Bay 12 Games Forum

I just had the most heartwarming moment I've seen in this game.

See, when I first broke the caverns, one of my starting seven got killed by a troll. Badass unarmed wax worker and a migrant swordsdwarf took care of it (this same wax worker, before I even added her to the military, killed a helmet snake by throwing it into a wall,) life went on.

Just now, I was loading up the trade depot and noticed that one of the crafts was a figurine of the dead dwarf.

"This is a figurine of 'Prima' Blazeinked and butterflies in phyllite by Oddom Urmimsigun. 'Prima' Blazeinked is surrounded by the butterflies."

Possible glitch: In the embark menu, generic "stone" is showing up under powders. It goes away if I remove the mod.

Pretty sure it's not hurting anything, but it's a thing, anyway.

I tried to embark on a nice-looking site, intrigued by the presence of "very high cliffs" on the embark screen where there probably shouldn't have been (swamp, though at the base of a mountain.)

The game froze so hard the MP3 I had playing started skipping.

I tried another nearby site without the extreme cliffs, and there's a cotton candy spire piercing the surface up to a couple z-levels above ground. Not sure how that happened, because nothing's coming up in the error log- no duplicate raws- and the only other sign of weirdness I've found is generic "stone" being available as a powder in the embark screen, which I suspect is from the expanded glazes mod.

However it happened, I think this fort will be entertaining.

The crematorium mod that was floating around a while back turned vermin remains (as well as a couple of otherwise useless body parts e.g. cartilage) into ash.

They're different colors than rust red is what I was getting at. I think you can get more than one color out of copper glazes too? It's no big deal though.

I'd suggest adding celadon and tenmoku glazes just because they're relatively famous (well, enough to have their own wikipedia articles anyway) but apparently those are both iron-based and there's already a glaze assigned to iron here.

I played around a bit and managed to glaze multiple objects at once, if that's useful to anyone. Figured since crafts are made in batches, they might as well be glazed in batches too.

Here are the reactions for multiglazing crafts:


And just for the heck of it, I slapped reactions together to glaze bricks and hives, since it bugged me that the vanilla raws let you make clay ones but not glaze them. The letters used are kind of random, I've been meaning to go through and set it up so there's no overlaps.
