Tomb question.
« on: May 14, 2008, 06:13:00 am »

Simple question - is it possible to bury a dwarf in tomb made AFTER his death or the best I can do is set up a burial-enabled coffin inside of a room and pretent it's a tomb? So far I found out I cant assing the tomb to dead dwarves, and set up one tomb without assigning nobody but no burial jobs popped up... yet.

Sorry mate.  You can only assign tombs to those who are still living.  The dead don't give a damn.

You could deassign it as a tomb and make it an ordinary burial receptacle instead and if there aren't any other dead dwarves around he'll get buried there

This'll have to do then. A bit less stylish than proper entombing but oh well  :)

Don't worry- dwarfs only need tombs when their alive!
