« on: October 17, 2011, 01:44:03 pm »
Sorry i only said magma to get attention. But in exchange i just dropped one of my dwarf in a volcano somewhere for the gods.

Can we turn-off the Ghosts... i mean... they are really annoying and one of the only things that i raelly hat in this game. Couldn't they're be a little less of them or... can we destroy them?

Well, they only show up if you fail to bury your dwarves, so try burying them. That'll get rid of any existing ghosts.

I'm having an issue with Ghasts and Ghouls too. My fortress died due to tantrum spiral(goblin origin) and I'm currently plagued by ghosts of a most violent nature. Two poor people have lost their limbs.

Coffins and slabs are the only answer, I'm afraid.

But i mean, can i disable this shit through the raws or anything, i dont want to waste time on that problem at all, i usually disable pauses and i want to figure out a way for me to watch some ceaseless carnage in ASCII. Ghost i hate, because of them all those corpses eventually make too much ghosts to deal with theere is always some new fucking ghosts!!!!

Try adding [CANNOT_UNDEAD] under [CREATURE:DWARF] in data/save/regionX/raw/objects/creature_standard.txt. If it doesn't work, you might have to add it to the global raws and generate a new world.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

crossing the bolts is the only way to kill the stay-puft plump helmet man getting all that crap out of your beard is the hard part.
