What about running a fort mode fort then allowing pleyers to take control of a dorf, do jobs, fight, etc? Just make sure they don't go on a killing spree and cause a loyalty cascade.

That is in the plans. I was thinking of two choices (for server): either let dwarf "start" jobs on their own (more work for me though). That way you could go to a workshop (or construct your own) and make yourself a battleaxe. Or just allow working on available jobs. Maybe suspended too (less work for me). This way would better integrate with vanilla job management.

I think i'll post approximate roadmap in the first post.

If this happens, this will be the game's first true community game.

A large fortress stockpile with workshop rooms going outwards from it. In the lower corners, there are either offices, or stairs to more stockpiles. Individual rooms nonexistent, just a smallish room chock full of beds.

I'm curious how you're implementing the diep.io mod. How do you model transformations between tank types? An interaction is the obvious  way to go, but how do you delay the ability to use the interaction until you have scored enough points -- and for that matter, how do you define points?

Never really thought of that. Maybe add a grasp to the tanks, then use the corpses of tanks to gain some items called points. Once you scored enough, you can do an interaction that transforms you into another tank.

What, if anything, will be changed/new in Legends mode for this the artifact release?

Most likely improved artifacts tab. Not only books showing up.

Spike tank?

It's a rammer tank in diep.io. Spiketank done.

Not exactly, unless you count carefully replacing everything that spawns in the biome.

Well, I basically deleted every creature and started modding diep.io tanks. Might replace the grass with a thing called "grid" that is white and shows up as +.

Just release them. Into your execution pit.
