DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Which version/Pack for Adventurer Mode ?
« on: March 11, 2023, 12:07:21 pm »
I finally decided to give Adventurer Mode a try.

I am confused, which game versions have it at all - for example I read that it was disabled in 50.04.

So my question is - Which game version is the recommended one for the best Adventurer Mode experience ?

The PeridexisErrant's Starter Pack is the latest Pack apparently - and it's for 0.47.05

Is there a newer game version which has much better gameplay for AM ?
like mouse support - and does mouse support even make sense for AM ?

And if the answer is to use that starter pack - is there a guide to optimize it for AM ? like disabling all unneeded tools etc.

Thanks for your time

DF Gameplay Questions / Another Question (solved)
« on: October 13, 2018, 03:10:17 pm »
Being an (eternal) noob I stumble upon questions with which google does not help me with - I'll put them here:

1. (solved)
. . . How can I find a specific (block-)rock-type which I have already revealed somewhere ?
. . . . . e.g. - where was that gold-vein ?

2. (solved)
. . . Will Caravans be able to cross horizontal axles ?



thanks in advance . . .

DF Gameplay Questions / Item-Info ? (Solved)
« on: October 11, 2018, 10:57:59 am »
I installed the latest Starter Pack and have this question:

when I hit 'k' and browse the (embark)-map I get a list of objects to the right, which I can browse with '+' and '-'

but what then ? what commands are applicable when I have highlighted an object in this list ?

E.g. there is an ant-hill and I'd like to get some verbose information on it.


thank you for your time . . .

DF Suggestions / UI still horrible ? off for another year
« on: April 19, 2013, 07:08:54 am »
well - i really want to love DF.
i can live with ASCII-grafics.

i cannot, however, live with a horrible user interface.

unintuitive - unconsistent - almost no mouse support.

it isn't that difficult to redo the UI i would imagine - especially compared by the amount of work which is done to other parts of the game.

well - i think this is very sad and i will come back in a year to see if this got better.
