If you have the same raw and graphics set up, you can remove those from the savegame and have them add their own folder back. That should save some filesize, assuming you're using DF 0.31.

And then there is minor peve of how ineffective pathing is:

This general tendency of ai to do everything from west and north first.
I would assume that this is due to finding a free space adjacent to the destination object, then pathing to there, instead of doing a path-find to the destination itself and calling the pathfinding "done" at distance of 1 from the pathing destination instead of 0.

It wouldn't be a hard thing for me to fix, and I hope toady could fix it based off my explanation too.
EDIT: I can provide a demo if needed.

Macs don't try to commit suicide any time you ever try to use a different network other than your own for Internet.

Neither do Linux distributions and all I had to do was double click on the df script and hit "Run".

The game should really be packaged like that from the beginning...

This is an accurate 8-directions (+Z) distance cost function:
Min(Abs(X),Abs(Y))*diagcost + Abs(Abs(X)-Abs(Y))*linearcost + Z*Zcost
The crazy Abs(Abs(X)-Abs(Y)) term can also be expressed as (Max(Abs(X),Abs(Y)) - Min(Abs(X),Abs(Y))) if you find that easier to understand.

mentally alter the order of the pre-waiting list, moving myself to the front of the pre-waiting line, while appearing to wait patiently to everyone else

Maybe we should split the waiting-room and pre-waiting-room craziness into another thread. We could always be summoned across when it's our turn.

It counted as attacking the shadow I think, and the waiting room didn't even allow that.

It's "patience". Patients are people who are getting treated for illness.

Also, I'm now the GM of a d&d game inside the waiting room for the waiting room for another game? Ouch my mind hurts. EDIT: Of course, as I'm immobile for aeons thanks to my incredible patience, I don't think I'll do well as a DM. Unless I can psychically DM while standing patiently? No wonder my head hurts.
