why are my dwarves getting wounded?
« on: May 15, 2008, 02:29:00 pm »

Over the last couple seasons, several of my non-military dwarves have suddenly received serious red and yellow injuries for no reason that I can tell. The military dwarves have gotten a few cuts and bruises sparring, but I haven't the faintest idea what could be making the civilians get hurt. There haven't been any cave-ins, there haven't been any monsters, the most threatening thing on the map is a herd of gorillas which never comes near my fort entrance. I don't have any dwarves hunting. The only traps I have are some stone fall traps in the entrance, some weapon traps in a passage down a cliff outside my fort, and some cage traps I recently installed to try to start a zoo. The only way I even realized they were getting hurt was when I was alerted that one fell unconscious.

What could possibly be going on here?

Tantrums?
Look at the moods of your dwarves; maybe they aren't so happy as you think.
anouncement spamming can hide tantrum anouncments, I think.

Oh, nevermind, I figured it out. They must have been beaten by the sheriff because I missed a mandate. But I had enough restraints available, so I don't know why he beat them instead of jailing them. Well, mystery... sort of solved.

A hammerer don't need no reason- he is the reason...

...then reason nobles rooms are fitted with waterproof doors and sprinkler systems...
