Apparently dwarves refuse to use them, since they count as weapons or something.

You should give him a Large and see if he accepts it.

Someone I know threw a love potion at the little girl, which then laid an egg, then ate the egg.

What do stethoscopes even do?

I always found it weird that there is no way to view what is acting as the ceiling to your tunnels.

This is because humans have better weapons and actual buildings.  At least I assume that is the reason, I figure that Dwarves have the best defensive rolls in worldgen of everyone, considering their tendency to win against all odds.

Reserved bags would be nice too.

This is, I believe, the second reported instance of this.

Weird.

That actually confused me the first time I took a delivery mission, I thought that the item was lost or something.

I suppose they misunderstood my question then...

Orthoclase; "It can be colored white, gray, yellow, pink, or red; rarely green." - Wikipedia
Microcline is a cyanish color in DF as it is.

That being said, bright colors that are radically different from each other are helpful in games for discerning things, or do you want DF to be a game where you really need to train your eye to see what's going on even with the ROCKS?

Oh well, maybe some day.

Someone told me that kimberlite pipes are in DF though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coesite

I was reading a book and stumbled on this rock being mentioned.  I wanted to know why it was important and looked it up, appears to be a volcanism indicator, and is often found with kimberlite.  In DF this could be a surface-indicator of a hidden kimberlite pipe (does it actually form pipes in DF?) to be seen on the embark screens.

Other than that, I guess it's just another useless rock.  Sort of greenish according to what I am reading.

[VOLCANO_MIN:200]

Bad.

199 might work.  Althought on a map of this size, 200 should not be a problem, I will keep looking.  Are you sure that the map itself isn't confusing the loving hell out of the region placers?

I would not be suprised if Jic made some reference to DF somewhere.

I want to know the significance on the number 1600 in the variance settings.  Understanding exactly what that number means might help me with some ideas I have.

There's vermin fish, which fisherdwarves catch, and animal fish, which catch fisherdwarves.
Totally sigging that.

This should be one of the random messages on the main wiki page.
