Strange Moods
« on: December 01, 2009, 05:01:46 pm »
Is there anything about strange moods that isn't hard-coded? I would like them to be a bit more... dramatic. Like people throwing themselves into lava if melancholy instead of just starving to death all the time :S. cause thats really un-dwarfy.

No, strange moods and insanity are hardcoded, but luckily for you, melancholy creatures will try to throw themselves into water, magma, and indeed, open space anywhere. This can sometimes lead to rather pathetic leaps of a single z-level, no injuries, then the dwarf climbing back up 'till the die of thirst.

I've got a funny event where my melancholy craftsdwarf was jumping from 5z level tower... However there was a hunter sleeping, and he constanly landed on him (probably disturbing him). It was funny until hunter woke up and went away :(.
