DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Temperature and Time

How much does the temperature (in DF degrees) vary from day to night? Does the temperature remain constant underground?

DF Modding / An Epic Undertaking: Digging the Underdark
« on: November 11, 2008, 09:09:10 pm »
Quite some time ago, someone proposed the creation of an Underdark mod. The problem was the fact that we couldn't make the entire world underground. I think we can.

Suppose that we created the Underdark creatures and races and generated a pocket world. It would have to be a pocket world to make plausible the endeavour I'm about to present. Could we then use Fortress Mode to dig the Underdark ourselves?

There's the matter of the civilsations not appearing underground, but we could embark on top of their cities. All found indoors would be promptly sealed inside, and the rest would be slaughtered. Then we could open up a tunnel to the Underdark in the floors. If that wouldn't work, perhaps they could be caged and released into our Underdark cities.

This would indeed be a massive task, and require much aid from the Dwarf Companion. I present this to you because I've never played Dungeons and Dragons, and I know not what to add to the mod. I think this would be best done by the community as one person would likely grow weary of such an undertaking, and it would lead to more interesting designs if more people dug the Underdark.

Is this plausible?

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / What's all this?
« on: November 07, 2008, 05:52:15 pm »
The last time I played Dwarf Fortress was probably about six months ago. Are these wars taking place during world generation? Those goblins must get their asses kicked often, because I'm seeing humans in dark towers. Megabeast rampages?! Is that a road? My lifeless corpse was impaled on a pike? Awesome.

Life Advice / Fenrir has been taken by a fey mood!
« on: November 06, 2008, 07:06:03 pm »
I'm trying to make something in C++. I know what it looks like, but I don't know what it's called.

It's a user interface. Notepad, Wordpad, and my browser, are all examples. There are too many examples to list them all. These UIs usually have a bar at the top full of drop down lists, and the one all the one on the left is typically called "File". Most of the time "File" is accompanied by "Edit". Do you know what I mean? Is there a name for that sort of interface? What library can be used to make it?

EDIT: I mean the user interface as a whole, not just that top bar I mentioned.

DF Modding / Clean Language Files
« on: November 05, 2008, 09:11:00 pm »
I'm trying to make it so my brother can play DF, but he can't do that until all innuendo and profanity has been purged from the language files. Damn there a lot of words! Has anyone already done this?
