Wounded Dwarf Trouble
« on: October 20, 2010, 08:30:53 pm »

Right, so first off, I'm new to DF. This much may become obvious further \/ that way.

A couple game months ago, a one of my dwarves got himself injured in combat with a troglodyte. Nothing serious, just a few yellow, light wounds. So my dwarf went into the hospital zone, and sat down...unconscious...

He has been like that since, and another dwarf has joined him. They are both unconscious, no injured body parts, nothing I can see, but they refuse to wake up. Advice for a noob please?

Did you assign someone to be a doctor? Does the doctor have time to look at patient, does the doctor have any health care options enabled?

Even if they are, in fact, all the way healed, if they've EVER had significant enough injuries to visit the hospital for, they will go to the hospital when it is made, awaiting an "all clear" diagnosis.

All you've got to do is turn on someone's "diagnosis" labor, preferrably turn off all their other labors, then they will sooner or later run over and diagnose them, and if anything actually is wrong, will order their treatment.

Not just turn on the diagnosis he has to appoint a chief medical dwarf.

One of the dwarfs walked in front of Thor to get a better view of the prye, and Thor kicked him irritably into the middle of the flames, which made Thor feel slightly better and made all the dwarfs feel much worse.

I think they can also be misdiagnosed and set to be bedridden forever.

And then it's pretty much a normal fortress from then on.
I find the idea of a normal fortress amusing.
