Tantrum spiralling
« on: August 25, 2018, 04:30:19 am »
Hey guys I've been away from the game for quite a long time now and I remember when Discipline was introduced it was a hassle to get used to it.

But now that I came back I started a new fort and lost it to tantrum spiralling. My bad, I'd left corpses lying around, that's how you learn. Huge and out of the way refuse stockpiles next time.

But I did that now and I'm having the exact same problem. Once they get a little stressed they go all the way, then they start fist fights or kill themselves or whatever.

Also after I build a library and temples and so on, the dwarves start to miss their family and friends, how can I solve that? They used to all hang out in the same place.

They get stressed from working too much and not enough, civilians want to train their martial skills but any form of combat stresses them out. This really sucks.

Any tips?

Also, should I have a Captain of the guard and punish criminals or leave them be? The captains always ends up stressed out as well.

Check out this "Stress & Pysche: 44.11+" thread.

I think some dwarfs are going to crack no matter what, and you just need to roll with it and get them out of the way of the other dwarfs.

There is something to be said about, if the stakes are as high, maybe reconsider your certitudes. One has to be aggressively allistic to feel entitled to be able to trust. But it won't happen to me, my bit doesn't count etc etc... Just saying, after my recent experiences I couldn't trust the public if I wanted to. People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.
