« on: June 09, 2011, 08:15:04 am »Either it wasn't an artifact or it got deconstructed.Build it in a trap corridor that you wont be flooding with magma, preferably one that gets high traffic during cleanups and stuff. Little happy landmine for your haulers
why no magma!?
i heard artifacts are indestructible, so flooding it with magma shouldnt be a problem, unless, you have another reason to not suggest magmaflooding.
Are you certain? I'm 90% positive I lost an artifact floodgate to magma once - though it may simply have deconstructed and gotten washed away.

In short: All female crocs stay safe until you get 49. All but 1 male croc go to the military.

« on: June 03, 2011, 09:56:41 pm »Clowns are nice. I would remove their trap avoid tag and just capture a few in traps, maybe build a nice arena for all your Urist McIdiots to congregate and look at the shiny demons while the Urist McUsefuls close the doors behind them...Those are all of them.

« on: June 03, 2011, 07:36:44 pm »One approach that's been used with modders is to use a custom workshop+reaction+material to create an object made of a material that burns at room temperature. Search the Modding forum for the "bonfire mod" for more information.Do it BEFORE worldgen?I've heard about thermonuclear catsplosions, when folks set cat's HOMOTHERM to 10x magma temperature, and KABOOM.That doesn't work anymore - it actually didn't even work in 40d, since each creature remembered its HOMEOTHERM and thus wasn't affected when you edited the raws.
