I keep on finding bare land when looking for goblin towers
« on: December 09, 2011, 09:51:16 am »

Hey guys,
As I am having a nice round of adventure mode, there is no way of killing hordes of goblins as their towers appear on the map, but not in the actual game, am I missing something.
By the way, I managed to kill a dragon with two strikes on the head, while having to fight a badger 50 times to kill him, funny coincidence.

Sadly, Goblin towers, Elven retreats and even NPC Dwarven Fortresses are not physically in the current version, existing only in Worldgen and on the map. :( If you really want to slaughter cities full of goblins, you can do so with a very simple bit of modding, going into Entity_Default in the raws, and giving them the [DEFAULT_SITE_TYPE:CITY] tag.
I think. Anyone else, feel free to correct me. :P And welcome to Bay12!

Thanks, I feared it was something like this. So how do i find Aragog, lawmaker of the goblins (think giant cave spider in intelligent)

If they have any hamlet/city in the world map, then check there. If none but the dark fortress, you have no luck at all in the current version.

For some reason, I read Aragog and thought of Shelob...

Probably because it's the name of the giant spider in Harry potter (Or really close)

I hope in later updates, there would be Dwarven/Elven/Goblin structures randomly generated upon world creation. That will make Adventure Mode twice as exciting.

As an official thing, without modding, of course.

There will be. It may not happen for a few year, but there will be.
