Designate mass areas for dumping.
be warned, this will set EVERYTHING in that area you choose to be dumped.

Then raise the FPS-cap, that'll make time go by faster, assuming your computer can go higher than 100 fps. :P

lol, he means when you're choosing what specific cage(or other things, like doors) to put in that spot.

Huh, I could have sworn wagons could stroll right over chains and ropes with no problems.

Basically, yes, but it will still look like 2 doors standing next to eachother. :)

I can't really find any other decent sites in this world with adamantine and magma. Is adamantine required to attract him, or is it just a helping factor?
Adamantine is basically king-bait, I believe it's possible to get the kings interest in your fort as early as your first year if you strike adamantine.
Otherwise, you need a population of 100 for the king to consider coming to your fort.

There has to be another way, though.

Would either one be seriously injured if I built a bridge under them and flung them at the wall? Or am I unable to build a bridge on a spot with a dwarf on it?
Actually, building something under them -may- force them to move, try that.

Yes, it would move them, maybe knock them unconscious or stun them.

I may set one of my cave crocodiles out in the middle of the map, then morph it into a dragon or hydra with Dwarf Companion.
...
Or maybe 3 dragons.

It should count as separate from the pipe, this is on the assumption that magma pipes work like brooks for the most part.
But really, there's no better way than to experiment and experience it for yourself! :D

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Sand Start

Personally, I would keep your workshops near the top of your fortress, where the sand is, that way you won't have to clear out rock for stockpiles and such.
Workers don't really have impressions from the quality of certain areas, or at least, they get no negative thoughts from working/being in sandy areas.
As for bedrooms, make sure they are z-levels above or below your workshops, as dwarves can become afflicted by noise, plus, if you do it below, you can smooth all the rooms and make them nice, beware however, if you have the economy turned on then nice rooms can lead to homeless dwarves once the economy kicks in.
I myself like to have a fortress above my fortress, if you know what I mean, a nice castle area as an entrance to my fort, then down below, all the fun stuff begins. :)

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / I feel rather sad!

My current fortress has grown so large, I'm attempting to get it killed off so I can start a new one, but it's becoming rather tough, at least to do it legitimately and not on purpose.
So I've tried to mod things to be tougher, mostly goblins and other various beasts, but for this map being untamed wilds, I'm sure not getting a lot of wildlife.
Anyway, I built a drawbridge corridor to kill caravans with, I've learned just how fun being an asshole can be to other civs. :D
I attempted to unleash this devastating trap on the most recent goblin siege... and the bridges were blown to bits.
I'm loving these new goblins.

Also, I have a male dwarf champion who's title is "The Woman Of Time", I shudder while imagining what kind of inside joke this is, centered on the poor fellow.

~way more beer then can be reasonable)
There's no such thing in the world of Dwarf Fortress!
I hope we get liquid beer someday soon, I want to make a pressurized beer cannon.

Build a stockpile next to the workshop that only accepts the types of stones you want, or enable only that type of stone to be used in the z>Stones menu.
