DF General Discussion / Re: Future of the Fortress

Just an information : consider reading this interview : here about Magic.

It's really interesting and...hyping.

I really like that standalone Tarn is using to test stuff. I want it more than dwarf fortress, maybe.

Does anyone know how to get this to run on mac?

I normally program on a Mac (and, naturally, also test it there), and I've never had any problems with it running. Could you be more specific with the issue you're having?

Your zipped files appear empty to me.  Only yours. odd.

That is strange. I guarantee there's something in it. You can verify by looking at the download page (it says the file size is 78.95 kB). I tried uploading a new zip file, if that doesn't work, try going to the GitHub page and clicking "Clone or download" then click "Download ZIP". It'll be a slightly updated version, but I think it's just as stable.

Here is the new download link:

Yup that has it. It's 150kb

I'd definitely say that a culture restricting only women to the millitary is very, very strange.

Baby shields. You wouldn't swing a sword at a baby, would you?

Yeah, from a medieval/renaissance time period perspective, allowing women in the military isn't particularly wise - hence why it was nearly never done.

If your army has pretty much zero force multipliers, you just need large numbers of people to fight, hence you want as big of a population as necessary. If you have 1 in 4 children dying in childbirth (and a mother 1 in 100), you kinda need to make sure that you have women around to procreate and not fighting in wars and dying/being injured. Also, many women of young to middle age were pretty much CONSTANTLY pregnant during their life times, with a year or two apart at max making them not particularly effective soldiers.

I can imagine cultural/religious reasons allowing it/enforcing it, but for even basic time period accuracy it seems a bit odd for it to be a 50% chance. My main issue though is just that you'll be ending up with around 30% of civilisations having a woman leader with women fighting and men not. Again, whilst I realise it's not looking for historical accuracy, it's biologically not sensible.

Note that in URR's earliest posts there was stuff like Minotaur generals of armies and the acceptable number of squares for a dragon to take up being casually discussed. Even if it doesn't look that way, we are in the realm of high fantasy. I'd say it's acceptable to say childbirth isn't usually fatal in fantasyland.

I think my favourite part about this game is the fact that this game was made using the most basic of C programming skills. This is something any beginner could make without any need for tools like construct or unity and I love that fact.

Hell, I even see the dev posting with Codeblocks up.

Yes, I've seen season 2 fed heimer with season 2 items.

Too bad I'm thinking of season 3 items.

That was addressed on the forum. Champs like Malz and Shaco and Heim are incredibly safe clears, but Heim jungle still isn't good because he can't do anything with the gold he gets. Heim's best time in the game right now is laning, why would you waste it in the jungle?

From the previews already I'll assume there is something that could fit into The guy's item list that would work well.

Split push comp?

Oh god yes I'm buying this.

Core need for MvM.
Heavy + Medic + Scout + Engie
Heavy needs to get the Projectile rebound thing.
Medic needs for Heals and Uber and canteen sharing.
Scout needs for Collecting Cash, lots and lots of cash. Getting the Bonus for getting all the cash is game changing.
Engie needs for Sentry/Dispensers.
Last 2 can be Demo and Soldier for best use. Demo for Sticky Traps and Soldier for Buff Banners...

Annoyingly, Valve gave away best Combo in their Vid...

Actually 4 medics 2 pyros.

You aren't going try-hard enough.

lol 18K waiting.

Oh dear. Guess enough people got disgruntled enough to launch an attack on it...

It got very popular with Etho and a few other minecaft-celebs so take a wild guess what community did the DDoS.
