releasing creatures from caves endless loop
« on: February 06, 2021, 12:05:19 am »
I had a few peaceful plump helmet men from my caverns come up to the surface to check things out and two of them got caught in my cage traps. I have installed the cages elsewhere and unassigned the plump helmet men from them, but all my dwarves do are bring over other cages to refill the traps and move the PHM cages to the side, with the PHM still in them. How do I release peaceful creatures from cages without resorting to levers?

Assigning them to a pit zone is probably the easiest.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

A wizard has turned you into a wagon. This was inevitable (Y/y)?

Thanks! I've never used a pit zone before, but I'm going to give it a shot.
