DF Suggestions / Don't Jump In Lava

« on: August 17, 2008, 12:26:22 pm »

I understand that the dwarves are skillfully dodging, and the dogs are zealously pursuing...
But at some point a dwarf needs to decide taking a punch from a fire imp might be less painful than dodging that punch into the lava. Dodge a different way or just take the hit.
My stray dogs often chase fire imps back into the magma pipe and then continue fighting while burning and drowning in the lava. Truly their loyalty knows no bounds, but perhaps it should.

DF Bug Reports / Dogs Won't Breed

« on: May 02, 2008, 09:58:00 pm »

The horses breed. The donkeys breed.
The cats burn, so I don't know if they breed yet.
The dogs do not breed.

Nobody is tied up (no ropes exist)
Nobody is caged (no cages exist)
None of the dogs are trained or assigned to anybody.
They all just mill about the meeting area with the horses and donkeys and idle Haulers.

But they don't breed, season after season.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong here, and this is my first bug report so I'm not sure how to post the save if that's needed. A little help please?

DF Suggestions / Magma hauling, Stack collecting

« on: April 04, 2008, 10:56:00 am »

Magma Hauling
Just as dwarves can fill ponds with water using buckets, they should be able to haul a unit of magma in a magma-proof bucket. Perhaps we should require them to be wearing some kind of mittens for this.

Stack Collecting
Item Haulers really need to run around grabbing 1s and 3s of things and merging them into stacks of 4, and so on whenever they have no tasks to do involving hauling a complete stack. They should break and collect stacks in a logical way in their 'spare time' to preserve stockpile space. It's nonsensical that nobody can tie a rubber band around 25 single steel crossbow bolts and jam them in the quiver.

DF Suggestions / Don't clear repeat orders on failure.

I want to be able to set my Still to "Brew Drink - R" and leave it. If there's no barrels, fine, you can't make dwarven wine. Put the order on the bottom of the workshop queue until a barrel shows up. Then when you get back to it and there's barrels, make some wine.

This way I can save my charcoal by filling my glass furnaces with "Collect Sand - R" to stop the manager from assigning make glass items jobs to the non-magma furnace, and they won't stop just because they ran out of bags, and they'll keep my sand stockpile nicely filled.

DF Suggestions / Item Blocking Site

Allow tasked items to be interacted with.
Allow dwarves who want to eat the food to take it from the dwarf hauling the food.
If the stonecrafter wants the shale rock the hauler is carrying, turn the hauler around and have him meet the stonecrafter halfway to hand it over.
If the mason needs to build a wall, but there's a stone there he is supposed to use to build the neighboring wall, MOVE THE STONE and build the wall.
