So i defined a barracks via bed, have 2 soldiers - what more do i need to make them spar? --[[User:Koltom|Koltom]] 18:07, 11 February 2008 (EST)

:Is their squad on duty? They'll only spar if the squad is "standing down". See the [[Sparring]] article for more details. --[[User:AlexChurchill|AlexChurchill]] 07:03, 20 June 2008 (EDT)
 
 
I am starting to notice that my dwarves are only going to spar in the barracks two at a time regardless of size. Is this right? [[User:MikeWulf|MikeWulf]] 11:01, 24 May 2008 (EDT)
 
:I'm looking at three pairs of sparring soldiers in my only (rather big) baracks.--[[User:Dorten|Dorten]] 23:18, 19 June 2008 (EDT)
 
 
The 4x4 minimum size designation is not true for 33c at least. I saw multiple times my soldiers sparring in a 3x3 room with 3 pieces of furniture in it (If they tumble around while sparring it could be true though, since it was across the hall from the main big barracks). As for the "not sparring" question, I think they need to have different job names. Like wrestler and marksman, or Elite marksman and marksman (not sure about last one).

:That's not true about needing different job names - they could never get started if that were the case, since military dwarves start off as Recruits. (Well, unless you get immigrant soldiers. But I was able to get some Swordsdwarves and Wrestlers having started them all as Recruits.) --[[User:AlexChurchill|AlexChurchill]] 07:03, 20 June 2008 (EDT)
 
 
:I think if you try to pair a -lets say wrestler- and a marksdwarf to spare together, it wont work, because a marksdwarf trains at the shoting range and not in meleecombate. --[[User:Spectre|Spectre]] 14:18, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 
 
== Soldiers never use more than one barracks? ==
 
 
In several forts now, I've never had my soldiers use more than one barracks, even though I have >20 soldiers and two or more squads. The barracks they use is either the one I make first, or the one that is closest to the eating/partying area. Do others have this problem? -- [[User:D64|D64]] 08:16, 27 July 2008 (EDT)
 
 
Sqauds travel together at all times, also sparring close to the eating/partying area is probably just conveniance, if the barracks is far away your drunken rage against another dwarf would have dimished by the time you get there.--[[User:Warlordzephyr|Warlordzephyr]] 05:35, 10 February 2009 (EST)
 
 
== Clothes littered in the Barrack ==
 
 
I trained a couple of wrestlers in my barrack and now there lies clothing everywhere, owned by said dwarves.
 
I assigned them some roomes and put a chest and a cabinet in each but they dont seem like cleaning up there mess.
 
Could that be because they have reached hero status und now havent the cleaning-job enabled? And if so, how do i get them do put there clothes back on? --[[User:Spectre|Spectre]] 14:46, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 
 
:I just read a post on the forums suggesting that there is no way to get rid of the clothes that were ripped off during wrestling practice.  If you tag them as "Hidden", then at least your barracks will look neater, although the ripped, bloody, vomit-stained clothes will still be there.  Fortunately, no one seems to care.

== Soldiers won't Spar ==
 
They have a nice 8x11 area for sparring defined from an armor stand.  They never use it.  How can I fix that? --[[User:Corona688|Corona688]] 00:42, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 
 
:Set them to off duty with the military screen and view squad. [[User:Greep|Greep]] 07:46, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
