But copyright doesn't protect ideas and concepts, his lawyers will have a hard time trying to prove a game is a copy of a book.

Heh, 173 actually came before the Weeping Angels, so it's the father-terror of the bunch.
When did 173 first appear? I'm genuinely interested which one is a knock-off.

Can a cap be worn with a helm? I know wiki says it can, but for some reason my dwarfs put only the helmet on.

I noticed that too, can they be used as a wood at all?
I was able to sell them, and they cost the same as other logs and show up with all other wood in traded goods list.

DF Gameplay Questions / Question about saving embark profile.
« on: March 29, 2012, 03:06:02 am »
When I load saved profile it says that preparations aren't complete as if some items were unavailable to my civ. But those items (prepared fish in particular) are available and I can choose them just fine from new item menu.
Am I doing something wrong or it's a bug?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: mini lags ?
« on: March 25, 2012, 09:20:44 am »
Starting from 31.18 I have the same 'mini lag' on default 4x4 embark, only more severe - every 2-3 seconds. I've tried many stuff, but the only thing that helped is smaller embark

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Planepacked v2: Sat Vumom, The Stroke of Savants (4983600☼)!
« on: March 16, 2012, 12:54:03 am »
Nice one, too bad it's only a scepter.
I had a shield once. The dwarf who made it refused to take anything but copper (despite liking fine pewter
), so I made him 'planepack' a bit. Strangely enough the base material wasn't copper but lead. Apparently the bug forces it to be chosen randomly from all the metals gathered.
Also 78 iron and 34 pig iron bars
Looks like a waste of strategic materials.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Safest way to get fell/macabre mood
« on: March 14, 2012, 06:13:03 am »
Slightly off-topic, but related question: is it possible to get fell mood artifact with 'planepacked' effect?
Does 'gathering materials' for them follow the same rules as for other moods?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Best/worst artifacts
« on: March 09, 2012, 04:59:44 am »
My best and most recent was a golden throne decorated with elephant leather and spikes of goblin bone.
In weapons and armor the best so far were golden hammer and lead shield with image of the dwarven king in human bone.
Also, my dwarfs seem to like making gem coffins. Coolest was amethyst one. It would look awesome IRL.

« on: March 09, 2012, 03:53:45 am »
I also had traders refusing to leave. They were scared by kea woman and ceased trading, but sat in the depot (with six wagons) for almost two years before being slaughtered by goblins. Interestingly, while they were around no other traders showed up at all.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Confession: I think vampires are a terrible addition
« on: March 05, 2012, 01:38:24 pm »Quote
I think the addition of vampires has made DF less fun.Not at all. Twilight Dorfs; a total departure from the milieu. A huge waste of priceless coding time and effort.
<...>
Am I alone here?
YMMV of course.
It's not that they make DF less fun, but it just feels like a step away from 'Dwarf Fortress' towards 'Bunch of Random Fantasy Creatures Fortress'.
Erm. In a world that already has goblins, elves, demons...?
All of which are not a part of your fortress. Again, it's only my opinion but a vampire dwarf sounds a bit silly.
