Red to greyed-out...was it a dark grey or a light grey? If it was dark, your leopard's leg is no more. If it was light, that is a damn fast healing.

Build a ramp on every level. The summit must be reached!

I think he meant you should make green glass with magma. Masterwork giant serrated green glass blades are worth 3402DB each or so.

I like to embark on the highest cliffs I can find, and I've modded my dwarves to essentially be [SPEED:0] automatons, so I dig a 2x2 stairwell down through the cliff. 2-wide hallways, 11x11 workshop rooms, couple floors cleared out for stockpiles. I be a dirty cheater, but I don't particularly care.

DF Modding / New to modding races, any tips?
« on: July 13, 2010, 05:38:46 am »
So I'm building a race of spider people called the Arac. However, I'm rather inept at modding and have no idea what I'm doing. I've used the GCS raw entry as a base, and all I've changed so far is the top line, the description and the NAME: fields. What's different between modding creatures and races?
I'm also open to suggestions for race features and such, so feel free to come up with whatever.

The only modding was [SPEED:0] and the NoExotic utility. Also, only one of them is male. Hmm.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Challenge thread?
« on: July 12, 2010, 07:38:49 am »
Is there a specific thread on here for collecting challenges so people can find something to do when they're bored? If not, should we make one?

So far I've had no problems with the medical system (though there were some odd bits like a splint and cast being applied to a broken skull). All dwarves that go in come out in two months or less.

Deserts. My main exports are clear glass goblets studded with all sorts of wonderful things.

I now need to create a new fortress.
4x4 embark. Left half of the map, the Big Room. Industry everywhere. Roof 3 Z-levels high. No caverns. A set of ramps on the top right going down to the magma sea, where all the magma-operated buildings get planted.
Right half of the map, there will be virtually no layer stone mined. Following ore veins and gem clusters as closely as possible, downward ramps in random locations in attempts to find ore on the next level. Hopefully I'll eventually close off my fortress and make the only entrance through one of these veins. Perhaps a trade depot in an ex-magnetite cluster?
And when I eventually turn invaders back on, the veins will be littered with weapon traps. Full of wonderfully sharp *enormous steel corkscrews* and other wonderful stabby-rippy-cutty things. And cage traps for the lulz.
