Civilization Screen
« on: May 01, 2010, 05:52:34 pm »

What does the civilization screen while playing fortress mode mean (not the embark screen, but the actual in-game press-c screen)? Currently it shows dwarves (me, I presume) and goblins, but I don't see any goblin structures within my embark area (one of them did make off with a child, though happily no-one seems to mind. The sibling has been ecstatic lately.)

These are the civs your fortress "knows" about; the ones that will trade with and/or attack the fortress. They're not necessarily on-site (in fact, they're mostly not), but they can reach it.
