Dwarf in a cage trap.
« on: November 29, 2011, 07:55:13 pm »
ok, I did a search for this, and found nothing like it.
I was recently ambushed by a goblin crossbow team. one arrow hit a miner in the leg, chipping the bone, causing him to collapse while standing over a cage trep. he somehow got stuck in it (it came up saying 'Dwarf Cage' and everything) and I had to release him by building a cage and placing a lever to open it. he promptly went to hospital and had his leg fixed.

is it a bug that an unconcious dwarf can set off your fort's traps or intentional?

Any stunned creature sets off a trap, even if [TRAPAVOID] if I recall correctly.

Intentional.

Makes sense if you don't think about it.

Traps work on unconcious dwarves. I had a cyclops strangle a swordmaster who happened to be standing on a trap with 10 steel blades, turned him into salsa.

More like carpaccio, if you think about it.

You'd have to be pretty ninja to not fall into a trap when your unconscious body lands on it.

By the way, be sure to release your caged dwarves. They can starve in there if your other dwarves aren't nice.

Never had a bat massacre people with an axe before.
EDIT2: Oh god, the bat has got a title now.

@ OP: Don't forget to let your little captive out of the cage so he can get medical treatment. Also, food and drink because those are kind of important too.

I didn't see anything about it when I first skimmed the thread, so I just thought I'd make sure.
