Hauling the drink barrel
« on: May 06, 2007, 10:11:00 pm »

I just got a cap of this with a silly sheriff that I decided to let live.  I seem to recall that the is a listed bug about a dwarf continuing to haul a drink barrel when going to rest.  The same happens with the sheriff when he goes to beat a supposed criminal.

He is already so slow compared to my dwarves it is silly.

I was watching him for a while just to make sure he didn't do any major damage.  He was chasing a dwarf that went to do some engraving on the far edge of the fortress.  By the time he got about half way there, the dwarf was headed back for a drink.  Seeing this perfectly agile dwarf running full speed down the hall the sheriff got out of the way.  Only a few seconds later he realized that was the guy he was looking to beat, and turned to try to catch up.  His target was already all the way back to the main beverages pile, before the sheriff made it half way back.

Anyhow right now I am trying to see how he is going to handle the punishments due to the dead.  I want to watch him go to thier coffins and cry over not being able to beat them.  Then I want to see him go over to the queens coffin and cry that he wasn't able to beat those that offended her (damn bitch didn't even have enough sense to walk into the river and made my dwarves bury her).  Then I will just drown him.

I really hope Toady thinks of some way to let us set dwarves proactively against other "friendly" targets.  I want my dwarves to get all Robin Hood on this evil Sheriff of Nottingham.

He truly is an evil fellow for carrying that wine barrel just so that no other dwarf can drink from it.

He must be a worshipper of Atlas.

We all know dwarves think the world of booze!  :D
