Elves don't unload goods.
« on: October 22, 2009, 04:18:57 pm »

Alright, so I've maintained a fortress for a while now and the only civilizations that ever come to trade with me are the Dwarfs and the Elves. Supposedly.

So far, every time the Elves have come, they walk up to my depot and proceed to unload their goods. However, nothing ever appears in the depot. I've never encountered a problem like this before, and I haven't made any changes to the game files since my last fortress where this was not an issue. Is it possible that they simply are not producing anything and expect a handout?

I swear if those fruitcakes try to pull this off again I'm going to use them for target practice.

Aye, we are Armok, god of blood, evil, villager gutting, fortress building, legend making and elf thongs.

It sounds like a bug.

And this is how tinned food was invented.
Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

Your Elves are bastards. Apply ballista ammunition, that'll solve it.
