[DwarfMan69]

I was playing adventure mode, murdering elves and the like, without a scratch so far, besides a broken nail, when suddenly an arrow rips off part of my left ear. I succeed in killing the elves before retreating... but I couldn't do anything to stop the bleeding. So I tried to sleep it off. Bad idea, I woke up dead.

Was I an unfortunate adventurer born with hemophilia or has Toady not introduced platelets yet?

Anyways, Good night sweet princess. You had such great potential.

[Nikov]

Well duh, you laid down with a bleeding head wound. You're supposed to elevate the wound and apply direct pressure.

[DwarfMan69]

Well duh, you laid down with a bleeding head wound. You're supposed to elevate the wound and apply direct pressure.

But I can't do that in adventure mode...

And it was only some red skin damage.

[Karlito]

You should have just [T]raveled, that insta-heals you.

[Hurion]

You can't travel while bleeding.

[DamnedChoir]

I actually had a similar problem to this with a missing toe...

You can't travel while bleeding, and bleeding doesn't seem to stop. I do hope soon we get the capability to do things like set our own wounds and cook food in Adv Mode.

My adventurer cut his fingertip and died. I'm going to be very wary of any sharp bits of paper I see from now on.

[Firehound]

Actually....T ravel does not insta heal anything that needs doctoring. If it's minor such as bruising(like a bruised lung from being hammered) T ravel will fix it... if it's a crossbow bolt through a cheek, you'll have it till it gets fixed.

[vins]

We should be able to heal our wounds.

[Footkerchief]

I've been noticing that wounds to the head, fingers, and toes don't properly heal or stop bleeding.  More testing's needed though.

[goffrie]

My cheek was cut open, and I eventually bled to death.

[Hurion]

I bet the whole melting phenomenon is linked to this. I keep reading that extremities are the parts that start melting first, and here we have extremities that wont stop bleeding.

[Firehound]

Actually, the cheek wound stopped bleeding just fine for me... it just didn't heal up. I attributed it to the new cheek peircing Urist McGobbobane received

[h3lblad3]

I just survived a mortal wound by sleeping.

My lungs were blue on the list and I went to sleep and when I woke up they were fixed!
When the Mortal Wound identifier popped up, I figured I'd honour my adventurer by letting him die in his sleep.

He survived.

I guess that healing is just totally wonky as it is.

[Aspgren]

I guess that healing is just totally wonky as it is.

Yeah. In DF mode one of my dorfs was mauled by antmen wielding spears. They had 2 spears each and wailed on him like the fist of north star.

Red -EVERYTHING- broken legs and infections and a couple of blowdarts with GCS poison in his rear for good measure... but once they got him to a bed, diagnosed him and washed him off... they had to cancel the treatment because he healed on his own accord and went about his business as usual. Scarred everywhere.

... other dwarves like to stay in bed for as long as possible.
