DF Gameplay Questions / Re: So, cats can store items in stockpiles?
« on: September 09, 2009, 02:01:28 am »
"Yay! Mouse!
OH GOD, WHERE ARE MY HANDS?! OH GOD OH GOD WHAT THE HE- Oh. I'm a cat. Right."
The cat then continues on with its business.

You'd owe me a new G15rev1 if I drank at the computer.

If your computer's good enough you can also just plain raise the framerate cap and EVERYTHING will be faster.

I'd go with the first because even though it's a pain you can always just make your own sheer cliff face once you run out of other things to do, and underground river means tower cap farming along with more fun. You could always do both though.

Also if you're not running any mods that would kill compatibility with stock DF I'd like to give either of those a try too.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Stop Rental Feature in the Dwarven Economy
« on: September 05, 2009, 04:12:58 pm »
Another option is to simply turn of Economy in the init.txt

Will that stop the rest of the nobles associated with it from coming too or do you still need to put up with the Baron...

They also don't let you tell them what weapon to fight with either, which means I've got one guy that's just decided he wants to be a wrestler and nobody will tell him otherwise.

Urist McEpic has cancelled: fight with hammer, Urists fists ARE hammers.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: What are the best setups for various industries?
« on: September 04, 2009, 03:49:21 pm »
Tiny little tip I found is that the location of the input stockpile is FAR more important than for the output stockpile, you want the skilled workers to do the least amount of walking, haulers be damned!

Up/down starways are your FRIEND. I've managed to massively optimise most of my operations by building my workships around the periphery of a room all of which are near up/down stairways and directly below their particular stockpile and directly above their particular finished goods stockpile. Once you get enough haulers the fastest setup I've found so far is to leave moving finished stuff around to the haulers and let your working dorf only move around things he needs to work with. Haulers will put stuff in the stockpiles, he gets stuff to work with as he needs it, travel time is largely minimized.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: How do I cripple the Hammerer?

Build a few upright spear traps around a lever. Assign the lever to the hammerer. Problem solved.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Seizing from Trade Depots?

So you can basically prime and harvest caravans by churning out a lot of useless trade goods to use up spare stone and basically making really lopsided trades?

I'd think then that bows and spears would be the way to go, pray for good internal injuries.

From the Wiki:

Quote
The dungeon master has a somewhat... odd taste in clothing. He or she often shows up wearing a cloak, hood, and mittens, with nothing underneath. The dungeon master will often procure more cloaks to wear over the first at your fortress. This is because the dungeon master is insane.

Mayday's items (whoever made them) are imho the best if you run at a higher resolution and want true graphics.
