Stupid peasants claiming my militaries emergency scrambling rooms.

[Eduren]

though there are less beds in my fort than there are dwarves (62 total).. maybe there is something in that?

If you don't assign the beds to individuals, I found you only need roughly 40 beds for a 200-dwarf fort.

As a reminder, this will only work if the beds aren't designated as rooms or if they're placed in a barracks - if a room is designated from a bed, the first dwarf that decides to sleep on said bed will immediately claim the room.

Are you saying that I don't have to assign each and every dwarf in my fort to a bedroom, that they'll claim them on their own?

[2xMachina]

They do claim bedrooms on their own. I just built my bedroom complex, and they'll choose a room. They somehow leave some rooms empty (excess bedrooms), on some floors, but it's no big deal.

But if you like them take a specific room (say, your first 7 dwarfs), assign them.

Real life shows us the same - Ronald Reagan. ;-)

1. Cut out the political comments, that belongs on a different board. Last thing we need is a political flame war in the middle of a fairly humorous topic.

2. I've noticed my dwarves drinking from the stream instead of the booze stockpile as well, even though I have over 100 booze. It's possible that other dwarves are drinking from all the barrels, if you have 100 booze but it's really 4 barrels with 25 booze each only four dwarves can drink booze at a time. Any other thirsty dwarves will default to clean water (such as a river, stream, or well) if it's available.

im not sure if brain damage prevents skill ups

I have a dwarf who arrived during a tantrum spiral. He was attacked and had his lung punctured and recieved a concussion as well as broken arms. He healed pretty fast and has been in the fort for maybe 6-12 months in full health.

He has only 3 passing acquaintances and a pet. He seems unable to get friends, but he is a skilled flatterer and a competent negotiator, persuader, comedian, judge of intent and consoler.

I'm not 100 what to make of this.

I was so very happy when I discovered this. Then my face hurt for a while, mostly due to the *headdesk* from thinking about my previous 150df fort, and its rooms.

I'd like to amend this - cut out the specific political comments. Generic comments mocking politicians in general are acceptable; do not mock individuals.

Tax Collector: ADAMANTINE!

No, that's normal nobles, not brain-damaged ones. (The problem with most nobles is caused by inbreeding, not trauma. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.)

[Blargityblarg]

Doesn't your uncle being your daddy count as trauma, Count Dorku?

[JohnLukeG]

Gah, my dwarves just elected an immigrant peasant to be mayor the second he arrived on the site.

[Count Dorku]

I will concede that point.
