Yeah, I read the notice, but couldn't figure out how to post at the other site, either. Truly gifted interface design.

Thanks much, now at least I have a clue what to do, not that I know how to change my font in game. Or do I change the font somewhere else?

[Darkmere]

Easiest way is to replace your df folder > data > art > font.ttf with another font file. Backup the first one in case something goes wrong.

[Doom]

I just turned off truefont, worked fine.

Next problem, I'm having goblin sieges. But, the goblins don't move, they just stand there. I gave them a whole season to come to my fortress, but no dice.

Eventually, I got bored and sent my dwarves out to bash them...the goblins fight back, and are kills.

Now, I've got another siege, and, once again, the goblins don't move. Looking at the 'bug tracker' I don't see anything like this.

So, here I m going to the well once again: is there an easy fix to this, too?

Is your fortress accessible to the goblins? If you've created an impregnable fortress with walls, moats, locked doors (if they didn't bring trolls or other building destroyers) then the goblin pathfinding basically decides it can't reach your fortress and will instead wait for you to come to them.

[Doom]

My fortress is totally pregnable, it's not even two years old.

I have stone fall traps up all over, but there are quite a few paths right into the fortress that would miss them all. The only thing 'blocking' the entrance is a (microcline) road, built it right up to a downslope--if they can walk on the road, they can sure get in.

Any other guesses?

[Doom]

Welp, the gobbos woke up and gave me a sound thrashing...lawdy, they must have triggered 50 different stone fall traps, and just kept coming. Maybe they stood around so long waiting to attack?

Ah well, I'll just have to pay more attention to defense next time around.

Sorry i'm digging up an old topic, but i figured it was better than starting a topic anew about the same issue. Google found the thread for me.

I've got this problem right now, but the thing is i'm not trying to give the elves any wooden items. I'm trying to trade them Shell Crafts. They seem to think they are wood.

"Mame: Once a beautiful tree, and now? It is a rude bauble, fit only for your kind."

I don't have a lot of wood, so i wouldn't dare make wooden crafts. Is this worthy of a bug report? I'm in 31.20

Got the same problem, I managed to narrow it down to a crystal crown, apparently they tough it was made of wood.
