Scattering Toggle
« on: March 04, 2008, 02:11:00 am »

I'm not sure how hard this would be to implement but I would like it if the object scatter was an option that could be toggled on/off in the INIT.

Basically, it just annoys me that when I abandon my fortress the piles of gold crafts in my deepest vaults end up lying around in the nearby forest while the barrels from my food stockpile end up in the mines and so on. Also, is there any real reason that an artefact cabinet could find itself on the roof of a tower?

The way scattering currently works doesn't make any sence, and I would much rather have it so that items don't scatter at all than having them scatter to the four corners of the map.

It's not a feature, as such. Just that item locations aren't stored.
