DF Gameplay Questions / Fining corpses?
« on: November 03, 2007, 05:59:00 pm »
Hi there, back with a question again.

My jewler just drowned somehow and I cannot find the body... bringing up the unit list and trying to zoom to him or any "deceased" doesn't work. Any suggestions?

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Not a gameplay question exactly but...

I retract my question =P

I don't know what I was thinking, it was because I had the desktop resolution at 800x600 so DF can fill up the screen and still be windowed. However that was what was causing the window to cover up a bit of the screen.

I hope this question isn't THAT stupid... but I am playing DF in windowed mode and the title bar of the window blocks the top part of the screen. I know it's not really important but I'd like to be able to see the FPS at the top there. Anyone know of a way to hide the windows title bar?

What ctrlfrk mentioned is as so far I've seen the best method of doing this, like he said to go right, holding 9 & 3 on the numpad will actually make you zig-zag to the right at twice the speed as just holding right, because it illicits 2 key responses and ignores the set wait time you get just holding 6.

Ok I just started over and did the farms again. This time it worked like a charm, but I have one other question. The mill says it needs an "empty bag chest". What exactly is it looking for?

This could possibly be stupid question, but it's late spring, and I have a couple 6x6 farm plots. I have around 100 helmet seeds, but when I set the farm plots to those seeds and several dwarfs to farm (plot), they planted just a few seeds and then went inactive... There something I'm doing wrong?

To start with a sword, when you pick adventure mode don't pick the (play now) option, and it will allow you to customize a character, just put more points into swords skill than any other weapon skill or wrestling, and you will start with a sword.

Press Shift+? and then go to icons and you will get a little help figuring out what you are looking at. Also in there you can read the controls.

I'm having a little trouble finding them... I thought they would be sold by a weapons dealer.

Hey I'm having a blast in adventure mode so far, but I have yet again another question.

My dude is a swordsman, but he somehow ended up with a pike after fighting a bunch of skeletons and the inventory says it's "stuck in right hand"... what can I do about this?

Oh and what the heck happend to the sword I just bought off that merchant...

Edit: You're so dedicated Toady I have nothing but respect.

Ok sweet, thank you.

Oh, one more thing... in my log if I check out (s)ites, even with a new character, it crashes everytime. Anything to recommend there? Or am I screwed till I create a new world or wait for a patch?

This should be a simple question but I had trouble searching for the answer. Does your adventurer's lets say... sword and shield skills eventually go up as he fights creatures using his sword and shield? I would assume so, but couldn't quite find the answer.

Also, how do I/can I check a list of color coded sections of my/enemies injuries like DF mode?

Thanks in advance.

Ah ok, thank you JT. I was worried that a section of table would be "assigned" to a single dwarf and no other dwarf would ever use the chair at the other side.

Thank you.
