deadly rain...
« on: April 01, 2010, 03:54:38 pm »

well, just got the new version and had a nice fortress starting up, when suddenly...

"it has started raining"

no big deal, except right after this, my dogs outside start dying. then any of my dwarves outside start dying. more precisely, they bleed to death.

when the rain ended, i had two out of the original 7 left. then i got 9 migrants. hooray!

just got to get them  to stay inside

is this the new version?

I wonder if water has been made into a material now... and if so... whether getting "pelted" by a bunch of water killed them o.O

Instead of murky pools of water, we get congealing pools of blood!

Are you guys getting the rain just installing the new version over the old version?

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

I've had it rain once in my new fort, no deaths but I didn't see if anybody was outside.

Just out of curiosity, what DOES Dwarf Fortress smell like?
Death, Booze, and Insanity.
Ladders are absolutely essential for one reason and one reason only:

I think Murder Rain is going to be my favourite bug for this release. Partly because it is wacky. But mostly because I haven't encountered it yet.
