Baby born, mother leaves it to die.
« on: July 08, 2008, 07:59:54 pm »

So, I was reclaiming a fort. Along the edge of the map, my glassworker from the previous fort was standing on a cliff. There was no way down but falling. Not long into the fort, less than a season, she has a kid. So, the kid is counted as a unit  from the fort, the glassmaker stays marked as a member of a different fort. The glassmaker stays on the same spot on her cliff, the baby wanders around on the cliff, I go away for a bit and then get a message: Urist mcbaby has drowned! I look around, and he's fallen into the sea. Now, the glassmaker obviously didn't do shit, why not? I figure it's because she wasn't considered part of the fort. Anyone else have this problem?

Also, I dropped some cats into my water tank, at LEAST a 6 z-level drop, into 7/7 water. There are 5 of them standing down there, they're unharmed and alive, shouldn't they be DEAD?

Yes they are a bunch of drunken unstable retards, but they're MY drunken unstable retards, and I will take care of them.
It could be worse, that cat could be alive.
