Wagon busts open on embark
« on: October 16, 2009, 12:46:10 am »
I embarked and turned up on the side of a mountain without enough room for a wagon. My wagon broke apart and left all my equipment and food (about 90 barrels!) strewn across the slopes.  Has anyone had this happen to them before?

Haha in that same fortress my "dwarf" liaison is an elf!  What's even more ironic is my civilization is at war with the elves too.

It has happened to me a couple of times that I've embarked on a "spire", one tile wide, one z-level above a plateau.No wagon and EVERYTHING else on one single tile. Not sure if that includes the three precious extra logs  :-\

I have not had the logs when I lost the wagon due to terrain on disembark.

I once though I had an Elven Liaison, but then it turned out the that Liaison for the Humans was an Elf.   :-\
