Hey Guys, I just found a large 17 z-level major river waterfall, with chalk and sand (and aquifers... apparently. Somehow, I don't believe the warning though... Unfortunately, I didn't end up on the peninsula...

also, the waterfall is the major river, not the tributary.

edit: oh wow... I just noticed that the map was only 30 z-levels deep (for a total of ~60)

I recently came across a huge waterfall... though it was in a freezing biome... so... giant -frozen- waterfall!

Don't suppose you've got a screenshot of the embark screen showing location?

he doesn't have the seeds for the map, so this does not work.

63
Give to me! I want your seed!

Oh lordy. This wants rephrasing so badly, but I'm laughing too hard.

When possible he prefers to consume dwarf seed?

Aha! Dwarven cheese is the product of Dwarven milk, which is the extract of dwarven seed! Fascinating.

Male dwarves don't produce milk.

I'll just try again and... Oh, that's what you meant by the world instantly catching !!!fire!!!

edit: fyi: adventure mode fared no better... I melted in <25 steps.

I just checked out a world with such parameters. The ocean does disappear in an instant.

oddly enough, the jungle I embarked next to did not have it's murky pool evaporate. At all.

Edit: 1 dwarf survived... Hermit challenge!
double edit: or... not.

speaking of dwarven cheese, I've yet to see any purring maggots.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Magma Up or Dwarves Down?
« on: April 12, 2010, 07:25:05 pm »
I just use custom world gen to reduce the z-levels. It's much more manageable with fewer z-levels, especially if your magma is only 14 levels deep (penetrating the 1st cavern layer). Better FPS.

the only problem with this, is that lower caverns have more savage wildlife and plant types, and you get less HFS.

guys, I think it's generated in the world history.

One time, I downloaded a map, and embarked on a spot (which got burned down by fire imps). I re-downloaded the save, and re-embarked on the same spot, and nothing was different.

Also, if you gen a map using someone else's seed for a certain spot (assuming the same version), the site they used is still exactly the same.

... oh dear carp: the legends thing records whenever someone prepares a masterful lavish meal? This might turn a bit bloated or cluttered in a while.

Oh come on! Every great meal deserves to go down in something. Some meals go down in history, others go down in dwarf stomachs.

I actually rather like the new channeling system... wait a second, I forgot about how it generates 1-way ramps when I'm digging a pump-system to get magma to the surface...

nah, I still like it.

Yeah, I've found Medical to be swingy. I've gotten very, very few medicals ever, but one wave I got a surgeon, bone doctor, and suture...er...dwarf, on top of my starting doctor.

They left my best axedwarf to die of thirst with two broken legs twenty steps from the well furnished hospital...

On both fortresses I've done so far, I've gotten a Suturer, a Bone Doctor, and a Diagnostician in the first four waves.

I had 2 comedian bonedoctors in the same wave!

They brought me a pair of mating grizzlies, black bears, wolves, and giant eagles. Plus around 5 years worth of food and booze.
Hey! no fair, I didn't get any eagles with my bears! Only buzzards...
