Fey mood madness!
« on: October 20, 2010, 10:09:23 pm »
Another newb question...I have a farmer going psyco (im out of booze so the dwarves are a bit testy). How do I put him in jail?
Also. I cant make a cage designated for justice. It's all grayed out.

Is the farmer going psycho because he failed a fey mood? If that's the case, he can't be helped. If he's just tantruming your captain of the guard, sheriff, or similar figure should restrain him (usually by killing him) unless you get your jail set up. The cage you make your jail with needs to be metal to be used for justice. Alternately, just use a rope or chain.

If your farmer is listed as being in a fey mood, see http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/Mood.

I don't think it's actualy a few mood. I think he's just mad because he's sobber. But I was trying to use wooden cages. I have rope...but how do I use that for justice?

Build it somewhere and assign him to it like you would an animal?

(b) --> (v) --> Dorf builds rope. Highlight it with q and you should be able to set it for justice. You might need a sheriff for this.

Is he tantruming, or just unhappy? Or is he outright insane? Where does the fey mood fit in?

Everyone is forgetting a step for the ropes. You need to make a ROOM first before toggling it for justice. You do not need a sheriff or captain of the gaurd to do this. However, you WILL need a sheriff or captain of the gaurd in order to have someone actually restrain him on said rope.

It is the exact same steps for cages.

One of the dwarfs walked in front of Thor to get a better view of the prye, and Thor kicked him irritably into the middle of the flames, which made Thor feel slightly better and made all the dwarfs feel much worse.

He went "Berserk" Then "insane"...then chased any one who came near him and then strangled a cat...then kept chasing any one who came near him again....wich is bad for me because he's on my main workshop floor.

How do I go about giving the cat a warriors grand funeral?

Designating a room is under the justice menu IIRC (I haven't bothered w/ justice since 40d).

EDIT: You're screwed. Lock him in a room, or kill him with a well-armed citizen militia. Once he's berserk, he can't go back, he'll just go on a murderous rampage until everything is dead. And be careful, he has pretty big stat boosts due to being insane.

Hit s, the you will see a list of squads in the pane. Select the letter of the squad you want then hit m which will command them to move to where ever you click and they will kill anything on the way there or at their destination. You could also use k and select the dwarf himself but the k command is a little buggy and they don't always follow it.

I haven't had any problems with (k)ill orders. If you're running a recent build, try using it. It ensures that they'll stay on target and follow him.

And don't worry about being a noob. We all were.
