Awakened Stone Ghosts
« on: December 11, 2016, 04:25:53 am »

First post on the forum, and it's a bit of a strange one. You see, I turned on The Earth Strikes Back! and I've been noticing something strange happening with the awakened stones and wyrms. They pop up and promptly catch a pick to the head, and don't make it much further than that. The atypical part of this is that they still get in my fortress as ghosts. I've had multiple forts before on several versions of this mod, and that has never happened. I also tried playing with just The Earth Strikes Back!, and didn't get that same problem. I can also assign them rooms, but they always go berserk, melancholic, or mad. Any ideas on how to stop this? I'd just ignore it, but some of them are howling and moaning spirits on account of the melancholy and madness.

Interesting.. Question do you also run the spirits from underneath or something like that.  Hungry spirits I think.  It's the mod where ghosts are created from the dead... I've not used it in a while, but it's supposed to make spirits from any mob killed on the map... that's the only mod I can think of that might be turning them into howling ghosts...

Oh, no. I always make sure that mod is off before I start up the game. It also seems to be only the awakened stones as well. Countless cave brutes and drunians have died under my fort, but the only ghosts are dead boulders.

Hmm interesting... that's a new oddity... I don't play with either mod.
