Kobolds have a smell trigger of 25.

I wonder if the game has become odd.

How does the smell trigger thing work? Because I couldn't find dragons in the depths of fortresses even with vampiric see through walls blood vision.



Side note: is there any way to sneak up on a titan?

press 'o' to smell.

... damn never thought I'd say that. I believe there's a key for enabling the most dominants smell at the moment, but I haven't figured it out myself yet...

It tells me if a given creature is nearby, but gives no indication as to their location. I think I'm missing something here.


side note: any way to make it so 90% of the quests aren't titans, or at least make them not all come up before they tell me about any other problems?

also can anyone explain what the various things on this particular interface means? (on the presently displayed screen)

The entirety of the whole new quest system needs work, and for entities that didn't actually attack you not show up in the rumors which just fills it up.

Hopefully Toady One refines that stuff some before he starts working on the next major release.

The top is your different categories, which tells you what type of things will show up on the list to the right, the left will show information about what's selected.
The bottom left corner has different other actions, but the only important one is the Toggle map/info, which will swap the info on the left with a map, and will show you where the selected option is.

It's shift+o, IIRC.
Haven't smelled anything yet though

It can happen, though I don't know of any reliable ways to come across them.

I am well aware of this. What I wanted to know was what the specific entries on the lefthand part of this section in particular meant. Did I actually convert that human civilization to a kobold one?

Is your adventurer a kobold? I'm guessing that's probably why.

So, this means, when you conquer a town/hamlet/whatever, it actually changes its civ type to match your own?!? Could this be used to, very tediously, make all the dwarven civilizations elven, and all the elven civilizations dwarven, resulting in elves with beards mining for metals and hippy, clean shaven dwarves yelling angrily at the elves for chopping down trees? The kobolds are wearing pants, the goblins are stealing from their neighboring civs and the humans are kidnapping others to join their ways. MADNESS I TELL YOU, ITS MADNESS.


really though does this mean we can convert civs into other types of civs? because that's the implication i am getting here.

I have absolutely no idea what it's supposed to implicate.

I can tell you with certainty that that is a hamlet. and it was run by a human lord before I showed up. Or maybe it was a lady? I don't know. If this DOES mean what I think it does, this can likely be exploited for copious amounts of both fun and !!FUN!!

Is my one-legged no-armed vampire stuck that way? (Though you'd be surprised at how much damage she can do with one leg.)
