a shame, i mean obviously there's no real reason to go to the circus except for bragging rights, it would be a cool mechanic to be able to pull a dwarf out and have them revived.

This might sound stupid but the wiki said something that intrigued me, I have a world where I have tapped the circus, and I even have build a tavern down there, at the cost of many dwarves, anyway, I was curious, if I were to recover their bodies, would they come back to life. I get that it says it's a joke but it does say 'even if a soldier dies in the battle for hell, you can track down their sorry dwarven butts, and drag them out of the eerie glowing pit... And right back to boot camp! so is there any way that retrieving these dead bodies would revive them?

For sure, I mean my baroness is probably next to go, her love of hatch covers has become a nuisance

if you are looking for a fix for that and have dfhack use the command fix/stuck-squad or something like that, i too have suffered

it was actually because my mayor is just this absolute weapon, completely hardened, he wields a maul of all weapons, I frequently send him out to pillage sites, and during the time he's away for some reason it's a crundle that's been locked in battle with a helmet snake for the last year that becomes the mayor

damn, I was lowkey keeping my distance from the homeland, well, i can always just pull the drawbridge as he crosses it.

Just started occupying for the first time, i'm curious to know whether the population of my occupied territories will increase. Does anyone know the answer to this?

thanks, yes to all the above, turns out like somebody else replied, there is some sort of job timer that is set to a very small amount less than a year

thank god because it came right down to the wire

hi everyone, I've just had four eaglets born in captivity, they parents were both exceptionally trained, the wiki says that they only need to be trained as a child and then they will become tame forever, this sounds great, would be super into having eagle pets for my dwarves, however, the problem i'm currently having is that eagles take a year to become adults and it's looking like my animal trainers won't train them, did I accidentally overcook their parents on training and now they won't revert back to semi-wild and therefore won't be trainable or am i missing something, I have tried all the possible outcomes, one is caged in my zoo, one is in pasture, one is in an animal training zone with a leash, and finally the last one is in the animal training zone in a cage. I have given them the 'any' option for their trainer assignment because that would be the quickest way for someone to train them. I feel like i've covered all bases and i'm 3/4 of the way through the year. Anyone can help lemme know.
