No shops?
« on: February 13, 2011, 12:52:27 am »

I've been a fortress mode veteran for a while, but I recently decided to try the adventurer mode without just doing it to kill wildlife. In every world I've been in, I see no buildings other than generic ones stuffed with large amounts of random people, no shops, mead halls, multi-story buildings, or roads are anywhere to be found. I've checked every sort of settlement, and I've also noticed a lack of castles, forest retreats, goblin towers, and mountainhomes.

I *think* the current version is bugged.
You can still find shops though, look for yellow boxes on the map.

There are no shops in .18. Nor are there dwarf or elf settlements, or goblin towers. If you want to get quests from dwarves and elves currently you have to mod in worldgen to get dwarves and elves in cities, and if you want good equipment as a dwarf you really have to make a fort first and go raid it for gear.

Shops are in towns ('+' on the large-scale map), in the parts of the town where you can see yellow blocks on the travel map. Shops have a sign next to the door showing what kind of shop it is.

Yep, it's definitely bugged. By the way, does this affect goblin sieges also? Because I have yet to get so much as a snatcher in this version.
