DF Suggestions / Full Graphics Support is 5th in Eternal Voting - A tiny bit of GFX love soon?
« on: August 07, 2010, 04:40:52 pm »
I'm just saying; only really major things like pathing and hauling are higher voted. Just disambiguating these four tiles would bring about an absolute revolution in DF graphics:

15 ☼ Unmined Gem Cluster*, Rough Gems and Raw Glass, unmined bituminous coal*, mined bituminous coal*, currency symbol, masterpiece quality symbol, spider webs, turtle*, 'sun' symbol in engravings, gear assemblies, fireballs

88 X Bin, stone floodgate, shop post, building footprint, nausea/winded/stunned/unconscious/migrant indicator, text, up/down stairs, keyboard cursor

126 ~ Unfinished rough stone road, river, magma, flows, dirt road, farm plot under construction, sand, furrowed soils, blood smear, guts

247 ≈ Rough stone road or bridge, water, river, lava, glob, fat, tallow, farm plot, furrowed soil, vomit, blood pools, sea foam, others?

Edit: I'm not dismissing the awesome work Baughn is doing towards font support, but even that will be limited by other graphics issues.

DF Modding / Tree Saplings - Confusing by design?
« on: August 05, 2010, 10:31:40 am »
Some trees have a [SAPLING] tag, some dont. But they all produce saplings.

And seemingly only 4 specific trees allow use of the [SAPLING_TILE], [SAPLING_COLOR], and [DEAD_SAPLING_COLOR] tags...

I'm confused... Is this how its supposed to be or is it broken? O.o

DF Suggestions / Adamantine Sutures? - The Six Million Buck Dwarf!
« on: July 26, 2010, 10:31:27 pm »
I just noticed this:


This guy should be a Dwarven Wolverine now?

So yeah I'm suggesting some sort of awesome benefits from Urist McStitches sticking a ton of Adamantine into a dorf :D

DF General Discussion / Using Squad Insignia
« on: July 25, 2010, 01:55:52 pm »
Recently I've started giving my dorfs squad insignia by using the extended characters that show up as icons rather than letters. It really helps figure out who goes where! :)

DF Modding / Rough Gem tile - Where in the raws to change it?
« on: July 24, 2010, 11:05:29 am »
The wiki indicates that rough gems can be remapped from the ☼ tile, but I cant figure out where to make this change... Halp? :)

DF Suggestions / Separate tile sheet for the world map?
« on: July 23, 2010, 01:26:15 pm »
I know this is covered by "full graphics support" but an interim measure that would really help would be to put the tiles used for the world map into their own separate sheet.

DF Suggestions / Seasonal Irrigation task linked to a lever for farm plots?
« on: July 13, 2010, 10:37:12 pm »
Of course it's up to us to ensure that the lever only releases the required amount of water!

DF Suggestions / Make caverns more large and open.
« on: July 10, 2010, 11:14:39 pm »
I'm sure I'm not the only one who has noticed how DF strains under path calculation when units are traversing caverns. Maybe tweak the generation to produce large open caves instead of so many narrow twisty little tunnels everywhere?

DF Suggestions / Make it possible for corpses to use the creature/zombie/skeleton tiles?
« on: July 10, 2010, 11:11:30 pm »
I'm sure this has been suggested but as usual I cant find it amidst the sea of posts :P

In most of the awesome tilesets there are extensive graphics including decayed and skeletal states but they are not used for corpses rotting away. In fact corpses dont show up at all, just the letter for that creature...? Also applies to a lot of caged animals.

DF Suggestions / Make Skull Totem's More Awesome?
« on: July 08, 2010, 11:38:59 pm »
When you examine them, they should be inscribed with some details of how the creature died!

It is a most excellent way to display the heads of your fallen enemies!

DF Suggestions / Add "Waterfall" to the find embarkation point system?
« on: June 18, 2010, 01:43:53 pm »
Waterfall: Yes
Aquifer: No

This would make me happy :)
