DF Suggestions / Designate trade
« on: August 10, 2011, 11:12:08 pm »
Like the mass dump, but for trading. (d)esignate>(b)uilding/item properties>(t)rade

It's a pain to press enter down enter for hundreds and even thousands of mugs.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / disobediant merchandise (or a bug)
« on: February 18, 2011, 01:17:45 am »
i walled some merchants in and took their animals, and now i cant mass cram them into cages. the game now treats them as stolen. if the names are in blue they wont do anything. i think im gonna throw them into the magma now.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / question about pressure plates
« on: February 16, 2011, 12:19:05 am »
inb4check the wiki. that confused me even more.



okay so i have this set up to defend against sieges.
Code: [Select]
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXEEXDX
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPAAAAAAAAAAAASX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXEEXDX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXEEXRX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXEEXXXX=wall
E=empty space
D=door
S=upright spike
R=weapon rack
P=pressure plate
A=bridge

the bridge folds up into a wall for my danger room. when the gobbos step on the pressure plate they get atom smashed releasing my 1 dwarf army to kill the rest of them in the bottle neck. the only problem is that i need the pressure plate to be reusable. when the goblins step off of the pressure plate the bridge would return to its wall state killing the dwarf.

how do i make the reusable plate not deactivate when the goblin walks off of it?

DF Suggestions / military equipment
« on: February 09, 2011, 03:57:52 am »
make items disappear off the equipment screen when you assign them to your dwarfs. it is very annoying spending time finding which glove the dwarf didnt decide to pick up, especially when you have 20 pairs of gloves.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / do artificial bridges allow invaders to cross
« on: January 30, 2011, 01:49:50 am »
ok so i have 2 continents on my world map. if i were to connect the 2 continents with a lot of flooring as a bridge would invaders be able to cross it to attack my fort? its getting boring with the good land on one side and the gobs on the other.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / rivers defy logic
« on: January 27, 2011, 01:08:19 am »
here we have floor 4. i am draining a river with 3 stairways. the river is 4 tiles wide. 1 tile should flow off the map right?

floor 3. my post flood dining room (which happened because i thought water could go through fortifications). i have yet to build it.

floor 2. drainage to a different river. my cat got stuck here and drowned.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

floor 1. a flowing river from a redirected waterfall. wtf. also that grey thing is an obsidian wall. alligators are annoying.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

also the rivers meet and the exit for the river stays 4 tiles wide. both rivers are 4 tiles wide. 4+4=4? do rivers work like aquifers?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / schools
« on: January 21, 2011, 10:02:25 pm »
i have an idea! when i was messing around with dwarf therapist i noticed it had an option: enable labor setting on anyone(im a dirty cheater). now we all know children are sitting on their asses doing nothing but eating all our food. there is a solution however:sweatshops schools.

we simply drop all the children down a chute with a dog chained to the bottom. they survive. then we drop some stone/food/whatever down a different chute so they have supplies. we have them build workshops. they build useless crap until they become legends. then we drop the legends down another chute to freedom with a puppy chained at the bottom.

BONUS POINTS for dropping cats down the first chute so they have some company.

edit:it only works if you have dwarf therapist
