Cave ins are good like that 
I didn't get that, the water created a stable couple of obsidian pieces.

« on: November 19, 2010, 11:03:38 pm »Yeah it just seems that I read it right when you posted the reply.
[EDIT]
Okay now as I try to play it, I found that the area for me is:
Temperature:HOT
Trees:SPARSE
So basicly, its not the same, and the ocean part is brown sometimes when I try it, and blue othertimes. Apparently, my game is messing up terribly, but I dont know what to fix.
Does anyone else have the same problem when genning the world? I've had a private message back-and-forth with Carcanken. He has tried with 0.31.16 and 0.31.18, mayday set, pheobus set. He has aquifiers turned off in the raws, but so do I.
Quote
Here is what I did the first time.
Opened world_gen.txt, and copied all the text inside [CTRL-A]
Pasted the downloaded world_gen.txt into my own world_gen.txt in my init folder.
So I picked design a new world with paramaters or similar
I chose '"Smallengoodened"
I started creating the map with the seeds and everything. At #REJECTED 500 I get a volcano error. I choose to Skip this error until a different one comes up or similar.
So when I get to use it, the ocean that is near the embark site is brown, and sometimes the layers shows nothing similar, and aswell as it being HOT or SCORCHING, and the river looks extremely different from the one in your picture.
Ideas?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Humans recruiting nobility from prisoners.. :x

DEY TUK ERR JAWBS
Human caravan.
Goblin diplomat, same civilisation.
He's a prisoner.
He arrived with a lot of injuries, yet moves like lightning.
Otherwise exactly like a human diplomat: "sup" "nommuch" "sweet, cya"

Got them in my current 31.18 game, delivered by the elves. I'm in a Mirthful biome but unsure if they're here (only did a little herbalism)

« on: November 19, 2010, 10:29:27 pm »Is he actually on break, or just on perpetual no job?
When he's not sleeping, eating, drinking or partying... he's "on break".

I've noticed in two forts now that I can't seem to pry my broker-turned-baron away from his break when the caravans show up. Unlucky streak or do they fob you off once they're promoted?

« on: November 19, 2010, 09:13:10 pm »OP's sounds like the most boring, unchallenging embark short of outright cheating...ever.
I'll stick to my terrifying deserts, thank you very much.
Get off the soap box... you're causing job cancellations for my dwarves

« on: November 19, 2010, 05:35:10 pm »Okay, I did that, so when I try to create that world, I get a LACK OF VOLCANOS error.
Should have read the instructions
Ignore the error. It should generate on attempt 508.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: INCREDIBLE embark
« on: November 19, 2010, 04:34:40 pm »Quick questionCopy-paste the contents into the end of your world_gen.txt, located in your data/init folder. Generate a custom world and select the new one at the bottom.
How would I use the world_gen.txt? I havent added a save from another person using it.

Oops - limestone, not chalk.
I ended up embarking 3x3 and obsidian still makes it in, btw.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Does anybody have a guide to dealing with aquifers?
« on: November 19, 2010, 02:58:30 pm »Code: [Select]
_______
soil layer: ### ### <- dug out, just leaving the cieling
aquifier layer: ####~~~~~~~#### <- channeled aquifier the same size as the plug
stone layer: ############### remove the final support and it should plug itYou might need another soil layer to create an actual plug made of walls, rather than just a cieling, I'm not sure.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: No seeds available for this location :(
« on: November 19, 2010, 07:28:12 am »If it's not in a soil layer, you'll need to enmuddy it.
I believe that surface plants require actual soil now, no muddy stone.
I recently (31.18) set up a surface plot in a rock layer, it required me to muddy it but was fine after that

Dig them out later and create a statue garden.
