DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: What's going on in your fort?
« on: April 09, 2010, 04:09:08 am »
Just fended off about 20 goblin spearmen, 2 goblin weapon masters, and a half-dozen trolls. My militia captain mayor got fifteen kills in the battle, leaving my entry hall a sea of blood and bodies.

Loving the new combat mechanics, it's what I've always wanted. Armor actually works, no wrestlers ripping giants apart, just hack and slash goodness.

Wow I can't even get my guys to pick up their armor.

I'm using a fair amount of cage traps, they're pretty effective.

DF General Discussion / Re: Dwarf Fortress Drinking Game
« on: April 08, 2010, 03:20:50 am »
There was one community fort where for one update the player for one update took a drink whenever any dwarf took a drink.  It got pretty incoherent after a bit.

Got some links?

I've noticed alot of hype for this game, but I'm not realy finding it to be all that tempting.

What's it like? Worth getting?

Hey,
I just started Dwarf Fortress because 2010 came out. I can't even describe the amount of fun I'm having, and, so much of it is do to this handy little mod! Thanks for making it! It seems when a Dwarf dies in my fort hes not removed from the therapist list, is this because of the upgrade to make it work for 2010, or, something I'm doing wrong within Dwarf Therapist. I lost 5 from 42 which should leave me with 37, but, the same 42 are showing up. In fact its saying that the ones the died are now legendary in the military profession they took up (if they were legendary in it before they died they may not have died.) Any thoughts?

Try restarting DF and DT, that's what works for me :)

I have a feeling Foot is silently watching this thread.  I think I need to have him on DF Talk some day.  Would you guys like that?

What? No.

One of my dwarves is in a fey mood and yelling about how he needs body parts. I'm not sure if he means the stuff left over when an animal is slaughtered or what :(

There might be body part lying around, just look at recent place of battle. Also make sure that when you do find some, they are not forbidden

you know we are gonna have a dwarf give birth to an iron baby... IRON MAN!

HAS HE LOST HIS MIND,
CAN HE SEE OR IS HE BLIND?
CAN HE WALK AT ALL,
OR IF HE MOVED, WOULD HE FALL?

IS HE ALIVE OR DEAD?
HAS HE THOUGHTS WITHIN HIS HEAD?
WE'LL JUST PASS HIM HERE
WHY SHOULD WE EVEN CARE?

550
Well, I'm still having the issue of it refusing to connect to DF, no matter where I am in-game, and no matter what I do.
The only mod I have on is a tileset.

You have to launch DT while DF is in the main menu.

All 12 of my dwarves are starving because...I think I've encountered a glitch with seeds, because there aren't any.

Now, I chose "Play Now!" instead of planning, but I KNOW you still get seeds. There isn't even any seeds from eaten Plump Helmets.

WHERE ARE THE SEEDS?!!?!


...But before that, my fort's only doctor/woodcutter got his left leg mauled by a black bear, which he wounded horribly because there's pools of bear blood and dwarf blood EVERYWHERE.

I made a migrant with novice combat skill into the militia commander and sent him after the bear.

He ripped the bear in two. With his bear hands. Must've been helped by the doctor hacking at it with his axe.

I also made an irrigation system. A bad one. A very bad one. I almost drowned the hospital. Where the mauled doctor is sleeping/starving because THERE'S NO FREAKIN' SEEDS. I IRRIGATE FARMS WITHOUT DROWNING ANYONE AND THE SEEDS JUST UP AND VANISH.

First off, your dwarves are awesome.

Secondly, plant gathering.
Yeah, I'm doing that...hope Doc doesn't die in his bed...his injuries are yellow but he's not getting better. C'mon, doc. It's only ONE leg.

No, my dwarves can't be awesome. They're scared away by a fox. That nulls any awesome they may have. I sent Urist McRipsbearsinhalf (militia commander) after that fox and he chased it all over the map like a Tolkien Benny Hill. He never caught it.

When I say blood is everywhere, I mean blood is everywhere. There was blood in places that bear didn't even get near. I think the dwarves are tracking it around. The well is surrounded by blood. Pools of blood are all over the place. I really don't think this is how blood is supposed to work.

for seeds I think you might have to process the plants in the farmers workshop now. doing so still leaves you with the plump helmets, they just take the seeds out.

I still get seeds from brewing, and from cooking. But maybe the disapear to vermin now?

Anyway, My entire fort perished to 6 goblins. I'm pretty sure I understand barrows and military. The reclaim should turn out quite nicely.

554
Enemy forces: 4 goblins.
Alied forces: 5 unarmored wrestlers, 30 odd civilian dwarves.

Winners: goblins.

I think I understand how the military works now. Maybe.

Also, merchants are complete jerks. They just stood around and stared.

555
i am intrigued why someone would feel the need to white out a custom name of a dwarf.

By chance I happened to use my real name for that dwarf.

Can't have anyone stealing our e-soul now can we?

I know it's probably supposed to be G.T. Mattz, but I can't help but see it as Gut Materials. :D
