DF Suggestions / Autoinclude low-level tasks in Job Menu orders
« on: March 03, 2009, 02:53:17 am »
I searched for a bit and I couldn't find anything. Basically it occurs to me that the manager, being a live dwarf, ought to know that when I say I need 20 serrated iron discs if I've got unsmelted iron laying around but no bars then he ought to also order up some bars to be made.

It's not total automation, which would kill a good chunk of the fun, but it makes more sense than needing to add the two orders manually and then keep waiting for the smelter to catch up with the forge.

DF Gameplay Questions / How far inwards do goblins' ambushes spawn?
« on: March 01, 2009, 01:04:31 am »
I've got a relatively well developed fort and enough of pretty much anything except coal to make pretty much anything I want, and with my magma forge area filling up soon that won't be a problem either. Only difficulty is that my wood source is outside and it doesn't seem to matter how well I wall off the edges of the map the bastards still spawn INSIDE my fortifications.

So, is there some limit to how far from the map edge they're allowed to spawn or will they just keep spawning closer and closer to my front gate the closer I set my defenses?
