prevent liaison meeting until after traders depart
« on: July 22, 2014, 10:23:51 am »

Hiya,

Is there any way of preventing a liaison meeting?  Because I'm trying to run a generational fort, and need both initial migrant waves.  But every time my liaison comes, the meeting happens, he leaves, and I get no autumn migrants.  (I don't want to push the pop cap up, because I don't want any later waves.)

If software was real world, then it'd be something equivalent of hitting a nail with a hammer and having a building collapse on the other side of town.

Don't worry people, sometimes -moments occur

You should be able to lock your expedition leader away somewhere, if the liason can't get to him they can't have the meeting. I think?

Make sure the liaison can't get within 2 tiles of the expedition leader, even through walls.  That'll do it.  You could also put the expedition leader in a military squad and have him train a weapon in the barracks.
