Today my husband surprised me with a legendary tiramisu birthday cake. It menaces with spikes of buttercream frosting.

DF Gameplay Questions / Battle miners?
« on: February 22, 2013, 04:00:02 pm »
How can I get a miner to wear armor and carry a pick axe into battle? Leaving her without a weapon assigned doesn't seem to work.

What cash value does something have to have for a dwarf to consider it completely sublime? (Supposing no preference for the materials.)

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / How do I find a market?
« on: March 23, 2012, 05:23:57 pm »
I've played a few adventurers since the 2012 release and have not found a market yet. I used to be able to find them based on the color of town (gold for markets, using Phoebus' graphics) but the graphics and towns all look different now. What should I be looking for?

DF Gameplay Questions / Is it normal for waterfalls...
« on: March 16, 2012, 05:19:15 pm »
...to lose water gradually as time goes on? My waterfalls always need periodic refilling, which is tedious.
Edit: I mean dwarf-made waterfalls constructed with the use of pumps.

DF Gameplay Questions / Dwarf soldier flaunts convention with pantless style of fighting
« on: February 17, 2012, 07:21:04 pm »
Seriously, he won't put on any greaves, a mail shirt, and he's only wearing one glove. The armor stockpile has many of these things, but he won't touch it. The clothing slots can't be taken up because he's not wearing clothing. He doesn't have any assignments. The way to the armor pile is clear. The burrow covers the entire fort. So...what's gone wrong?
I do have some ex-militia dwarves resting in the hospital, but they've been kicked out of the military. Could they be hogging the armor?

Is there a way to connect a lever to some part of a pump system so that I could turn the pump system on, or off, at will?

DF Gameplay Questions / Dwarven Relations?
« on: February 04, 2012, 06:11:51 pm »
What would happen to my relationship with the mountain home if I sealed my fort up for a few years and let the gobbos do what they wanted with the dwarven trade caravan and liasons? Will they ever get mad enough to attack or abandon my fort?

DF Gameplay Questions / How to cook with syrup?
« on: February 01, 2012, 12:39:13 am »
I have a custom stockpile of barrels of syrup next to the kitchen. The cook still prefers to trek across the room and grab only solid meat to cook with. Aagh1!!?

DF Gameplay Questions / Do dwarfs care about the material of walls and floors?
« on: January 23, 2012, 03:08:31 pm »
I'm trying to decide whether to locate my fortress in the layer of mudstone or marble and sphalerite.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / How to open/loot chests on the ground?
« on: January 19, 2012, 08:37:28 pm »
Sorry, I checked the wiki and Google but couldn't find the answer to this. I used to play Adventurer mode and I was sure there was a way to loot a chest on the ground (say, that you find sitting around a bandit camp or in a lair) but I can't figure out how to do it now...

DF Gameplay Questions / Offering to Caravan
« on: August 18, 2011, 11:20:26 pm »
Is there a reason that my offering to the Caravan doesn't show up in the noble's screen where it lists the requirements to become the capital? I offered about $30,000 worth of food prepared at my fortress and the dwarven trader said he'd make sure his leader gets it, but the requirements list still reads $0 has been offered. Does the food not count; do I have to trade crafts instead? Or am I doing something else wrong? The queen is alive, I checked, and the food was made entirely at my fort.
Edit: I tried offering some steel short swords and shields made at my fort, but the the "current" offering still stands at 0 on the requirements screen.

DF General Discussion / Is there a way to change the color of graphics?
« on: August 17, 2011, 01:34:49 am »
Particularly, I'd like to brighten the appearance of the constructed floor tiles. I'm using Phoebus' graphics, if that matters.

DF Gameplay Questions / I've been in free clinics like this...
« on: August 12, 2011, 05:37:51 pm »
Eight dwarves appear to be piled on one bed in my hospital while the doctor operates. Yeah, it's a small hospital, but there are clearly 3 free beds next to them. Has this happened to anyone else?
