I know this, defeating a later siege doesn't work. I had an early siege I wasn't prepared to deal with so I tested out the handy Genocide Button on it. Since then, I've defeated about 5 ambushes and 2 sieges. I'm still flagged as Siege. I'm contemplating going as long as possible with this fortress, locking everything away in locked rooms and abandoning.

Some people have had luck with killing all but one with runesmith, and then making the last one a coward so it runs away.

would teleporting everything into lava cause the perpetual siege mode as well? cause i dont want to screw up another fortress, by killing stuff using runesmith if possible.

If you don't want to deal with invasions, why don't you just turn them off in the init?  You can turn them back on later if you want them back...

(Don't get me wrong, that particular ability of Runesmith amuses me greatly, just curious)

# Linux: to follow

Huh? Didn't understand this. Is there any linux version of runesmith available?

its not that i dont want invasions its just that i want to be able to kill the goblins the way i want to , and killing the building destroyer ones outright with runesmith or teleporting them into lava  is usually a lot easier than trying to design a complicated trap that only works when there are no building destroyer tagged monsters around.

so yea, before i try the teleport into lava way, does anyone know if tinkering with anything on an invader will cause the perpetual siege mode?

If you only want to kill individuals, and want to do it in a Dwarfy way, why not spawn pools of Magma under the feet if the offenders with DFhack?

because doing this tend to create pathing issues... the last time i spawned magma i got permanent inaccessible spots that the dwarves cant build on or path through.  actually spawning water with dwarf hack does this as well, so i dont do it anymore

If water causes a pathing issue.. just spawn a single layer of water and when it evaporates the pathing issue will be fixed.

well from what I read if there no way a siege can run away perpetual siege mode is on. though I never play that far in dwarf fort to reach that to full around in so Idunno.
still dumping people in magma kinda the hard long and boring way when you could simply change the Civ to yours and remove the invader tags on one goblin archer then wait for them to retaliate and swap back they should go ape shit and start a loyalty crusade if you pull this off in the main gate of the fort you can pool in major carnage with out setting off a single trap or waking the guards. hopefully this should trigger the end siege code that some how bypass when you runesnuff.

Hi i have a problem whit Runesmith

when i start it  i get a error
saying:this application has failed to start because the applicationn configuration is incorrest. reinstalling the application may fix the problem

i had the same error for Stonesense but afther installing VC2005 redists it when away
i hoped for the same  fix at Runesmith but no luck 
is there anything els i need to install so it will work
i have a  just fresh copy of win XP sp2  and did not instal anything els (but VC2005 redists, and the new LNP)

[MaximumZero]

Have you tried a fresh Memory.xml? You can get that from the Stonesense and dfHack threads.

In case it matters - I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.

:S that's a new one. Well it will be a while until I can do anything, still assembling furniture.

Damn you real life, always stealing away our Dwarf Fortress genius'.
