Weird embark...
« on: March 19, 2011, 07:19:33 pm »



I didn't even get a wagon. It's just a one-tile space with all of my stuff on it...

That happens if there's no room to place the wagon.  It seems that the wagon is restricted to a certain Z level, and on this embark, that Z was a single ramp tile, so instead of trying to fit an entire wagon, it just dumped the stuff.

But, I checked my units screen, and apparently I've got a bunch of panda women on my embark area. Can I train these *fine* ladies like tigerfolk or are they just useless?

According to the raws, no.  You can [PET] them easily though.  They can speak and learn, so unless you [NO_EAT][NO_DRINK] them, they will starve, because they're made to only eat bamboo.  You can have a panda woman mayor though!

If you want to see this happen a lot, create a world with massive elevation variation and embark on tiles with max height cliffs. Seems to happen to me constantly when I go for such areas.
