Gorlak won't drink!
« on: April 05, 2011, 01:27:31 pm »

He just blinks a thirsty blue arrow--tried penning him in a booze stockpile, a room with a ramp to some water, a room perpetually running with water.  So far nothing.  Am I facing one more dead gorlak (armok forbid) or is there options I could try?

First - how did you get a Gorlak that needs to drink?  I assume though modding, since they're not tamable by default.

If he's like a tigerman, he needs a water source zone that is over fresh water.  Tigermen won't drink booze, won't use a well, won't drink salt water, and seem to need a water source zone in order to drink.

Why do you need so many Gorlaks anyway?  :-\

I keep just the one, for the conversation, as the raws suggest, also I just gave pretty much everything that dwells below the [pet] tag
