Summary0009692: Sleeping people do not wake upon drum solos, or anything else
DescriptionSo I'm working my way through this bandit cave lair, and some of the goblin bandits are asleep. The first two I quietly beheaded, but this third one I wanted to give a REALLY nasty wake-up call to. Five drum solos a square away later, and he is still asleep. Nor can I talk him awake. Throwing an amulet at him doesn't help either. Then I threw my axe at him and mangled his guts with it. Still asleep. Now I'm beating him with a bone figurine. Surely you'd think at some point he would wake up and try to defend himself, yes?
Steps To ReproduceFind sleeping bandits, attack unmolested. Can confirm that villagers do this too, and that you could hypothetically beat an entire village to death with a bone figurine without anyone waking up.

Have you tried lighting fires under people? I mean, it won't wake them up, but it seems up your alley.

Can confirm. I hacked a goblin overlord's hand off with a copper knife (which took quite a few tries) and he slept through the whole thing.

This is definitely a real bug, I have seen this.

Duplicating this to 0007108 for Adventure mode talking/noise/etc not waking people up. See also 0006798. Sleeping through attacks is covered (Dwarf Mode) by 0001740.
