DF General Discussion / Re: Cracked Topic
« on: October 09, 2010, 08:58:11 pm »
I would say include Boatmurdered because it explains the basics of the game, and its pretty funny and a good portion of the people here got into DF by reading it.  A mention of the Headshoots civil war and Holistic Detective would also be good.  It had magma containment failures, tantrum spirals, an east/west division, lava proof champions, rooms beyond space, admantine artifacts, dead nobility and that epic duel at the end.

Morul is pretty awesome but only if you understand the sort of crap you would have to go through to get a legendary small animal dissector or legendary milker.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: How to get by without flux?
« on: October 09, 2010, 08:04:34 pm »
Replace steel armor with clownsuits? I fairly often find marble around the semi molten rock anyway, even on maps that don't have it listed as a layer.  Plus you should be able to import steel and pig iron and flux from the dorf caravans, and pig iron flux and bronze from the humie caravan, so maybe 2 dwarves per year can be outfitted with pretty solid equipment sets.

Only naturally flowing water will push things.  Pumps and pressure don't work, or at least they didn't in 40d.

A mist generator and a legendary bedroom will make Urist happy, no exceptions.  Some people make a legendary bedroom and assign it to dwarves that need more happy.

So... the aquifer didn't remember to keep making more water until some empty space appeared in the pipe due to someone drinking water?

I once heard empty space has no effect on fishing.  Someone designed a fishing hole high above the water to keep their fisherers safe, but then a flying forgotten beast got in anyway.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: How wide is a tile?
« on: October 07, 2010, 09:24:02 pm »
Pretty much as big as you need it to be, it expands or contracts depending on whats in it.

. * % D

The first tile has a seed and is an inch, the next has a spider and is a few inches, the next has a barrel and is a few feet, the next has a Donkey or dragon or something and is many meters.

[PROGRESS_TRIGGER_TRADE:1] --> [PROGRESS_TRIGGER_TRADE:0] should make them show up as soon as its the correct season.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Pausing the game for mandates

Not that I know of, but I think you could disable mandates with a small amount of raw tinkering.

Temperature and weather really don't make much difference gameplay wise, but can give a pretty solid FPS boost.  Just turn temp back on if a dragon shows up or someone decides to take a magma bath.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / another Admantine spire - now with a mountain
« on: September 25, 2010, 08:44:40 pm »
So I found an admantine spire, except its surrounded by an embark tile or two of rock and soil.  Oddly, not even the outline seems to be properly revealed so I really cant figure out exactly what the mountain is made of.  I haven't tried any digging yet because its just so laggy my comp cant really handle it, even while paused. 

HERE
is a screenshot at z500 something.  I really cant go much higher because it slows way down.  No idea exactly what the unrevealed tiles are or why they wont reveal.  The admantine snakes all around through the big mountain in the south, not sure if the other little mountains in the west and north have admantine veins too.

If anyone downloads it be aware the world was genned with my own mods.  Flying steel using orcs have been added, armor has been modified to cover fingers and toes and stuff.

I'm pretty sure the US trained dolphins to scout for or defuse naval mines (I assume defuse means asplode) and at least considered using them to deliver explosives and do other stuff.

DF General Discussion / Re: Mods to change digging speed
« on: August 26, 2010, 10:24:35 pm »
Are you sure mining speed now respects material properties?  I noticed a decrease in the speed of my legendary miners but I think that is because they no longer get absurd agility stat increases from mining skill.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Chuck Norris plays Dwarf Fortress...
« on: August 26, 2010, 03:54:59 am »
Chuck Norris feeds his fortress only demon meat and plump helmet man wine. 
Chuck Norris's DF multithreads itself.  On extra processing cores he built inside the fortress. 
Chuck Norris assigns baby-shields in the military screen.
Moody Dwarfs ask Chuck Norris exactly what they should produce and how it should be decorated. 
When Chuck Norris orders someone to take a magma bath, they get squeaky clean then go back to work.

I always assumed that dwarves were mostly ethanol powered, just eating meals for vitamins and minerals and such.
