Utility to end sieges?
« on: July 30, 2011, 01:16:19 am »
See title. Specifically, I used Runesmith to blast a few invaders because I wasn't ready for them yet. Later now that I've destroyed (or at least forced into retreat) a siege, it still has the *SIEGE* label up top. What do?

If it helps, I'm using the Corrosion mod.

The siege tag does nothing, really. Just pretend it's not there.

Weird, I got caravans in my genesis fort when I was hiding like a sissy from the centaurs.

That won't remove the siege tag, only prevent further sieges.

The only way I've ever found to defeat the sticky siege tag is to wait for another one and defeat it "normally"

I've just vanquished another siege, but it's still not gone. This is incredibly disconcerting.

Are there flying enemies in the mod you are using? If so, some of them may have gotten stuck (as about 75% of all flying siegers do..) and could be holding the siege on perpetually.
If that is the case, simply removing their ability to fly will make them drop to the ground and likely limp off the map.
If that is not the case... I'm out of ideas. :o

Oh find one of the dead ones revive them and see if you could get him to run away, usually that would stop the siege.
