v0.31 Talk:Danger room
Lever Triggering
If a lever is used, then it could be near the traps so that whoever pulls it will be the one who receives the training
This...doesn't seem to be entirely accurate. The trap cannot be placed on the same space as the lever, and dwarves will stand on the lever to pull it. It can be difficult to place things to make sure that he'll be standing on a trap when the delay ends, and if you set it to repeat, then the dwarf will just stand on the lever and pull it over and over, 100% safe from the trap itself. Am I doing something wrong?--Twilightdusk 03:35, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
- No, it's inaccurate. I'll revise it. --DeMatt 06:34, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Dangerous Danger rooms?
I (in an unmodded game) built a danger room (training barracks with upright training spears triggered by a pressure plate in a high traffic corridor) and used it for a few seasons. It worked normally (training soldiers stood in it while sparring and did not get hurt but did increase in skills) but once, just once, a dwarf got killed. I got the message "Urist McUnlucky has been impaled by a maple training spear" or something like that and he was just dead. If it's relevant, he was prone under another dwarf when it happened. None of my other dwarves who were in there at the time (not even the other dwarf standing over him when it happened) were so much as scratched. What gives?--129.252.87.174 18:25, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
