Forum Guidelines
Don't necromancers have a relatively short range? The sample interactions have a range of 10 tiles so unless you have many refuse piles, or have animatable parts lying all over (a distinct possibility) they should be fairly easy to spot.Necromancer also have legs.
Wait, the original was for replies too? Heck, no!I propose that, if possible, a filter be added for posting to the DF Suggestions board. Any time a user attempts to post a new thread or a reply on the board, the filter checks the user's posting history. If either of the following is true:i would say not to apply this rule as through this many people would hesitate in posting their messages as they would worry that their message may be rejected.... i would suggest to stop the creation of new threads on forums onlythe post is rejected, and a message is displayed explaining why it was rejected.
- User's post count is <50
- User's posts on DF Suggestions account for >20% of total posts
The numbers probably need some tweaking to determine more reasonable figures, but I think the core idea is a good one.
I still think that this would be a good idea, albeit handled by moderation rather than backend processes. Either way, I've basically abandoned the suggestion forum because for the last 6 years it's been the same fifteen or so threads repeating endlessly. No one wants to take the time to discuss where the development of the game should go, they just want to jump up and say "I want this!".There are some people who seriously consider the future of the game here, it's just that their posts are swamped out by the types of thread you mentioned. And the occasional troll.
Minecarts aside, when dwarves actually start paying attention to stockpile settings, that's when I might start considering it playable. I was using minecarts as a workaround for a hauling problem in the first place.Meh, minor issue if you don't use bins. Just my two cents.
Maybe you guys are patient enough to put up with (or don't pay enough attention to) the dwarves doing things like grabbing a full (minus one) bin, taking weeks carry it over to place it on a single item, and then running back and grabbing a wheelbarrow to run it back to the stockpile, even with input piles (which dwarves ignore because of another bug involving bins/barrels), sometimes turning off an entire industry for the entire period of time because they're carrying the bin full of job items. But I do, and that's not 'playable' to me.
Oh, and when I can eliminate an entire gameplay mechanic (item storage) by cramming an infinite amount of items onto one tile, in a space management game, that's cheating in my mind. Totally irrelevant to me how you feel about it.You have much to learn about the Ways of the Sandbox, young Padawan. For instance, DF isn't a space management game, it's more of an imbicelle management game.
PS: Please, continue to tell me how you think I should be playing a sandbox game instead of discussing issues that stop minecarts from working and ways to work around them withoutSure.cheatingtaking advantage of exploits which give me an unintended gameplay advantage which is somehow not cheating.
Can we train members of enemy civs?Would we be able to capture and reuse these smartbombs somehow against our enemies?seems like a simple case of making them tamable, possibly trainable as 'hunting' smart bombs to chase down the space mans target.
Squee says: Dangerroom is too... dangerous... I wont go in there, no.no.no.Yoo elv! Git en da danjir rum, afor Ay smush yer hed en!
Hm....Either you're joking, you're deliberately providing malicious advice, or you don't know what you're talking about - magma will not harm zombies.
Well, as necro would have put it, MAGMAAAAAAA!!!
They...kinda do. Look at your starting 7 pre-embark. LOOK AT THEM! That's because they haven't gotten cave-adapted.That just means they haven't gotten cave-adapted.It means the opposite of cave adaption! Dwarves do NOT default on those traits!
