Bee stings.
« on: February 18, 2011, 03:29:39 am »

So I haven't DLed the new version yet, but I'm wondering - when and why do bees sting, do your dwarves get an unhappy thought from it or die, and does it show up in the combat log?

It shows up in the announcements, 'urist mcbeekeeper has been stung by a honeybee' or somesuch.

They seem to have a small chance to sting when dwarves are near them. When I had 5 hives, my beekeeper never got stung but now that I have 30 he gets stung once or twice every time he visits them.

I never checked for an unhappy thought and he has never died yet. I don't think dwarfs have specific allergies yet either so I don't think any dwarf will die from it.
