DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Cavern of 2 z levels height
« on: March 16, 2020, 06:51:23 am »
Thanks,
in this case the 2 level stairs were digged thrue small parts of a present wall in the Cavern.
I made wooden walls for blocking the remaining open area of the stairs connected with the existing rock walls in the cavern.

Its now sealed off the cavern fromthe fortress  ..when i remove a wall and place a door  ..i could go into the caverns if i dare.

Did it fail a strange mood?

And yes, that will shock other dwarves. That's why you need to not fail strange moods.
How to to know afterwards that the dwarven child could not make a legendary artifact ? ..let's find out

I made a staircase, but it is 2 z levels heigth in the cavern and mined deep
The dwarfs mined this out as there were 2 existing z layers

Seems to that when they made a down stair at a bottom layer and brake thru the floor ..they saw a dark cavern below
It probably simplified this game enviroment ?   

It's a open connection now from the cavern to the fortress: what creep comes up ..  :P

Thanks
Dwarven child is  ( message from df hack at start and not a anouncement (a) in DF):
- starving
- dehydrated
The child is insane and running around babbling , so i can't help this child and then it must soon be  buried, otherwise it will shock other dwarfs when they see him dead laying on the floor.
The childeren sleep in a dormitory.

How to save the life of this child it has a blue Arrow (status icon) on it
The message was starving i thought so, while it is thirsty ?

There are drinks enough, so i add new barrels at top priority then to let the dwarf child to able to drink. ?

Pay attention to the miasma ( diagonal entrance )  and body remains cleaning and emergency health messages in the fortress

Then dehydration has nothing to do with a shortage of water, but with a shortage of alcohol
I thought that i had brewed enough drinks, but i read also that a every dwarf needs his own barrel for drinking

That could be maybe the cause of the dehydration ?

Water can be used for lots of things!
Part of the fun of Dwarf Fortress is working out complicated things to do with water and watching them go wrong and drowning all your dwarves.

Watermanagement comes in play.. dehydrating seems to be now the cause of the destruction of my Fortress
Is "dehydrating" for water specific or also a shortage of alcohol drinking too ? 

Not everyone is drinking alcohol ..how about babies and dwarven youngsters? ..haha

Water from an aquifer can be used to drink, yes. Just put a well over it.

Perhaps i can also use the water from the aquifer to fill the moat ..is a pump necessary?
And building a well inside above light aquifer.

I need some water for drinking,  but there is no water source outside
Then i could use water from a light aquifer ?
The water mechanics ?

A lot of animals are starving  ..do they get no water?

Best way to find fortress stocks of types of alcohol is through the z menu: z -> kitchen -> drinks. 
Thanks
That makes it a lot easier to know what drinks are consumed
Is it not that the dwarf get a better mood of drinking liquor ?
