| Summary | 0010334: Danger room no longer functionable in current version? | ||||
| Description | In 43.05, any amount of clothing would protect your dorfs from the damage caused by training spears (I think), however, attempting this in my new 44.01 save, caused the dorf I put in there to promptly be rapidly bruised to death. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Step 1. Build a danger room with wooden spears Step 2. Put a dorf in there Step 3. Watch them die | ||||
| Additional Information | The dorf WAS fully clothed, the attacks went through their clothing. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

This doesn't seem like a bug? Danger rooms are a community pattern, not a game feature. |
|
|
Not a bug. Danger rooms are a exploit. |
|
|
I vaguely remember some changes making danger rooms less effective, but that already happened a while ago, and had nothing to do with this release. |

From http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Danger_room: "Danger rooms were a useful workaround for regular training being too slow and difficult for new players to figure out in previous versions. However, recent modifications to the combat system have made danger rooms quite dangerous and barracks training significantly more effective, so small-group sparring is currently the recommended training regimen." This was added before 0.44.01. Are you sure that you were using danger rooms in 0.43.05 (not something earlier)? At any rate, danger rooms themselves were reported as 0003855, so I'm inclined to say this isn't a bug. |
|
|
I thought I was playing 43.05, but I think I was playing 43.03. Still... it'll make actual training a lot harder now. |
|
|
I'd say this is working as intended. Training taking too long is a different issue from your dwarves dying after going full Vlad the Impaler on them. |

|
The removal of an exploit is not a bug. |
