Thats not what the suggestor is asking, he is asking for the History to be able to go on for a long time. That technology eventually advances past that naturallly.

Then all of those new technologies would need to be added into the game just in case someone wants to play in a different era. This is going way beyond asking for more things for mechanics to do, and would include things such as entirely new workshops, new materials, new items to make, new weapons and armor (the easy part), new randomly generated terrain, new creatures, and new physics for the game engine to handle things like a vacuum, where your dwarves need spacesuits to survive outside.

You're basically asking for another game.

There already is a game sort of like that. Its called Space Station 13, which almost invariably ends up with the space station on fire and/or depressurized.

So most of us don't want techonlogical but social advancement.
Now the thing we need is a way to make people during world-gen capable of deciding what kind of weapons they should be using. Any sugestions?
