Trainer_Zero Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Don't they only catch things on fire when you kill them? Why would you kill him in your camp if you saw he was red? Just kit him until morning, or make a torch and take him into the night. 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/2778-seriousely-red-hounds/#findComment-22475 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syd Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 The basic purpose of fire hounds is to discourage placing so many valuable-yet-flammable things so close together. The best you can do if you want to keep a farm like that is to make sure that you kite the fire hound well away from your camp before you kill it.

ebichu Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Well I have a question. I killed a flame hound near a tree....yes and it set the whole dang island on fire. Everything was randomized was literally that close together. So now I have nothing but charcoal on that island. Is it intentional not to have have it grow back? I'm running out of wood....

mobius187 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Is it intentional not to have have it grow back? I'm running out of wood....Hmmm? You mean the trees? Trees only grow back if you plant pine cones and burned trees won't regrow.

Syd Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I am having some problems with step 1, I can hear the hounds, but how do I ear them?They make a strange huffing sound that sounds like it's coming from different directions for about a minute before they attack. It doesn't really sound like the sort of noise you'd expect to come from a hound, but it's the only warning you get before they strike. As long as you have the sound on, you should be able to hear them.
