"The Administrator is caught in a burst of steam!"
« on: February 20, 2015, 08:18:27 pm »

Hi, I'm kinda new to the game, and a mountain titan attacked my fort. After my Sword Masters obliterated it, I saw "The Administrator is caught in a burst of steam!" in the combat log. Who is the Administrator?

One of your dwarves has a profession of 'administrator', and got caught in the blast when the mountain titan (Assuming it was steam or whatever) happened to die. That least, that's what i'm guessing.

Military dorfs with high observer skill become administrators.

Following from that, after slaying the titan your swordmaster reverted to civilian, like dwarves do breifly after completing an order. Thus he was called "administrator" (his civilian profession) when he got hit with the steam immediately after killing the titan. At least that's my guess.

Oh, OK. Thanks.
