Well.. When it looks like intention is to deceive... I have to call it as I see it.

Maybe it really was all accidental... but everything basically looks like it was taken from a page of how to get people to download malware instead of their intended program.... *not saying it is Malware, just that the same types of trickery they use to get people to download their crap instead of legitimate applications was used for that*

IE: an increment in version from the official release, Using the same name plus something else, not specifying it was not an official release.. ect..

Many people are obviously in the mistaken belief that:

1. You are the author of DT

2. This is an official DT release.

You may wish to put some nice red text at the beginning clarifying your post is not official.

Edit: Removed accusatory tone.  Should be more careful with my words. Sorry bout that.

Yes but I'm sure marketing told them that Canola oil would sell better than "Rape Oil"

LOL yeah I bet 4chan would have a field day with rape oil canisters..

Dwarf Companion link is on the wiki.
And it works perfectly.

Also please add my Dwemer Fortress [The Elder Scrolls] mod to the list. I didn't know there's another one TES mod though, I am going to check if it has any graphics and dwemer content .

I would have to debate the "works perfectly" tag.  It works acceptably, but causes some oddball things in certain instances. It also has problems with pulling thoughts, and in certain instances has been known to lock up on me. There was also an instance where it corrupted DF for me.

I am not saying it's bad... Considering what it  messes around with it does really good... Just I would be cautious when using it. Follow directions carefully, make backups, expect oddities.  Nothing wrong with that though... Just not "perfect"  and not near as polished and user friendly as say Dwarf TheRapist or Dwarf Manager.


As for your mod:

Come on guys. Toady may check this thread. And say: "What? Do I code for these morons? I'd better get a life instead!"

So sssshh!

There is a MASSIVE difference between Excessively Creative Sadomasochistic Dwarf Fortress Players Blowing off Magma and morons =p

If there were any, I would bust out the sign!

Yeah, but I didn't believe them... I kinda believe myself...

Course toad only has 10 days left now if that was the case and there are a lot of un-finished items to knock down in that time so looks like I am probably over optimistic, but it still could happen.

I think this should really only be applied to traders.. I know that the fort wealth computations are a lil on the flaky side.. however its the traders where the problems become most glaring.

I think a better formula would be for traders and have it be slightly more complicated.

I am thinking:

Price = Default / ( 1 + (Items Sold - Demand) * Price Factor)

(Note: if items sold is less than demand, the price will actually increase by design)

This would allow a lot more variability in the economy and allow for raw file tweaking of it.

For example. if you wanted the price of Microline Mugs to fall faster and rise sharper you could increase the "Price Factor" variable in a raw.

If you wanted to have a high demand item like dwarven wine have a higher default price unless a lot was sold, you could set the "Demand" in the raws to a higher value.

I think this would add some needed flexibility and would prevent low value but numerous items from collapsing too fast and high value low demand items from having only trivial price reductions if done right.

* demands would likely be procedurally generated in the future by each civilization, based on their production capacities, the wares price, "desperation levels", and stockpile levels.

Umm don't have a fancy haiku... But I remember the thing to memorize the color bands on resistors...

"Bad Beer Rots Our Young Guts But Vodka Goes Down Well"

Also the other version "Bad Boys rape our young girls, but violet gives willingly.("for silver and gold" sometimes added)"
