DF Adventure Mode Discussion / I have no eyes but can i see?
« on: August 28, 2010, 08:36:38 am »
By the sheer machinations of sorcery, i managed to fall into some open space with one of my followers, and couldnt get out. After about 10 minutes i decided to attack my fellow. One thing led to another, and now hes dead, but i have no eyes. I can get out of here i believe, but will i be unable to see? How will this affect my abilities? Or has it already...

This is a good one. I made a fort. Designed like big halls, with towers, and each tower was a different workshop place, with stockpiles and such. The entire thing was built under the ocean. I lost the fort and found it in adventure mode, but half of it was flooded, and I spent hours travelling through it, using my pump system, to deflood it and try to get as much treasure as possible. Its so massively fun, to be walking through a fort to suddenly open a door and have water rush out and drag you half way down a hall and into a hole. I actually drowned. I made left a pump running and got washed into a well, and escaped into a room, with water above it, and water below it, and I drowned swimming up and out.
Excellent! At least you didnt get Miasma on your way out...

Well, warm ice makes sense, since dry ice tends to keep itself maintained, heat wouldnt affect it... It should still react in some way though...

Recently, i was playing the regular Dwarf Fortress mode, and made a small city, with 74 occupants. Recently, about 10 of them turned psycho and killed literally everyone then died of miasma.
Just saying, you can't die of miasma.
Except they died at the hands of dorfs who were enranged at the miasma, but thats unlikely.
You cant? Then... What killed everybody...?
EDIT: Got it: After reading the logs, after getting everyone to hide due to the danger, they got hungry and thirsty, and there was no way out since i tried to use demolitions to create safety, incidentally losing my miner. So they were already having tantrums, and the miasma could have pushed them over the edge?

Most awesome thing I ever did?  I was running a dwarven wrestler (his skill was legendary by this point in the adventure), who was remarkably fast.  Ambushed, and surrounded by six wolves, I had him grab each of them as they came close.  Three with one arm (upper arm, lower arm, hand), three with the other (upper arm, lower arm, hand).  I then started throwing: two of them hit nearby trees, one of which exploded (the wolf, not the tree), and killing the other instantly.  One of them flew off-screen, and I never bothered to see where it went.  A fourth one hit a tree, then lay there stunned.  I now had two wolves, one in each hand (on their heads).  I proceeded to do what I did to raise my wrestling skill quickly: I tortured them to death.  First, I pinched their noses, the pain rendering both unconscious.  I then began gouging everything I could, then ripping out teeth and tearing off ears.  When they finally passed out from the pain, I started towards the last wolf, who, by the time I got halfway to him, had started limping away: a front leg and back leg were broken, and a few organs were damaged.  When I reached him, I gave him a complete set of broken legs, gouged his eyes out, then released him, sat a safe distance away, then watched the wolf slowly bleed to death.  It took a bit longer than expected, but I'm a patient man.  While I waited, I started licking the wolf's blood from my character's armor, although I quickly filled up on that, it was rather entertaining, watching a wolf bleed to death while drinking splattered wolf blood.

Remember, on Dwarf Fortress, 9 times out of 10, Evil = Awesome.
Why have i never tortured any people...
*Ill be right back*

Immediately after i started an adventure mode game, and found my old fortress. There had been a cavern collapse, but everything was as it had been, with rotting corpses, blood and death lining every hall. The lower halls were still flooded from a failed experiment and there was still a prisoner safely locked in a cell (lucky bastard)
For various reasons, i think this is the best thing ive seen that you are able to to do any game.
Have any of you ever done anything similar?

Its not a bug - Chances are they killed each other, or something killed them. Like a giant cave spider, or a giant beetle, or some othersuch killer.

Kill the child, for everyones sake.
No, kill it then use its mighty body as a weapon!

Or at least the Fist of Nestlefed
And with the fist of a child, i shall slay Giant Cave Spider and Beetle alike!

Magical. Have you any clue as to how this happened? Could the river have overflowed, or some such thing?
Well, there was a river running right by the town, and the Ocean was within view on the far east side if that helps...

Because it just happened to me - So it began raining. No big deal. Then, while i was in one of those multistory apartments, it flooded outside. Now im afraid to open the door, out of fear that the Building will flood.
So anyway, i resorted to cannibalism to survive (I REFUSE to Shift+T out of this predicament by the way), so now im trying to work out if its safe to leave...?
And im interested to know overall, but ive come too far to die like this :/
