Friendly Ant Drone Man - How can you kill it.
« on: April 27, 2010, 12:01:36 pm »

Recently, a friend ant drone man as invaded my fortress and wanders around. Killing a forgotten beast gives him no right to steal my soap! I wish to kill him, but the fact hes friendly is really killing that idea.



And to add insult to inury, he constantly names his spear, zooming in on his location and pausing the game.

I find this hilarious, let him live in your fortress. Come on. This is kinda rare(I think, im new). Let him get respected by your dwarfs. Or you can just put a floodgate when he enters a small empty room. Kinda hard. But i don't know.

Hilarious however  :D

Hilarious for everyone but me.  :)

I would love you him to live in my fortress. The problem is that he renames his spear every week. Is there a way I can take away his spear.

You can change the announcements settings in one of the INIs so that it doesn't zoom and pause every time at least.

The solution starts with "M" and ends with "agma".

Put some soap out as bait, then magma him when he flies down to steal it?

Hes done with soap now, he was caught in a snow storm and is now clean.

How high is he? Does he move about, or stay in one spot? Could you build a box around him and fill it with something unpleasant?

Does he go through not-pet passable doors? if not lock him in any room possible, build a cage that is holding a dangerous creature and let them figh it out? even if the ant wins he will most likely bleed out

Success.

Not very high, and holding steady. I'm going to wait until some invader kills him.  Why should I deny such a gift from the enemy?

Thanks for all the feedback.

What you need to do is "recruit" him into the army. Bait some soap by the archery range.

Third one of these that I have seen in 2 days... of course, the original one, Asax, is probably the coolest.

Fixed for great justice.

Yes. Clearly a bug that ought to be fixed in the future, but exploit it in the meantime.
