I had a good idea just now, and i thought i'd display it... hopefully it wasn't already done/has been suggested.

The thing is, preparing for an underground farm is a bit annoying, but, what if you could MOVE the dirt into an area, and use that as your farm? Think about it, you could make a farm in/near the dining hall, and make food easier to collect. It should be possible enough, right?

I'm hoping it still exists, cuz i feel like playing it now, so let me see if i can describe it.

It's basically like a text-based rpg game, based off of DND rules (which i'm talking about ROLLING), and you roll your stats that you get, and... i dunno about skills though. But when you start, i think you start off in a town, and theres this one adventure i think the second one where you start off with getting past 2 trolls to go into a cave area, and you can use a skill to map it out or something.

Theres tons of other areas, and a useless shop that seems to sell useless items, which leaves the needs to fight for good items. Not to mention theres this one quest i remember that you have to fight subsequent fights to get good items, and can do it more then once for a better one, and i dunno if it's a large amount like maybe being able to do it 10 times or more, never went past the second.

Not to mention the boat adventure... and stuff.

And access to an adventurer premium service for cents a year i think, that lets you have good stuff, and i think it's a if you buy it on a week, you get special stuff off it.

So i hope i detailed it enough for you guys to know, and hope it's still alive. So anyone remember the game?


Edit: And after about 3 minutes later checking my e-mail, BOOM, there it is... Sryth

Whenever i try to find an AVI on my computer, it won't show up, except on some lists, it does. Is there anyway to fix this?

Anyone know where it'd be? Because i can't remember.

Couldn't find it with search.

So, i was thinking. Maybe we could be able to set out own laws, allowing the justice system to crackdown more on many things. And when we can prepare it up with guards, we can later move forward with a plan to force them. To be honest, i think it should also help cause fun, and piss off/scare dwarves that don't want that kind of law.

Lets say, once you begin to prepare getting a justice system in working order, you could setup some laws for them to follow. For example, setting it up where going all tantrum and throwing stuff around here and there could be set to warning/chain/cage/beating/major beating/death, and it'll be pretty big. Basically handling an entire fortress and it's laws to the letter, allowing you to customize it to your liking, easily making it possible to become any fortress you like. Heck, it'd be fun to setup a fortress which has a law that bans cats, and any cats coming in are butchered. Even elves coming near or into your fortress could be killed on the spot, which would cause even more fun.

It's just, having to setup the entire laws than wondering what each one is and it's severity would be pretty nice.

I can't figure out how to do this, or tell what in world generation adds them. I keep thinking it's Drainage.

Does anyone know to lower the aquifier count?

I've been wanting to simulate this, however, i don't know a way to get random seeds enough to get it to work. If anyone found a seed with the bug happening, can you tell me? I just wanna find out how dangerous it can be.

Also, the one video simulating it, is it possible to push a Magma vent on the surface, or perhaps... in the air? I'm sure it may get a bit dangerous with something like that, but i was only wondering.
