Revision as of 10:37, 25 January 2008
Please correct and expand this page. Initial questions: will cages melt and its inhabitants killed if magma is released onto it and the cage is non-magma-resistant?
I've done the cages to massive herds idea, but it doesn't work. They'll give birth just fine while in the cage (and the babies *won't* be locked in the cage, btw) but I've gone three years without a birth until a couple seasons after I released them all to presumably breed again. If you ask me, the ideal herd would be contained in a pit that's had access walled off, since (I believe) pathfinding lag isn't a factor when it's a wall, not a locked door.
Yea, I'm feeling a bit lazy right now, or I'd have edited this stuff into the article myself. Feel free to add it in and remove this, assuming I haven't just ended up in some weird situation where they just happen to have been pregnant for 3 years... --Edward 22:56, 10 January 2008 (EST)
Actually, the babies born in cages thing is true, but it works this way: the baby is born in the cage but is not assigned in the cage. So when it's born, a dwarf will immediately rush to free it. (Tried this by building a cage behind forbidden doors and the baby remained in the cage.)
By the way, how do you put a timestamp behind your edit? This timestamp below I have manually typed in. --User:ShunterAlhena 09:12, 11 January 2008 (EST)

STOP HIM!!!
How am I supposed to put a captured goblin in an arena without letting the little bastard go? Patarak 00:05, 25 January 2008 (EST)
