Danger Room, what went wrong?
« on: April 08, 2011, 03:26:26 pm »

After reading much about the wonderful training facility I finally decide to create one. So It was ready, and I ordered one of my soldiers to station there. Immediately after I'm getting the result, that can be seen below...

Code: [Select]

You need to use training spears, not wooden spikes. Wooden spikes are actually dangerous.

Dig a grave or engrave a memorial, and get ready for an Unfortunate Accident.

How many spikes were there in that trap?

It looks like his hand was beat up by a wooden spike. Put on some gauntlets and a mail shirt. I think that covers your arms entirely.

Also, making shields out of adamantine isnt necessary. They can not be pierced (i think), so stick to masterwork bronze for the best shield defense to weight ratio... I think.

3 spikes in trap, 3x3 room.

Gauntlets were on the victim...
Woops! The dwarf was in two adamantine cloaks, wearng one as a cloak and the other as `armor`. Fixed, manually assigning adamantine breastplate instead of unspecified body armor. Also let everyone in breastplate have a mailshirt also.

PS
I'll build another one with training spears!
This training room will be reserved for being a bedroom for a noble, requesting strange things =)

Yeah, wooden spikes are for doctor training rooms. One pull, maybe two, and dwarves get hospitalized.

You have to use training spears and Upright Spike Traps connected to a lever, not weapons traps+spikes!

If it was a weapon trap, It wouldn't trigger on a dwarf, feeling OK. That was a b-T-S - upright Spear/Spike trap. Just loaded the wrong contents. =)

It would if you linked it to a lever. And ordered the Dwarf to pull the lever.  (Confine to burrow in Danger room for best effect.)
