only children?
« on: October 04, 2006, 02:12:00 am »

i made a new world with the new version and the town I started in had only children...
besides the guards, merchants & mayor.

maybe it is a smaller town? or maybe they are off working somewhere...

- I died pretty quickly when three undead and the undead mace lord snuck out of the dark. so I started a now guy in another human settlement and there are some more people around.  

unless you did not mean for this to happen the kids thing is probably a feature and I was probably in some military outpost/small town.

Why would a military outpost have children?

The smaller towns will be like that, since it generates family units and then gives some of the adults jobs -- if it needs them all for guard/shop duty, that's how it'll be.  Those towns should probably be handled somewhat different -- like...  no guards, no stores, just some farmers or something, depending on the role of the town.
