When I fire from crossbow game moves really fast for like 10x10 rounds so I am usually unsure where did that bolt go. Is there a way to slow it somehow?
If you're simply asking for the sake of science, learning, et cetera, then yes, lowering FPS to a ridiculous degree should help, and then you can look for the broken bolt more easily.

However, you cannot pick up fired bolts, so finding out where they go isn't really too useful. Look for a little sign which is a < with an underscore under it, that's a broken bolt/arrow.
I have not intended to pick up those bolts I rather was wondering if there is a way to see what is hapenning. Because when I fire at 15 tiles far enemy everything moves for like 10 rounds. It seems you are unable to do anything while the bolt flies or just some fixed amount of time after shooting so game just jumps forward in like 1 second over this interval :/ I would think you order firing, fire in just one or two rounds and then should be able to order other commands (move, attack, look around, fire again). Maybe I am just too slow in reloading of crossbows.
Yes that sounds like slow realoadin to me. I suggest like everybody else has, throw the bolts/arrows.

also have you even told any one from the fortress? Maybe the dont know you exist

Hm... Now that I have never done.
(or more like I have done it, I just never reclaimed the fortress afterwards.)

I'll have to try that and see if any of the engravers decide to engrave something related to the hero.

I would have expected that dwarves from migrations, or the liaison, would have told your parasite important nobles about it.
After all, the liaison informs your nobles about other things happening in the world.
Yeah but not if the liaison doesnt know either.
Haha yeah imagine rumours are like a close range virus and only if the people interact will they learn about it.
As you should know by now people are always talking about events to eachother and its only then does the rumor spread.

Could be screwed up but I think its to do with how relevant you and the beast are to the civ.
They may not care about a dragon and an adventurer, but socks ohh boy lets engrave socks and myself

Edit: also have you even told any one from the fortress? Maybe the dont know you exist

As far as how stacks work in this game confuses me. Ive noticed it and bones are just thrown that way.
Other stacks break up though. You can hold hundreds off meat but only throw one.
So there isnt a fix is my best answer.

As far as the coins. They may have a weight attatched to them according to the metal they are made of. So in theory gold should be bettet than copper. Maybe lead coins are better though

So lord Kapila was said to have told people about the elements and metaphysics but it was forgotten about.
Why would this happen?
And by elements it is phrased 'creative elements' what could this be?
The only mention I can find of this is either roughly similar to the classical elements, or about something else entirely.

Oh yes thats right 24 elements of creation and the soul being 25.

He told the brahmana asuri.

I like joking around, classical music, dogs for their loyalty, chocolate, dancing, cats for their curiosity. When possible runs away from confrontation.
Im arrogant its my most endaring feature, I absolutly detest the heat

Yes, its true that people say they have found in many different places. But the thing is, only one can be right! Christianity doesnt allow for other religions to be correct at the same time. It just doesnt. So the real question is: Which one is the correct one?

All are
If their was a religion exactly the same as christianty (there are) and you follow it to the letter. The bible still says you go to hell.
If anything god could just see all religions are the same and only demolish the true 'sinners'

God made all the religions. How can they be wrong?

please dont think what I say makes me believe in a god

But its not just from reading any religious text that you can get this feeling from.
Or all the other religions wouldnt exsist.
'Gods grace'
Can be attained upon killing for the first time, from stress, harm. Many ways allow you to experience a powerful spiritual feeling. so its hard to believe that somebody says theyv now believe in god because of love as much as it to say you found god murdering.
I do believe youv found peace.
But when people say they have found it in so many different ways its hard to have faith in anything.
This is why I think many people are atheists.

Yeah killing if fine in gods eyes. Its the killing of 'innocents' that is wrong. Nobody being innocent and all being sinners.
So killing in selfdefence or in war is fine.
I asked a christian family once (had been kicked out of EVERY church they went to) if i meet a demon or lucifer and somejow killed them of it was an evil act. They said it was because murder is wrong, I laughed and hid the wooden stake

I visited my human fort/outpost to give them rare supplies to convert into items for her.
Its a good little system and makes time pass nice and quickly (i hope to see an adventurer die of old age).
She walks into the main food hall and the expedition leader starts talking to a cat about another cat that died. He must be a depressed guy. To answer your question, yes I killed the cat. I only had two males for vermin and when I came back they had somehow found a female cat and it had kittens ugh. So I butchered it for my men.

Ive been burning my fat off, I can see how insane most our adventurers get. Happily cursing themselves , burning fat off, killing for fun, dismemberment to your worst enemys and leaving them alive, WATER BENDING!
oh how far we have fallen.

Does anyones religion specificly say that you shouldnt kill somebody else that is under the influence of drugs??
the Gita says that.

Do I keep slightly derailing?
I mean I try to bring new concepts in with religious/spiritual angles


Edit: I wrote it wrong.
I mean killing a person on drugs. You are sober

I dont believe in good or evil.
That was called a terrible joke.
Im sorry you got offended by my lack of humour.
I still stand by the fact that psychology isnt a accurate science however.
If it was I would be sane

Can a person even survive having the corpus callosum severed?

Yeah suprisingly well too.
Its only used in extreme cases of epilepsy.

The test subjects patients say the feel well. But that could be the left side bullshiting you because its evil
I don't think you know how psychology works.

No I dont and neither do you.
Its speculation.
