Has this happened to anyone? One of my old forts had a HFS chamber with water channels, instead of magma. It also had fishes "swimming" on the ground in there. Some kinda glitch. Was it because it was sorta near a brook? (not on the same Z-level but still near the thing.)


And my game is modded but its just a few new creatures and smelter operations (Free Adamantine, wood, charcoal etc.). Nothing that should affect the water.

I think it's because you got frog-flavored HFS. There's tentacle demon HFS, fire demon HFS, and frog demon HFS. Frog demon HFS comes with water.

[612DwarfAvenue]

There weren't any frog demons in there. AFAIK. And it was weird with the fish just moving on the ground without dieing

Also should i have put this in bug reports?

And i'm on the latest version (0.28.181.40d)

[Boogerman]

It's no bug. It's normal. Leave the chamber open, see what comes out.

Unfortunately. I had to abandon cuz of tantrum spiral caused by losses in a siege. These days, the creatures i play as breathe dragonfire and are invincible in almost every way. And have [SPEED:0]. And a bunch of other things.

I believe it is customary to mark all of these as spoilers, aye?

And yes, water indicates frog demons.  Demons start stealthed, if you didn't know already.

This disappoints me.

 every hfs ive found has had both water and magma in several little pools, and one did have a whole lot of mysterious drowning fish all over the floor, as well as the normal traumatized elves and humans and whatnot. all their ears and noses were cut off the last time i had a careful look.... pretty strange.

also, ive had hfs which from my fuzzy memory contained only magma that spewed out a whole tonne of frog demons. in that fort i had a stupidly big web of mining tunnels filled with all my nobles tombs in the adamantium veins. and half my fort was in those tunnels hauling the ore back to my forges, along with all the pet cats who were in there hunting spiders. that was a totally epic trying to corner all the stealthed demons in the maze of single square passages and trying to stop them reaching the fort proper, but the constant pausing with "horrors! demons in the deep!" as each new frog demon revealed itself drove me mental. tantrum spiral was quite acute among the nobles due to loss of pet cats (mayor had 30) and despoiled burial chambers. twas quite fun.

the fish going on land is probably ''Lungfish'' which are amphibious and if you got a frog demon pit you should just be happy. the demons comes when the chamber has been open for awhile i dont think the demons come if you seal it of, and i mean with a wall not a door as they can destroy them

Even so, with all this stuff, i can design effective Elf killing chambers. I hope the elves delcare war on me soon, i wanna burn them darnit!

And maybe the Humans, just for fun. Not the Dwarves though. I stay on good terms with the Dwarves.

im pretty sure that dwarves will never siege you, no matter how mean you are. this may only be when you are playing dwarves though. do you actually get traders from your race coming to visit? and also, would not your new impossible to kill species have genocided the world during generation?

Yes, i get traders from my creatures.

I didn't say impossible to kill. And i set their ethics and personality tags so they dont just kill for the heck of it. If they did then there wouldn't be any gobbos to drop into an underground river and flush into the

HFS pits

i wonder if that's normal?

 Not 100% sure but I think spirits of fire are so hot they cause creatures near them to burst into flames. The prisoners were probably instantly incinerated by the spirits of fire coming out of the pits, and the huge cloud of flame was from them burning up.
