DF Bug Reports / [40d14] Cant Exit after Dying in Adventure mode
« on: August 24, 2009, 07:27:25 pm »
Whenever I play adventure mode and die, the game wont let me exit. Escape does nothing, and its not like its frozen because stuff is still flashing, its just escape doesnt respond. Escape responds in all other cases except when I die in adventure mode.

DF Gameplay Questions / Dwarves just hanging around
« on: March 18, 2009, 03:28:09 am »
Hey i was building an irrigation chamber for farming in the mountain when two miners and a farmer got locked in for about 5 or so days cause my mechanic kept on eating and going on breaks. Since then whenever my second miner has nothing to do he just goes and sits in the irrigation chamber, I was wondering why he does it. Kind of annoying when i want to fill it back up with water.

DF Gameplay Questions / Elephants = deadly?
« on: March 01, 2009, 07:30:30 pm »
Hey, kinda new to the game and this is my first fortress in a savage neutral area so I didnt know what to expect. Until a little bit ago it was going smoothly, just some warthogs in the area, but then all of a sudden 3 elephants burst into my fortress through my then unguarded second entrance and kill my farmer, they then leave and hover around until just now all but 1 have left the map. Do I need to be worried about hordes of elephants raiding my fortress?

DF Gameplay Questions / What to do with Titan...
« on: October 19, 2008, 10:01:52 pm »
Hey... I just got my first fotress with dwarven economy not 20 minutes ago and shortly after I got the economy a Titan attacked! So you could imagine how excited I was. I got like 10 marksdwarves, set them up by my drawbridge, got everyone else indoors, and then the titan stepped on my cage trap and is now trapped in a Birchen cage (not before killing my hammerer though :D).

So... hes now sitting in my animal stockpile... and I dont know what I can do with him as I've never dealt with a Titan before. Can anybody tell me what I can do with him?

DF Gameplay Questions / Why cant all my artifacts be this great?
« on: October 12, 2008, 01:10:55 am »


I mean really, my others were like 5000 point wooden scepters encircled with wood with an engraving of wood on it. Why can't the rest be like this -.-.

DF Gameplay Questions / Lots of immigrants
« on: September 21, 2008, 07:49:59 pm »
I just recently started a new fortress and after a year of no immigrants suddenly I got 23 of them, some of them pretty good too. Now I've never gotten more than like 7-10 at a time so I'm wondering will I be getting a huge amount next immigrant season and if so, should I start preparing for them now?

DF Gameplay Questions / Named Creatures
« on: September 13, 2008, 03:15:57 pm »
I just started a new fort and I have a chasm that contains 6 batmen, and all of a sudden they started getting names. So now all 6 have names and I was just wondering if that is anything to worry about.

DF Gameplay Questions / Can't get good fortress started...
« on: September 06, 2008, 10:22:48 pm »
Hey, I've been playing for a while but I can't seem to get a good fortress going. I either screw up the way its made somehow or get constantly assaulted by kobold thieves or just make stupid mistakes like trying to get a well up and accidentally flooding like two rooms cause I linked it to a river -.-. So any general good tips for starting a fortress.

P.S. Ive read the "Your First Fortress" tutorial on the wiki.

DF Gameplay Questions / Using save file on other tile sets
« on: August 30, 2008, 11:13:33 pm »
Hey I just recently started playing this and It took me a while but now i've got all the basics down and am learning more advanced (i guess) stuff. I finally got a fortress that I really like and am currently in year 2 but after I made this i found out about tilesets. I really like this one called Mayday (i think thats it) and i tried copying the "region 1" folder from the regular folder to the one with the Mayday but that didnt let me play it, so what can I do to play the regular tileset save game on the new tileset?
