After catastrophes.
« on: August 27, 2019, 06:47:52 pm »
Quick question:

Do population requirements work like one-time switches or does the game check occasionally. For example, after getting 20 dwarves, strange moods can start happening. If some catastrophe drops you back below 20, does that switch turn off or remain on?

Ditto ditto for sieges. Once you hit 80+ pop, the goblins'll keep right on coming until either they're dead or you are!

Doesn't matter, the remaining 20 will probably go berserk and stuff.
