Training Weapons
« on: January 30, 2011, 10:32:24 am »

Query - Since the wiki doesn't explain it 100% and I'd rather be certain.

If I set my squad to use Individual Choice weapons, and I set them to train, will they grab training weapons automatically? Or are they likely to grab my blue-coloured weapons and slice off pieces of each other?

they will likely grab your blue weapons and train properly.

EDIT: they are blue? your eyes have issues or your monitor need fixing?

They're just made of a spoiler material is all.

So , is there a nice , safe and simple way I can ensure that they don't rip holes in each other, while still being prepared to go to war if something mean turns up?

no changes required, no worry. In latest versions of DF training dont cause injuries most of the time.

To get training injuries in 3.18 you'd have to designate your barracks on the roof of a tower without walls, and hope someone dodges down the side while sparring.
