Well, I'm an idiot. Turns out I wasn't even given any game monies at the beginning to use. Because I have a ridiculous amount of seeds. That's been rectified, thank you all for helping.Yup, this kind of thing messed me up when I modded in a race that could only use iron and silver.
Whoa, something made easier in this update?Finally, a 31.19 feature that makes things EASIER.
You seriously mean I can set up a decent-sized farm even more early on?
The problem is that aboveground grass grows indoors in soil.Not if the tile is exposed.
It's a bug.
At least the crowd that advocated for scarcer metals is happy. When people were complaining that metal was too abundant, few spoke in support.Having only started playing in 31.16 and doing most of my forts in 31.18, I think:
It looks like it's time for someone to bite the bullet and run a field test. SPEED:0 and uncapped FPS on a 2x2 embark. Mine out the entire map. Review your finding....
They do carry their picks into battle, and if you need a mechanic just change make a dwarf a mechanic for a season or two while you set things up.
If you want to get some of the animals, you could set up a "funnel" type trap with walls that lead into cage traps(Or you could butcher them on the spot if that is what you prefer). Draft your miners into two separate squads and use them to herd the beasts into the funnel. It's safer, has a higher chance of success(Unless your miners move fast), and more profit if you pull it off.
How does a skeletal ANYTHING move AT ALL?What amazed me was how skeletal sharks moved on solid ground. I suppose that dead water animals don't need to breathe and therefore won't suffocate on land, but they aren't exactly configured for land movement. At best they ought to flop along like a landed fish, but they still moved with the speed of sharks.
Maybe some evil god gave them legs, Gyo-style.
Because, I mean, how does a completely skeletal fish FLOP, exactly, without muscles?
Just that. Catch some bees in a hive and watch your fortress value rise like if you just made an artifact. My months old fortress created wealth is higher than 100000. I dont know if this is a bug, but it is awesome to attract migrants. Also, should i post it on bug reports?Yes, a bee is generally considered a bug.
Lol, with the cut off, organize wrestling DEMONS.Yeah, how do you do that? I always thought it would end in loss of life and limb and head and guts and your friends and your alcohol and your fortress and your sanity and your FPS and stuff.
This isn't a hard question. It just kinda bugs me.What are the squiggly things? Stairs?Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Moldath the monolith cancels sleep: interrupted by skeleton
Hey, wait, that was your thread! How are we supposed to help you make Kender when you keep valuable modding information over here? :-)I was unaware it was a modding thing when I poste...oh, wait.
Over in the modding forum we were just discussing how to produce this sort of thing, so far unsuccessfully. Would you mind posting the raws for the race that's doing this?Better yet, I can link to it and credit the creator.
