v0.31 Talk:Cave spider

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Wouldn't separating your spider habitat from your cats via doors marked as impassable for pets do the trick , while leaving your cats free to clean up other vermin from your fort? Oddtwang of Dork 09:08, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

The problem with that is that eventually a dwarf will pass through the door and the cat that is desperately trying to get in will have a small window to do so.--Kuroneko 12:24, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

If cats are annoying in real life as they are in DF, I want all of them dead. Even Scamps. And the article is wrong - you can't chain or cage cats that are pets of some crazy cat lady. 22:42, 28 April 2010 (UTC)~

This looks fixed. Thanks. Minus 00:56, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Venomous?[edit]

Is there a good page that redlink should go to? I may just be blind but I haven't found a comprehensive page explaining the poison system in v0.31 yet.

This looks fixed. Thanks. Minus 00:56, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Masterwork Quality[edit]

Is there any reason this page should not be considered masterwork? It seems rather comprehensive given the fact that the topic is a rather mundane vermin. Perhaps adding a small screenshot depicting the webs? Minus 01:06, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Well I think it has more or less all you need to know about them, including how to deal with them and what they're good/bad for. It also respects every criteria of the quality post so why not. I'm fetching a screenshot right now. --Speed112 01:10, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. Obviously being two miles long isn't a criteria; there is certainly value in being concise. Any nea votes? Minus 04:00, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
A .GIF screenshot would be preferable. --Quietust 04:22, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
Good idea, but I have no objection to bumping the quality. Mason (T-C) 06:36, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Venom[edit]

Seeing as they now have venom, we should probably mention that, especially since, though mild, it is the only venom besides GCS bites to cause permanent disability (GCS bites cause permanent "You got eaten by a GCS", but not always, if you are lucky.)

Tame Cave Spiders[edit]

Will tame cave spiders produce webs? IIRC there are some bugs with tame vermin, like tame purring maggots which can't be milked.
