40d Talk:Building destroyer
BUILDINGDESTROYER:1[edit]
What exactly will a BUILDINGDESTROYER:1 creature destroy? I had an unchained tame giant cave spider in a silk factory for over ten years and it never broke down the pair of phyllite doors I had built around it. I've seen some reports that they only go for stuff made out of wood, but that seems a bit odd, since dwarves usually don't make wooden furniture other than beds. --Quietust 22:50, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not 100% sure that "tame" BD's operate the same as wild ones. It would be fairly labor-intensive to capture a BD, wild, and then present it with a full variety of B's to D. Then tame it, and do it again.--Albedo 21:43, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- It's my understanding that a BD:1 will bash down things in it's way into your fortress, whereas a BD:2 will bash anything it can. So, your spider would not, as it is allowed through doors, being tame. Just throwing my ideas in. --82.25.8.49 10:56, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Spirits of Fire[edit]
Why isn't the Spirit of fire listed? They sure topple stuff. Dorf and Dumb 07:06, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
- "Demon" covered them. Edited to emphasize variety.--Albedo 07:34, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
Underwater creatures[edit]
So, is it then so that no sea creature or fish can break things? While technically that'd be a good thing, the megalomaniac, self-destructive dwarf in me just thought that making underwater fortresses largely out of glass windows just isn't fun anymore. --Cotes 19:56, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
Floor Grates[edit]
Do creatures with the famous BUILDINGDESTROYER tag also destroy floor grate „buildings“ which hangs above open space?
