DF General Discussion / Dwarf Fortress Jokes
« on: February 15, 2011, 02:43:30 pm »
So, just list some DF jokes. Y'know, the kind that only a DF player would get.

Alright, I have one to start off with.

What do you call a Hoary Marmot who is in the army?

...

A WARry Marmot! Get it? Alright, maybe that wasn't the best, but you get the idea.

DF Gameplay Questions / How do I clean THAT contaminant?
« on: February 14, 2011, 04:46:00 pm »
Upon inspecting my dwarves, I discovered they have a 'water covering' item on every body part. How do I clean that off? A dwarven bath wouldn't work, I assume.

DF Modding / Adventure Adamantine outfit.
« on: February 13, 2011, 12:23:45 pm »
Yes, I realize this is cheating, but I'm in the mood to go on a murderous rampage without a care in the world. So, I need a reaction that gives me a full adamantine outfit, and a adamantine weapon and shield. When I tried, the game crashed. So, anyone want to help?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / And how am I expected to obtain that?
« on: February 12, 2011, 10:43:16 pm »
While making a uniform for my army I noticed this--


Also on that list are 'bogeyman leather' and assorted leathers from 'exotic' sources. (You know, the stuff which is Fun? Hidden Fun?)

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Wait, you want me to kill who?
« on: February 11, 2011, 04:14:44 pm »
So, I went to a castle and got a quest to kill a troll. Not just any troll, though.

I'm not sure I should, Toady might be upset. He might get so upset, that he will stop updating Dwarf Fortress.

DF Gameplay Questions / One crutch, or two?
« on: February 10, 2011, 08:37:58 pm »
If a dwarf has two broken/missing legs, will they use one crutch, or two?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Hunters...
« on: February 10, 2011, 07:07:45 pm »
So, one of my Dwarves decided to start hunting. He isn't hunting just anything, though. He wanted to prove himself as a true hunter. So, he grabs his crossbow, and his bolts, and walks towards my staircase. The cavern entrance has been temporarily opened for web harvesting. He takes advantage of this, and starts his hunt. He spots his quarry. A Giant Cave Spider. He shoots it, and is immediately webbed, then poisoned. I have to send in the military to kill it, before it kills the other idiot who went to collect Urist Mchunter's corpse.


WHY?! Why did he have to attack the spider?! I didn't even know anyone even had hunting enabled! Can't you hunt something less dangerous?!

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Two questions on wrestling.
« on: February 10, 2011, 04:40:47 pm »
I have two questions. Both are about wrestling. The way they work seems to have been changed since last time I tried, and the wiki offers no help.

1. How do I gouge people eyes out?

2. How do I steal weapons/shields/etc. from still living combatants?

EDIT: Also, am I the only one who likes to cut people teeth out when they're unconscious?

DF Suggestions / Production Manager 'Profiles'
« on: February 04, 2011, 06:04:32 pm »
One of the things I would like to see added to Dwarf Fortress is a sped up production manager. What you could do is designate a manager 'profile' much like embark profiles. For example, you could make one with all the military gear a military dwarf would need. Then, you just select it, put in a quantity, and the manager would instantly fill up with all the items you need. Instead of manually filling it up with one item at a time, you just hit one button and everything is ready for production. I think it would speed things up quite a bit.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Oh, hey ghost, where are you going? Oh. Of course.
« on: February 03, 2011, 08:10:42 pm »
So, I recently had my fortress "attacked" by a ghost. It was one of those peaceful ghosts that just hang around the same places that they spent time in while they were alive. Guess where he went? The atom-smasher, where he was killed. Why was I not expecting that? Oh, and that stuff about ghosts being bad for FPS? Rubbish. My FPS is fine.

DF Modding / Well, that wasn't supposed to happen.
« on: February 03, 2011, 04:44:27 pm »
So, I was feeling a little lazy. I didn't want to produce a lot of iron normally. So, I modified a reaction to turn 1 iron bar into 10. Simple enough, right? Apparently not. I didn't end up with 10 iron. I ended up with, well...

Spoiler: WHAT?! (click to show/hide)

What happened?
Here is the reaction--

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Panic room. Oh, man.
« on: February 02, 2011, 06:19:36 pm »
I finished my danger room, drafted a few dwarves, and stationed them in there. I pulled the lever a few times, and everyone survived. For a few moments. Shortly afterwards, half of them died. Half! The rest had several red injuries. Unless I have this completely messed up, red means broken. I can't imagine the rest surviving much more. The ones that died however, due to their "long" and "valiant" service, were given proper tombs. But the question stands, how are these supposed to help?

DF Modding / Force Caravans?
« on: February 02, 2011, 11:34:56 am »
Is there a utility that can force a caravan to visit your fortress? I'm tired of these Dwarves not showing up, and it seems like there would be something to do this with.

Life Advice / Calculate gravity?
« on: February 01, 2011, 09:00:21 pm »
If I know the mass of an object, and the force affecting it in newtons, how do I convert that to G-forces? (I want the equation.)
