Possible to export a caged zombie?
« on: February 14, 2012, 04:56:41 pm »
I've been trying to think of ways to proliferate the zombie virus outside of your fortress embark.  If I traded a caged zombie with a caravan (assuming this is even doable) I wonder how DF would track that zombie.  Do traded animals get let out of their cages ever, or do they just exist as a stored item shuffled about the world but never interacting with it in any way?

Because I WANT THAT ZOMBIE LET LOOSE ON ELVISH CIVILIZATION DAMMIT.

First thing first, it would require living world after worldgen. And it will not happen any time soon.

Dwarf Fortress - where the primary reason to prevent death of your citizens is that it makes them more annoying then they were in life.

Then likely spreading zombification will come down to adventure mode.
