurer mode discussion. 

I stand by my intentional choice of forum.

Have a look at the topic title.

firing at friendlies in adventure mode

Move it to Adventure Mode subforum, nao.

Since the thread is effectively derailed anyway, I'll perpetuate the problem.  Here's a post of mine from some time ago.  Seems to me all questions belong here while all not-questions belong on the discussion boards.

I want to point out we have a DF Gameplay Questions forum, a Dwarf Fortress Mode forum, AND an Adventure Mode forum.  So...maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see anything that says what differentiates Gameplay from the others.  As I see it, questions on any mode should fit here?  Else, what am I missing?

Gameplay
"Do you need help playing Dwarf Fortress? Confused about some aspect of the game? Use this forum."
Fortress Mode
"Want to discuss the Dwarf Fortress mode of Slaves to Armok II: Dwarf Fortress? This is the forum for you."
Adventure Mode
"If you want to discuss playing an Adventurer in Slaves to Armok II: Dwarf Fortress, this is the place."

I really want to know where this idea that questions don't belong on the general questions board come from...

I'm with Stargrasper, Ruttiger, and Bauglir on this one. This isn't "Dwarf Mode Gameplay Questions" this is "Dwarf Fortress Gameplay Questions". Adventure Mode is a part of Dwarf Fortress, as is Dwarf Mode.

If this forum is to be "Dwarf Fortress Mode" specific, why is there a seperate "Fortress Mode" forum?

To make trolling easier.

The question is answered though, and I miss the opportunity to shoot anyone too, because sometimes it's too dangerous to melee as a crossbowman .
