« on: November 26, 2009, 02:31:30 am »Champions don't shoot that fast, it's like 5-7 spaces per, but, you mustn't of studied your cmv video files.QuoteI see many things wrong with these pictures.
The Xbow dwarves shoot slower than that, clothing is only one kind of brackets, natural walls don't look like that when bloodied.
Heh, you've never seen chamption markdwarves rain bolts on the enemy. Consider the armor falling around the gobbos.QuoteCan you explain to me what is with the green highlighted elf, and the tiles directly next to him, and what the hell is with the lava!?
And downward ramps don't point that way.
Boatmurdered! A tentacle demon escaped and is currently manifesting corrupt intentions on a liason. That makes a quite a mess, y'know? A great white mess... The other two elves are about to commit suicide by lava.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: An Advanced Repeater
« on: November 25, 2009, 11:22:34 pm »
Hmm, this could be usefull for a double repeater ( two functions ) , but pumps pump a lot faster than you think, and how fast gear assemblies disconnect.
10p per pump, 1p per tile of axle, and 5p per gear assembly...
32p... from what is displayed.
Remember, I'm always there when one needs DF Engineering Help, and I'm trying to build a clock, a water logic clock.
Here is another thing, floodgates/bridges open/lift within 100ticks, and the opposite is true.
The design only needs one tiles of 7/7 water, and it doesn't take that much labor to assemble this.

I imagine forts where not only are work rooms not just 3x3, but there are enviroments undergrounds. Lava enviroments, winter wonderlands, vein intersections and all kinds of neat-o things.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Corpse identification
« on: November 25, 2009, 12:36:21 pm »
There is like ~47 parallel topics about this.
Some of them include, locating corpse of deceased by the unit list zoom function.
Identifying their bones/whatever they decay into.
And having a deconstructed coffin not drop it's contents when you want to move it to the honorary military mausoleum.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Oh my god the possibilities
« on: November 25, 2009, 02:40:22 am »So, the Kobolds come up as "Friendly". Is that just because you embarked there, or do they default to Friendly anyway, and then just take your stuff because they're kleptomaniacs?It's a glitch, if you embark onto a site that has a civ, they'll become friendly.IfWhen they die, will they be carted off to dwarf sarcophogi?
Here is a personal example of this glitch:
I wanted to have a challenge, so I embarked next to the largest possible gob tower I could find, and bam, ALL FRIENDLY, abandoned, and tried again, with all other hostile civs, friendly, friend, no stabby, ally, chum, COMPLETE BULLSHIT D: .
Oh, and the coffin thing, depends if you allow the dwarves to collect, and bury any body.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: The Point of No Return
« on: November 24, 2009, 11:34:57 pm »
Heh, the point of no return was inevitable for me, I think it started when my eyes desynchronized, and one of them only saw darkness. This is what opened me up to the opposite of the optimistic naivety, realistic, and spiteful.
You have idea how entertaining it is when the two combine, when, and after it happens.
When I saw Df... and CC, I learned how both worked, in CC I learned how to kill gruesomely ( from person to mist to killing it's teammates with what's left of the person ) , and DF, I learned how to over-engineer and create a nation that has mortality rates that exceed the net profit of the Halo series, and somehow keep nation from "The Last Spiral", and how to depict very epic, one-side battles, with DFPaint.

« on: November 23, 2009, 06:11:56 pm »It isn't rasism, it rascism if you put a race down, not a proffession, it's just that cheese makers don't do jack shit.So not only are you racist against... whatever color cheese/soap makers are, you draft them!Cheese makers have almost zero mortality rate in my fortresses; by the time they die they're wrestlers, swordsdwarves or similar....doesn't get racism. I mean come on they just have a different profession.Precisely, and who has a higher mortality rate in your fortresses, cheese-makers or insert-job-here?
Exactly, it's the soap makers who die the most.
Nah, same thing happens to them, except on the rare occasions when i decide to build a road out of soap.
You are of many kinds in the South American rivers.it turns out the fish you should be afraid of in real life is the hell fiends of South America, are the cat fish, deadlier than hippos, and piranhas, crocodiles, and sharks.
Thank you for your kind support.
Our Manifesto begins like carp; we generally drag people into rivers and drown them and so on, once the dwarfs have crossbows though we unlease our secret weapon.
Taking up the second part of our name to heart we impliment the =catfishsplosion=, that's right, after killing your dwarves we go for the fps...
There are those tiny catfish that have been known to eat human inside out ( only leaving bullet sized holes in the skin ) .And then there are the giant catfish, that can in any proportion swallow teenagers whole, and succumb to weeks on satiation.
There are many kinds of catfish, but most of the ones that can kill you, can also keep you in the water, or drag you into the water.

Oh, and I now treasure my rock salt even more.
I got so curious about why the carp are so overpowered that I researched about aquatic animals, it turns out the fish you should be afraid of in real life is the hell fiends of South America, are the cat fish, deadlier than hippos, and piranhas ( they are actually pacifistic, til you get near their nests or panic ) , crocodiles ( hippos kill more than crocodiles ) , and sharks ( they rarely bite us out of curiosity, and we hunt them ever-closer to extinction ) .

DF General Discussion / Re: A Scholarly Dwarf Fortress?
« on: November 18, 2009, 08:39:16 pm »The mood system is one of the most unrealistic subsystem of DF, yes. In real world, after months of a terrible war and after losing half of a population, the people of a human village will rejoice when invader left the country. In DF, they'll all turn insane and commit suicide due to the accumulated sorrow.THEY ARE SAD BECAUSE HALF OF THE COMMUNITY IS DEAD, AND PLUS, they just tired out the enemy, not really much to celebrate about!!!
And yes, in the other hand, a dwarf that suddenly lose his lover, parents, cat, and both eyes to a goblin attack will soon be ecstatic again after several meals in that royal dining room.
