Unreachable fortress?
« on: June 02, 2008, 03:19:00 pm »

This is more of an odd World Generator Feature.

It placed a Goblin Tower in an unreachable location: The door is 3 Z levels up a cliff.

There was no possible way the goblins could have built it, unless they left a hole in the wall and then walled it up once they were done.

On the upside, the Goblins never used the tower: it was completely empty (not even any clothing from the dozens of goblins slain in the other two towers), likely because they could never reach it. (I managed to use Adventurer Mode + Tweak to warp to the entrance)

Hopefully building placement could be fixed so that all buildings are accessible by the people that created them.

Maybe you found the first incident of invisigoblins.

Jeez, you're tame. I'd say "Awesome!" then go about collapsing the thing.

I plan on going back in Dwarf Mode and turn it into a barracks, since it's inaccessible from the surface.

Or collapsing it for obsidian *shrug*.

It was in adventure mode, I couldn't really do that much.

I did find Goblins in the other two towers, just the inaccessible one was, as predicted, empty (and yet still "The Bad Castle"... I wish I was making this up) (I had wrongly predicted that it would be glitchy and full of starving goblins)

Making all of the site building accessible is up on to-do somewhere.
