Noob Problem?
« on: May 23, 2007, 12:38:00 pm »

Ok, so I have read over the wiki and the forums for an hour or so looking for help but found none.  When I start a new fortress I'm not prompted on where I want to build it.  The first two fortresses I built were in heavily wooded calm regions.  I wanted to fight the undead so I tried to create a new fortress... it automatically just sticks me in a heavily wooded snowy place.  I try again and it doesn't prompt me this time either. I download the lite version of the game and move my save and log files to the new folder.  Same problem.  Just abandon everything?    :(

You can't have two fortresses running in the same world at the same time.  You have to either abandon/let die the one that's currently active before you can create another one in the same world.

You can always create another world if you want to play multiple fortresses though.

You need to choose to prepare for the journey carefully, instead of play now, and then tab through the option screens there to get to the location selection.

Thanks
