They're hardcoded, they have no raws, sorry.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Best fix you can do is play old 40d, before they made them.

I play adventure mode because it's hard and when I play, I am too.
I believe we're talking about full scale colonisation here.  You don't just leave all your shit in the van when you move house.

I set a character to max stats via runesmith and still had a very hard time killing them.

I don't understand what everyone's problem is. Travelling with companions or staying in towns at night isn't too hard...

I think it's the way towns develop now. In the beginning, people move into a town. Then they start producing tables, which results in more and more tables. Soon tables represent a significant portion of the population, they start lobbying for new laws and regulations, putting people to greater and greater disadvantage...

You can one-shot them with any of those to the head.

I think you can gen worlds without boogeymen by setting the boogeymen types to 0.

Or maybe that was just nightcreatures, I can't remember.

Bogeymen suck, yeah, but there is a fairly effective way of fighting them. Kite them around, and if you can charge one without getting exposed to the wrath of the others, do so. Get them separated. Once you have a few turns with one of them, knock his ass down and cut it off. Bogeys are supremely vulnerable to slashing attacks, since you can slice them in half with a damn copper dagger. That isn't to say it's without risk, though. They can still kick your face in at a moments notice. If you lack slashing weapons, you can also bite their limbs off. And they will bleed to death FAST.

Also, being a dorf helps a lot, since you tend to go in a martial trance. Once you do that, it's all over for them. Any fairly solid slashing attack to their head or lower body is going to kill them, so get those hits in while it lasts!

Combine these two, and you're more than likely to survive completely unscathed. Unless they catch you while you're unconscious. But why would you sleep outside, alone, during the night, anyways?

I usually play axemen and I don't see the problem that folk have with bogeymen. If you set your combat preferences to charge and to dodge around from attacks, then attack without using precise strikes, I seem to hit them every time. They bleed out pretty fast from weak things like getting hit in the hand.

Also, run until you can fight them one at a time. When creating a character, go for shitloads of agility. Speed and being able to dodge is key.

1: Create a world with advanced parameters

2: Go to edit advanced parameters and search for night creature types

3: Set night creatures types to 0

4: ???

5: Profit. It removes bogeymen.

For what it's worth, I've never been attacked by Boogeymen while sleeping in a cave, so if you don't have companions and the nearest town's too far off, you can try that.
