awesome, thanks. I understand why some animals are exotic and others aren't. But it just irks me so much that the Dungeon master is next to impossible to get. Yet you can train dragons in a kennels...

1. Go into the elk bird's raws (in your world's creature_next_underground).
2. replace [PET_EXOTIC] with [PET] and [TRAINABLE
3. ???
4. Profit!

So write it like this [PET_TRAINABLE]?

DF Gameplay Questions / trainable animals.
« on: November 15, 2010, 08:26:15 pm »
I understand that dungeon master is necessary to train certain animals (and possibly bugged), but why is the list of trainable animals at the kennel so small? I have a herd of Elkbirds flapping around in some traps. But tell me why, can I train a dragon but not an ostrich sized bird? This has been made me rage for a while.

I really don't feel like sending all those elk birds to my dwarve's bellies and crafting tables. I'd rather ride them around and play games of dwarven Joust "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joust_(video_game)" (huuuuuur)

In the mayday tile sets. There also seems to be a non red trap at the top of mountains (I'm color blind so idk what color it actually is, but I know it's not red), what is that?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Lava and volcano hunting

I can never seem to find a single ounce of lava anywhere on the map. I’ve been told that there is always one volcano and at least one square of exposed magma on the surface of every map.
Any tips on hunting for some lava and volcanoes?

Heh, yeah, the Jabberer is DF's equivalent to the Wake Up Call Boss. They can shred through even a decent-size military in short order if you're not well equipped.

The first time I ran into one I thought I was doing fairly well. "Hey, what's that thing? Well, it can't be too dangerous, I'll just send my three Axedwarves to... wait, where did all their limbs go?" "YOUR CIVILIZATION HAS CRUMBLED. FORGE MOAR SPEARS HAHAHA"

Almost exactly what happened to me.
