The latter also carries a copper war hammer which she's named "The Combined Persuasive Strangeness," and, given that she's killed a forgotten beast, more than a dozen goblins, and a Giantess with it, I get the feeling she wins arguments as soon as she brings it out.

That has to be one of the best weapon names ever.

Another siege came and went giving me a few new titles, of which "the Safety of Speaking" stands out to me. It's like "Look, we can talk this over, and nobody gets hurt, or we can hack all your limbs off one by one, what do you think?"

My understanding is that Fortress mode is a hell of a lot more finished than Adventure mode is, so he's focusing on Adventure mode for a bit so that people who like that mode can enjoy it more. The dev log on the main site has been alluding to many things that will affect Fortress mode more directly than Adventurer mode though.

If they're far enough away, try to wall off the front of the caves?

@Karlito - Thanks. For search users: it is called LEVELS_ABOVE_GROUND.
By the way, can I specify any number, for example 300?

When you select an option in the advanced world generation screen (assuming you're using that and not editing the raws), it will tell you the valid range of numbers for the option you have selected.

I don't really consider Danger Rooms to be an exploit, in the sense of something that goes against how the game should work, for the simple reason that they should logically work, and the only way I can think of to stop upright spike traps from being used for training, while still keeping them viable for other uses, would be to blatantly prevent training weapons from being used in traps.

All a danger room is really is a contraption which attacks your dwarves with (nearly) harmless training spears as a way to help them realistically practice dodging and blocking, while not being in any (likely) danger. I see no way to stop this from working short of making upright spikes nearly useless, or outright and blatantly preventing training weapons from being used in them, and as such I see no reason not to use them, as they make perfectly logical sense within the game.

And frankly, given that training accidents don't happen anymore, they're the most viable way of using training weapons to actually train your soldiers.

My appointable dungeon master (of my own design, not copied from somewhere, though I imagine it should look similar enough, just added the lines [APPOINTED_BY:EXPEDITION_LEADER] and [APPOINTED_BY:MAYOR]) reads [RESPONSIBILITY:TAME_EXOTICS], so that should be the right string. Make sure the rest of him wasn't altered,


And this really should go in modding, yes this forum gets more traffic but that's not an excuse to use the improper forum for a given question.

smaller embarks mean larger FPS by virtue of the game not needing to keep track of as many things, the same reason why having few/no caverns increases FPS. This would probably be more pronounced in different biomes though, areas of thick vegetation need to keep track of tree/shrub growth across the map while a glacier doesn't have much going on in it.
