DF Gameplay Questions / My Weaponsmith won't work
« on: December 31, 2007, 01:45:00 pm »
Hi everyone

i'm having trouble with my Legendary Weaponsmith / Legendary BookKeeper / Mayor / Accomplished Grower...

He became legendary weaponsmith with a fey mood after he reached legendary bookkeeper through updating stock records

Problem is : he won't work at my magma furnace to make weapons

The only jobs he's allowed to do are : Weaponsmithing - Health Care - Cleaning
The magma furnace has the following jobs : make steel crossbow x2 - make steel bolts (R)

No other dwarf has the weaponsmith job enabled

The damn weaponsmith still says "no job" in the Unit list

Help me please, i'm really lost

thanks in advance

or modify the goblins so they siege you instead of sending a bunch of pussy babysnatchers ;-)

I just did, and believe me, i'm having all the action i could want : it's year 3, early spring, i've had three sieges, two of them including troll squads.

And i have 48 dwarves (i limit population to 50 because my computer sucks).

I didn't count, but i'd say i've killed at least 25 goblins and 15 trolls.

The hauling of their clothes is a total pain in the ass, though. I gotta find a way to have goblins attackers wear armors but no clothes.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

If the liaison is following your miner, it means they aren't done discussing the trade agreement, and it might be best for you to prevent your leader from mining for a little while, so he can handle the liaison.

You dont want the liaison to leave unhappy, do you?  ;)

I think once the barrels are full of food, they'll haul the barrels to the food stockpile.

In my map, the most common wild animals are horses and groundhogs.

Is there a way to turn those into hydras or dragons or some other stuff like that without having to create a new game?

If there is, how would that work?

I guess i could try that, but as i said in the OP :

Could you be a little more specific on how i could manage to get this result?

DF Gameplay Questions / Little help modifying the game files

Hi everyone

I finally admitted in pain that my computer definitely won't handle large population forts.

Which means i miss out on plenty cool stuff, mainly the mega beasts attacks and the goblin sieges.

I think they are only triggered by high populations, but since i have to play with limited pop (i made it max 50 dwarves), i was wondering if it would be possible to alter the game files so that megabeasts and sieges would occur even if my population is 50, depending solely on the wealth.

And if it is possible, then how the hell would one do it? I've never messed with the game files before (except for the init file) and i'm quite a dumbo when it comes to programming and such.

Any help on the subject will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

I never tried but this part at least is easy : its just about finding a common multiple of 7 and 4. For instance, if you empty a 4 tiles room with 7/7 water into a 7 tiles room, u'll get 7 squares with 4/7 water in it.

I always have plenty of legendary pump operators in my fortresses, that's what i use to "pump up" the peasants stats

I noticed that legendary pump operators take much longer than noobs before they are exhausted and can no longer pump, but i dont know if they pump more water, because my pumps are nowhere near water, its basically a work-out room.
