40d Talk:Ruin
Ruins[edit]
Ruins are no longer populated by undead. I'll update the article with what they're like now. --Squeegy 17:35, 2 November 2008 (EST)
Use in adventure mode?[edit]
Is there any reason to visit a ruin in adventure mode? I've never come across one before. Are there items scattered about, like an abandoned fortress or cave entrance? – unsigned comment by Monkeyfetus
- Don't forget to sign your posts.... Anyway, I'm not sure ruins are even still generated--I haven't seen one, either, which is unfortunate as they seem to
be quite interesting features. Shame the undead have apparently been removed from them, though; I've always liked that sort of idea. ~ Midna 11:24, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
I've seen ruins in 40d adventure mode. There were two that I could find, on the travel map, both were described as "Mountain Home," obviously leading me to expect an abandoned dwarf fort which was abandoned in worldgen (I have not made a fortress in this world before). However, upon arrival, there were only scattered tower-cap barrels full of such basic items as plump helmets and booze, and the rotting bodies of oxes next to a wagon full of more supply barrels, and additionally pickaxes, an anvil and battle axes. Of course, since the draf animals weren't even done decomposing yet, it might have been a computer-controlled Dwarf civ which decided to send out a party. I never knew that was possible.--216.220.115.175 02:40, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
