The name of my current fortress' location: The Fresh Forest of Executioners. Awesome.

Second artifact made there: An iron scepter called "The Permanent Sack."

DF Gameplay Questions / WHat is the process for trading to successfully complete
« on: February 17, 2008, 11:08:00 pm »
I've played through at least 10 game years in various different locations/worlds and I don't think I've ever managed to actually complete a trade. I get some combination of screens related to trading, but I must not get them all.

Can someone please list the screens that comprise the trading process so I can see which ones I'm missing?

I know what I have to do as a player to trade (bring goods to the depot, make sure the depot's accessible, make sure my broker is available), but I never seem to geta screen that tells me how much stuff is worth and what exactly they're buying/I'm buying.

You can also use eclipse with a plug-in for C++ development. Eclipse is awesome and free. The more I use it, the more I like it.

I would suggest just learning C#, which basically has all the good points of Java (aside from relative platform independence, though the mono project is getting there) with few of the negative ones. It's also still evolving and has some incredible new stuff added to it, like WPF (Windows Presentation Framework) and LINQ.

I'm across the country.  :( We need an east coast DFers meet up.

Someone has to take videos of what happens. Or, better yet, make ascii depictions of what happens.
