My traps dosent work.
« on: October 22, 2009, 05:59:07 pm »

Really odd.

It's orc mod and mayday sprites.

Really annoying since they are just standing on my traps.



The walls are the orcs.

Its because they have TRAPAVOID.

Good planning with the moat though.

Orcs ignore traps.

If they didn't, it'd hardly be a challenge, would it?

They do not, however, ignore drowning chambers.

Also, you can manufacture vomit at a smelter.  Subsequently removing the smelter spews vomit over a surprising area.

Anyone is affected by a trap if they're knocked by a cave-in, or webbed. Adds a non-reloadable step, but it is possible.

Be very careful with webbing over traps.
Your dwarves will then trigger them too.
A weaver can disarm a webbed trap though, by collecting the webs.

If you don't mind me prying, what exactly is the nature of your megaproject such that you feel you need orcs in the world, but at the same time want the orcs to be trivial to take out?
