Mrm, if you can tell me how to find the seed of a map already generated, I can provide you a 3x3 area with everything (chasm, magma, udg. lake, udg. river, !!HFS!!, flux, sand) except trees and the aquifier. Terrifying also.

I need that seed now!!!!
the instructions are above!

no, it is all random - also some places have many moons or more than one sun and all of this other random coolness - i think you have to look at somethin while in adventure mode to notice this

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / I miss floods : (
« on: February 10, 2008, 01:52:00 am »
I do...

yearly floods sweeping dwarves off the bridge to their watery death within the cave river & humongous cave rivers flowing around


sigh

they are full of things that you can claim and sell. And you can demolish all their buildings for wood.

the humans just mill around aimlessly though

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Chasm / Bridge Question
« on: April 06, 2008, 09:46:00 pm »
you don't want a bridge! You want an aqueduct.

but you probably can't build the bridge because they want to start it from the other side or something. if you make the bridge raiseable instead of retractable, you can choose which side to start construction from. Might be a different situation, but that is the problem that I would sometimes encounter when trying to build a bridge

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: I'm tired of rocks on my stockpiles
« on: April 04, 2008, 11:14:00 pm »
my strategy for cleaning up the massive quantities of rocks:

build an indoors rock pile of whatever size

build a pit nearby (that has a ramp leading down) and use 'i' like the above poster said to mark the edges as a pit

put refuse pile at the bottom of the pit

when the stonek pile gets full designate all the stones in the stone pile to be dumped (so tedious! but unless you do some macro thinga, this seems the easiest & fastest way - there should  be only one stone per pile tile, so designating them all to dump is pretty quick - except for the fact that you make the dwarves haul the stones twice - but I like to build large, cavernous halls and sometimes deep & winding pits and it is annoying designating 2-3++ stones on each tile for dumping - at least until toady adds in the dumping fields ala the claim/forbid fields)

You are correct. It has 3 definitions:

Urban Dictionary

You are just looking in the wrong dictionaries.

It seems to me like they have gotten stronger, or at least some of them - right around the time the hunters got better too. Or maybe they just got an AI attacking type boost - like not grabbing limbs and then letting them go the next turn

DF Gameplay Questions / specific noble mandate - pumice in his room
« on: September 23, 2006, 08:55:00 pm »
is there any way to create an armor stand with a specific type of stone. I have 2800+ stones and out of those, I have 2 pumice stones. I tried creating light stone armor stands & dark stone armor stands & regular ones but they are all every kind except pumice.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Pressure plate on bridge: can it be done?
« on: November 03, 2007, 05:52:00 pm »
I don't know... I would always set up bridge-traps in the previous version, but I set up a whole bunch today and got some goblins to chase me back over them and they never went off.... I had it from size 2 to max creatures. I will have to test it some more before I put a bug report, maybe I just messed up
