Link between combat hardening and stress
« on: January 07, 2023, 12:11:38 pm »

Does anyone know how those two are related ?
I've read somewhere that the state "doesn't really care about anything anymore" was now only affecting the reaction to seeing corpses, but I'm not sure about this.
In my fort most of my dwarves gained this trait really fast, and after that I had a really hard time getting one stressed, even after a lot of traumas.

Even after they got stressed, none of them had any kind of breakdown until reaching the state "haggard". And now that they are haggard they are throwing tantrums after tantrums and depressions after depressions non-stop.
I don't have much experience with the previous two or three versions of the game, so i'm not sure it is normal behavior.

Do you think the combat hardening affects the way stress is gained or I am misunderstanding something ?
