[40d] Ready to leave? you guys run upstairs and kill his farm animals first.
« on: October 05, 2008, 07:15:53 pm »
The hell is going on? every caravan I get that has guards seems to have a grudge against my tame animals now! guards wander away from my depot, into my courtyard and randomly start murdering my tame animals! They wait till I get the message that the caravan is leaving, then one guard runs upstairs to my enclosed courtyard, picks an animal and starts trying to kill it! admittedly they only seem to go after mole dogs and giant olms, but why? they start the fights and the animals are tame, as well as not having names (Stray giant olm (tame, stray naked mole dog (tame) etcetera). The courtyard is enclosed, so they aren't trying to leave through there.

I'm guessing it's something Toady forgot about when he made feature critters tameable a little while back.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Odd..... the animals go from being tame to being hostile in the unit list, seemingly at random. They don't bother my dwarves though.

Its partly because they're "local" creatures, i'd guess.
