Meh, what the hell, a carbon-copy reply to a carbon-copied post.

Here is my story:



I modded my game so i could start as a bronze collusus, just to see how much stuff i could kill. After  going through and slaying everyone i could see in a random human town, I came across the survivors, 3 children.

After a short fight one of the children managed to kill me with one punch, without and of the children coming to any harm themselves.

The end

 (apologies for my lack of drawing skill)

All those children needed then was a big ol' orchestrated battle theme as they slayed you. That would've been epic. I think they found the weak points and jabbed them out of commission.

It honistly ISENT that hard to just tell em to Smooth the walls...I think the only time you cant is if you keep making forts in hills of Loam or something Like I keep doing...

Imagine being able to build sand castles (not converted into glass, that's cheating. Literally sand castles).

Wouldn't that be funny.

Here's a little something I made while dwarfing the forums. A little bit of bastardization of nature in a very dwarfy way.

Behold, the worst thing to ever encounter... Bred by yours truly... The n-th wonder of the world:

A CARIPPOPARPAMUS!!!!

_{Carippo for short}



EDIT:
I'll try to color it in when I have some free time.

Idea for regulating flow, and underflow prevention.

Be sure to have an auxiliary pump, triggerable, of course, pumping outside of the unit. Doing so for a split-second, or having an automatic mechanism that handles that at a properly timed interval (IE- Clock Mechanism). That would then solve the cardiac arrest that occurs.

One pump should do fine regardless of the size. Heck, you can even pump into a temporary evaporation (if above ground) reservoir that can flow back in if too much water is collected, of course, with a manual pump (for precision). But if it works properly, it won't require it. But one can't be too safe now could they?

Hmm 3GB of DF stuff. Though, I have never cleaned it out as i have plenty of space to spare. It's getting pretty hard to navigate through it all, and finding the right DF folder as I haven't really named any in a recognizable order. Haha, the way i do it now is i label the folder I am currently playing as 'currently playing' or something else to that affect. Only problem is I now have 3 folders named like this so i don't know which one i am actually playing  . I don't suggest this organization method to others...

IMG=Folders hehe.

Hmm, I have a similar way, of course seperating from simple changes and whatnot. Kinda wish I remember to use a fresh installation instead when I first started it. It takes a bit to delete all those exrta images as well as saves and gens. Though, it does make some things interesting if adding/removing things in during a game can alter the universe.

Like, for example, I have a well running fort, and now all of a sudden, my livestock is overrun with brahmin from the fallout mod, or something like that.

Kinda gives me an idea for the side. How about I try to mod stuff in as I play? Like the nuclear catsplosion thing, except have them babbling as well or something like that, and not nuclear, just plain burning, while (if possible) fireproof, but still feeling pain? Sounds fun. Heck, I'll even see if I can genetically mutate all my local cats into carippos or something.

EDIT:
BTW, Boatmurdered Sucessor; is it related to Boatmurdered in any way? (IE, is the location/save?) If so, UPLOAD!

I like it. You can easily tell wood and copper apart (relevant to my project).




For full effect, I'd like to see bridges rendered soon enough.

Holy crap, I got some really good ones. Each separated by category. Many of them are funny, others are pure horrifying. Especially the carp and tentacle demon. Yikes.
