DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Repeated crashes with wine on Linux
« on: September 07, 2023, 03:49:30 am »
Since this isn't a DF bug I can't report it to the bug tracker, but I just wanted to put it online somewhere: I'm experiencing crashes with running the new version on wine/amd64.  This happens both with wine 8 stable and development, and rarely enough that I get a good fortress going on for a few years before the application suddenly quits and takes a season's worth of progress with it.

If there's any other people playing from itch who refuse to use Steam/Proton, I would advise caution.  I will hold my elkbirds and wait until the Linux version is back before commiting to play.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Dig the desert to bloom it?
« on: September 01, 2023, 11:20:50 am »
I don't know if this counts as a bug or intended behaviour, and if it's well-known or not.  But if you dig a single layer on an outdoors desert/wasteland tile, the sand tile underneath immediately starts growing grass?

I found it by accident on a blessed desert-beach fortress so the grass was blue, the effect was quite pretty.  I thought I would need to irrigate outside sand tiles to make them sprout, like cavern floor, and was digging holes for ponds, but they just immediately sprouted into verdant pastures.  Well, azure pastures I suppose
