Caverns Without Mud
« on: April 22, 2010, 10:13:16 pm »
Should these exist? I'm asking because I just genned a new world and placed a fortress, and upon breaching the caverns, I discovered that there was no mud anywhere. This is completely unlike any of my other fortresses have ever been, and I'm wondering whether this is normal, or whether I've mucked things up somehow with my modding.

I had a similar situation once, but I believe it was in a reclaim fortress.

Visiting an abandoned fortress with an adventurer also seems to strip the mud out of the caverns.

I think the process of abandoning de-muds the caves. Visiting an old fortress with an adventurer, the caverns are clean in the square the fort occupied, and muddied outside it. This is a bit irritating if you're looking to get some farming done. It's probably a good idea to have a water source and build farms you can irrigate again.

Hmmm, hey, what about other muddied spots? Do they dissapear when you visit the fort with an adventurer? I mean like when you dump some mud on soil or rock or whatever.

Sounds like something I should go test out.

Okay, just checked in adv mode and it does clear ALL mud, not just the cavern mud.
