I didn't think I had yellow sand...
« on: June 12, 2010, 09:09:05 pm »

Hmm, maybe it's a bug

*Goes to loo K at it*

...

WHY?!

Turns out the area around my wells is covered in Dwarf Pus.  Somehow, this made me sicker then any other gore in other games.  So a commendation on toady's immersion, a reprimand for the dwarf pus covered water cooler.

Also, how often does the chief medical dwarf check on his patients?  I had a guy succumb to infection (Megaproject mishap) and it never showed infection in the health screen, he was only diagnosed once, anyway to request a diagnosis?  (The other dwarves were busy bench pressing a patient instead of putting him in traction)

Only in dwarven culture is alcohol poisoning a death worthed investigating, while being impaled through several toes, a eye, and a thumb from a spiraling water[3] is not.  Because everyone knows, the only way a dwarf could get alcohol poisoning is if someone put poison into the alcohol.

Sounds like they're washing the pus off at the well.

Is there a way to separate cleaning zones and drinking zones?

Not yet and I think we need this urgently.

I really want that one as a "when". I want "grubs", and "virgin woman" to turn into a dragon. and monkey children to suddenly sprout wings. And I want the Dwarven Mutant Academy to only gain their powers upon reaching puberty. I also have a whole host of odd creatures that only make sense if I divide them into children and adults.

Also, tadpoles.

They grab a bucket, fill it, then wash off the patient, in the hospital.  I'm clueless how it got there unless he decided it twas just a flesh wound.

Possibly your dwarves handling the patient get pus on themselves, and then go wash it off at the well. Due to the fluid multiplication bug, you soon have a well surrounded by deep pools of replicated dwarf pus.
