DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Your favourite WATER feature?
« on: February 02, 2009, 07:45:23 pm »
Waterfalls. The bigger the better. Currently my record is a 15tile level wide 7z tall waterfall on "small" major river. (note that major rivers can vary from between 15 and 40+ tiles wide depending only on how water has flown into them upstream).
Yeah, i'm really hanging out for a 30 tile wide waterfall.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Ways to kill nobles
« on: February 02, 2009, 05:52:46 am »
Too be that atm i can't build a chair over a retractable brigde, so i have to wait the noble to step on the right spot.
As far as i'm aware, Floor grates retract instantly. So do this
Code: [Select]
+#
+###
+GL#
+###
+#
make the noble pull that leaver and they should be guaranteed an instant fall.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Colander Trap
« on: February 02, 2009, 01:42:42 am »
I've got an even better idea, noting that corpses never fly around, while bodyparts do
Basically, you have a long drop with a pedestal located higher up above your temple. when the beast falls, it hits the pedestal and explodes. body parts go flying. any that fly outwards then sink down to below where your temple floor is, but the corpse stays on the pedestal. Its a good colander substitute, but i dunno if its funny.
Code: [Select]
# wall
. open space
+ floor
Z+1 to +9000!

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Rate my living space?
« on: February 01, 2009, 07:29:55 pm »1x2 rooms can be as good as ever, so long as you provide your dwarves with appropriate art. I can't tell when my dwarves are sleeping, though...Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The only problem i can see you having there is the fact that engravings are directional.

Someone even built a big one before we got the neat new multiple constructs thing.

Ah, now, if you all started at once as one big group it would be a lot more fun. things get done faster, you could go off together so you'd be safe but also far enough to find trees etc. that's what we did with infinity, and it worked (well for a few months).

GG guys, you've managed to turn a thread about a game into a very pointless debate about the technicalities of 3D and 2D.
So anyway, i've played wurm for a long time, and i could help. if you ever got your act together.

Actually, once the siege is lifted, their only objective is to escape. if you released them outside their walls, they'd leave the map.

Only problem is that a guy at the bottom right has to walk all the way across west, then up, then east, then up, then west again just to get some food. make an opening near those stairs.

« on: February 01, 2009, 01:53:56 am »Be careful, with your coffins... wood and other materials might float
Which would be pretty cool if it actually worked.
Sorry, but no floating (...yet. as with all things)
They do get pushed around, however. The bones that is, due to a bug. Best to say, seal around to the coffin with windows or something.
