I decided to train up my blocking skill by letting a warthog beat on me for a bit, but when I got over to it my feet randomly started melting. After a bunch of heavy bleeding it all ended and my feet were perfectly fine, albeit now completely missing their fat. It's not even particularly hot in the area I'm in and it only affected my feet. What the hell just happened?

[penguinofhonor]

Magmahogs.

[Mythos]

Damned invisible magmahogs attaching themselves to my feet...

UPDATE: Shit. My toes started to melt too and I bled to death. Good thing I saved recently...

UPDATE 2: Seriously, this is getting extremely annoying. I made my way to a town that I've been to before and I know for a fact was perfectly safe back then, and I'm still melting. What the hell is going on?

[Knigel]

Is it raining? Also, what does it say the temperature is when you press [P]?

[Untelligent]

I don't see how the temperature readout will help. He already knows it's hot enough to melt toes, he just doesn't know where it's coming from.

Also if your feet and toes are the only things melting check your inventory and see if there's any weird gunk stuck on your feet.

HERETIC! You have paid your price... Praise be Armok!


*Ahem* Sorry.
Disease or temperature?

[Kobold Troubadour]

Questions:
- Have you fought any creature with special abilities recently? Fire breath? Acid blood?
- Have you checked your body parts & clothes for any foreign material that may have caused this?
- have you bathed recently or washed off any foreign materials off you through swimming or rain prancing?

I recently fought and killed a dragon.  I escaped without significant injury, but soon afterwards began spontaneously melting.  The melting stopped only when I took off and dropped all my equipment.  Even after I left the site for some time and then came back, putting the armor I was wearing when I fought the dragon back on would immediately cause melting.  It's as if the armor had somehow permanently been made hot enough to cause melting.

dunk it in water. see if the water boils within 5 turns. If so,  you've got stuff hot enough to kill you pretty easily...

[Grek]

Yeah, and if that doesn't work, go on a quest to the icy north pole, find a crag into the icy depths of the underpole and put your armour there. That'll get it cold.

Or murder his frame-rate melting the entire area..

It's quite possible the damn thing is bugged to always be at a fixed temperature, even if that effectively makes it an infinite source of heat. Just like with magmamen.

[Lordinquisitor]

The obvious question is: Do you also have such flesh melting gloves? If so, wear them, let them burn off the fat on your hands and see what happens when you grab peoples heads.

[cikulisu]

i think we've got ourselves a really good throwing weapon here, gentlemen.

[G-Flex]

Temperature bugs aside, fatty tissue melts extremely easily in DF. Think "high fever".

[Mythos]

Oddly enough, it's stopped happening. I actually had fought a dragon somewhat recently, so maybe it superheated my gear and it finally cooled down.
