My haunted location sucks
« on: September 08, 2009, 04:11:21 pm »

There was just ONE werewolf, he died, and now I only get regular fauna.

Is there any way to enhace locations after starting the game? IE: editing in more creatures, whatnot? Or will I have to imagine that there are fell creatures stalking outside?

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

Look in the werewolves' raws and change [POPULATION_NUMBER:10:20] to [POPULATION_NUMBER:100:500]

You'll be swimming in werewolves. Well, more like being torn to shreds by them, but still.

Also change [CLUSTER_NUMBER] to something bigger. Or you could change ALL creatures to appear in EVERY biome like I did. I see 25 Werewolves in a 'Wilderness' spot.

Kill the current fauna, new ones will spawn.

I used to do the military challenge (embark with 7 military dwarves with weapons but no supplies) in evil biomes. Usually I ended up hunting the evil life from the region until I ended up with something benign so I can do basic scavenging and woodcutting tasks. But the reverse is just as true, if you want new wildlife kill the old ones.

Really? I was under the impression that once it was dead it was gone. AKA - depletion via hunting.
