Any way to guarantee my evil ocean is evil enough?
« on: October 08, 2010, 06:35:53 pm »

I desperately want to embark on a location with zombie/skeletal whales, but for the life of me cannot seem to gen an ocean that has them. I've heard haunted regions more often have undead than terrifying - is this true? I know I've gotten undead in terrifying, so it can't be exclusively haunted... Is there any way to tell without embarking (or quickly upon embarking) if an ocean has undead in it? I keep embarking and just seeing like some camels on land...

I think they dont spawn in the same time as you embark, but prepare the swords/spears, they are going to spawn soon.

Haunted seems to be very much more likely to give you really horrible sea life, I've embarked on a number of Terrifying oceanside areas and gotten nothing at all in the water - I kinda think Terrifying has some empty setup information or whatever with respect to ocean.
