DF General Discussion / Re: New Version Release Day Donatathon!
« on: January 07, 2010, 03:43:10 pm »
OK, I throw 50 EUR (about 71 USD) into the pot, additionaly, I will quadruple my monthly donation from 5 to 20 EUR (about 28 USD) for at least the next 12 Month. So thats  71+12*21=323 USD more from me compared to a "standard year".

But it is okay if you list me up with 71 USD ;-)

DF General Discussion / Re: Grade Dwarf Fortress

I have no idea what grades and letters do, the grades in all schools I know is a number of 1-10.

I dunno very well, but if I compare to the german rating scheme that is used in schools, that would be something like:

A very good (95%+)
B good (90%-95%)
C average (75%-90%)
D just enough (50%-75%)
(E not enough (25%-50%))
F very bad (0%-25%)

There are other scales for the percentage, so in the german armed forces you need at least 75% for getting a D in many cases, 60% in some other.

At some point, one of the cats we had learned how to turn the doorknobs. Round, metallic doorknobs. Don't ask me how - we never really figured it out. But he could consistently open the door of my room from the inside.

Until now I didn't see such... but I can see teamwork with my cats... Sometimes I needed to lock in the two, for different reasons. The door was just closed, not locked, and opens to the inside. After two hours the cats were out... A day or two later I locked them in again and cleaned up that room, still an eye for the cats. After an hour the first cat jumped on the knob while the other on was pulling the door with the paws.

It looked somewhat strange to see them working together, normaly there is some kind of safety distance of ~6 feet between them...

Hi!

Is there a way to test the In-Dev-Verison?

I think it is a pity, that there passed over a year since the last release...

In generall I would appreciate more and smaller releases.

It is really anoying to me, to read about all the new awesome features or work in progress nearly daily in the dev log, but not able to test any small bit of it. First I thougt the 40d16 (and similar) would be what I search, but I cant really find the new features on a first view, the new graphic engine seems to be really the only change against 40d-standard. Or are there the changes and I dont look deep enough?
