Talk:Vomit

From DwarfFortressWiki

Perhaps this page should be merged with and redirect to a general contaminants page? - Mzbundifund 23:52, 21 November 2007 (CST)

I agree--vomit isn't big enough to have its own page. Midna 13:44, 6 May 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Mood penalty?

Is there any sort of mood penalty associated with vomit? I can't imagine dwarves like trodding through the stuff...

Nope they're quite content to wade through the stuff.--Richards 20:48, 15 May 2008 (EDT)

Eww. --Borgin 23:47, 15 May 2008 (CST)

From what I read on thought page vomit can only help after it's created. Dwarves can drink vomit, though it obviously makes them unhappy. I wish DF had true fluid mechanics, not only water and magma. Vomit pump would be incredibly awesome. --Someone-else 21:30, 22 July 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Cleaning?

Will dwarves with the Cleaning job clear up puddles of vomit, or does it just go away over time?

I'm pretty sure they don't. They certainly don't clean it off of themselves either! Eventually most of my fortress seems to end up vomit-covered, especially babies. Actually babies end up worse as their parents tend to drop them in the mud whilst vomiting and if there's been a siege recently and the reason for everyone coming out is because of the lootables on the floor there tends to be a healthy amount of blood too, just in case vomit and mud stains weren't enough. --Krythorne

It seems to disappear from the floor at the beginning of each season. --Tachyon

[edit] Escaping cave adaptation

Once it has set in, is there any way to cure cave adaptation? Because I have dwarves building up a large tower, and they keep vomiting. It's annoying, and it's not good for the mental state of the fort. --Cypress 17:45, 26 August 2008 (EDT)
