What does it mean if a human child is flashing with pink quotation marks? They are awake while the rest of the population is asleep, I accused them of being a night creature but to no avail.
They're playing.

Lol well I was following a pink N in my tracking screen and he turned up, so I thought something might be up. Sheesh that's like the dwarf fortress equivalent of someone shooting at a kid for holding a watergun isn't it.

Out of Curiosity, As of right now, I am working on a dwarf fortress with decent supplies and weapons, with a entrance to the underworld and caverns, once I retire the fortress, make an human adventurer and return, would demons roam into the fortress? And would I be able to go in and grab supplies from bins safely as a human adventurer? (I checked Civ screen, nobody is an enemy)

Any demons on the map'll likely scatter around the area, with some staying in the fort. So aside from possibly causing a small-scale apocalypse, should have Fun exploring the fort.

Items in the fort however are prone to scattering all about at random.

I thought items only scattered if the fortress was abandoned? or does that happen with Reitiring the fortress too?



Also, on another note, would the human/dwarf population start making a lot of steel and adamantine wep/armors if I sold them a crap ton of them in fortress mode then switched to adventure mode?

Oh right, retiring a fort. Misread that because I've never thought of retiring a fort infested with demons. o.O

xD well they wont be infested, i'll glitch em out and build a staircase going down, and also put up a defense system leading to that room lol


Edit:
Random, but, when I made a tiny base in Hell, then (after 1 of the steam dudes broke my door) I made a wall their, then they stopped spawning again lol

There are just far too many criminal organizations vying for control in towns to continue doing quests for one hearth without running into them. The problem is, I get to the town they send me to, and the group they are talking about is not in complete control, so I have no idea how to find them. Then when I ask the townspeople about criminals, they talk about criminal organizations, but do not name them - they just tell me what towns they own. So I'm not sure if I should just be systematically eradicating every town listed FOR this town in hopes that my lord from another town will eventually be pleased that I got rid of the right group. Very confusing  :-\

I've had this problem as well, tho most people tell ya just to either:
A. Use legends mode to find out their boss and members and kill them (I tried but I became lost figuring this method out)
B. Look for  Ringmaster or Boss npc's in dungeons/temples and kill them and the group with them

But besides those.. Idk truthfully.. I gave up on Criminal Orgs and Abduction quests honestly lol. Either to confusing or to glitchy.

That's helpful probably more reliable than what I was doing which was asking each and every soldier I found what their profession was and what they thought of the lord and the aforementioned group.

I never attack 'criminals' I just recruit their members for ADVENTURE! Over time you can recruit every criminal there is, amass a whole army of them, make them hearthpersons and lords of places you've claimed' drop them off at your base then assssinate the leaders.

Or you know, reduce their numbers through adventure attrition. Wiping them out is a waste either way.

Haven't actually tried it, but if I came across a barrel of milk in a retired fort, could I drink the milk? Or just lick it, like I was licking my pig tripe roasts?

I just quickly get to the Necromancer tower and read the book so I don't have to worry about eating or drinking tbh xd easy to get in and out, even with a fresh character
