Alright then.No, just werebeasts and other interaction'd critters.
Is it possible to create Forgotten Beasts/clowns in the Testing Arena?
The implication here is that I want to control the abomination, bleheheheheh
Wait, there are people in the same room as us? We definitely can't retreat just to depressurize it, they'd just slip into the other room.We're threatening the crew members in the crew quarters, which is the room we're currently in. Not the people behind the second air lock.There was another airlock on the other side of the room, and a normal door to the right, probably leading to an engineering quarters and a life support room.Fun fact, airlocks are airtight.
Here's an idea, I want opinions on it first though. We could let the crew have their weapons back, on the promise that they'll assist us against the marines, as they are obviously corrupt asshats who were willing to throw their lives away, to help us save their friends from said marines.Too dangerous.
((or im back))Indeed. It could be a ruse.
No better off keep them unarmed and place them somewhere where they wont get in the way, they are still technically republicans
There was another airlock on the other side of the room, and a normal door to the right, probably leading to an engineering quarters and a life support room.Fun fact, airlocks are airtight.
As they only had handguns, where as we have assault rifles and exoskeletons, we should offer them the chance to surrender first. We outmatch them insanely.This. After all, how certain are we that there aren't other pressurized places, say, just beyond the airlock?
Thus speak the following to the room: "I know you're in here. My platoon does too. And what do you expect to do against a team of hardened storm troopers? Give up your weapons, and the rest of the ship, and you'll be just fine. If you don't well, I'm the one with bigass gun and the exosuit..."
(No harm in upping the truth a little)
Precisely why that potential trove of stolen weaponry is less than useless unless we can get it to Guadalupe or something.Too large of an area to control easily, and there are multiple disputes on that island.Alright, can you figure out some way to get that useful stuff to wherever we're taking over? Unless we want to take over Ireland or something.I live in England, and some others probably do too.Spoiler (click to show/hide)Brilliant idea!Armoured cars, minesweepers, APCs, tanks, they even have aircraft!
I would suggest a visit to the British Army disposal yard. I think it's in Lancashire.
No boats though.
And there is the problem of getting all of the stuff to the US to invade a French island.
We could meet up in wherever we choose to take over.
Naw, just down to the island. Get some J.R.R. Tolkien references going here!Ah.
(and if you don't know what I am talking about, you are a terrible nerd)
So, you're saying that that dwarf fortress can be infinitely large (in terms of item count and embark size) and old?FPS issues will always persist though. A larger enough and or old enough fortress will slow down any computer.Why is it a generally held belief that ToadyOne doesnt do any optimization as he works?Because DF still has FPS problems. Also, new features tend to increase CPU load on average.
Yes, but the whole point is it doesn't have to be that way.
Not "infinitely" large, obviously, since the universe can't do infinitely large, but sufficiently large such that the average modern desktop would have no problem with thousand year embarks bigger than anyone could possibly ever want.
