I suggest planning on a Megaproject already so that we are prepared for when the fail is scheduled to happen.

I knew you were an elf.

Spoiler tags work well for super-wide images.

Everybody loses. This is indisputable. But Aussie managed to win before he lost.

How old were those dwarves?

Dwarves die of old age somewhere between the age of 150 and 170 years old. You can see this in the raws as the [MAXAGE:150:170] token, which states that the dwarf will die sometime after they turn 150, and is guaranteed to die by/on their 170th birthday.

Yeah, that was the token I remembered when I was fiddling with stuff. But, my question was, how old were the dwarves in that screenshot?

Looking at the layout plans for housing brings up to things two my mind.

First is that in the mind of a seasoned veteran of DF, this is an okay solution for housing all the dwarves and later on, once proper rooms are ready to be dug within stone, this whole area can be converted into a massive treefarm, saving us the trouble of ever again having to brave the depths!

Second is that I wonder how many years will the entire population be forced to live on this soil-layer, when the ones planned within stone inevitably end up flooded, either with magma or water, or housing some forgotten monstrosity or a whole bunch of skeletal horrors or something.

I'm betting on 12.

12 because that's how many years will have passed between now and the end of Eric Blank's turn?

Too soon.

I haven't even STARTED the epic storytelling yet. Hellcannon has yet to progress beyond a "normal" succession fortress.

Wait until mine and Eric's turns come up. Then there will be reason for nomination.

"Server" and "client" are two different things. The client program can be found in the link in the OP. The server program is dfterm2, which can be found here.

On a related note, can dwarves die of old age?

If I remember correctly from the time when I was looking in the raws, dwarves have very long lifespans, so they typically die out from !!FUN!! before age eats them. Elves last even longer.

My personal longest was 5 years. I had 150-ish dwarves, and way too many cats, so my FPS was horrid. I pulled the cotton candy stick out and had some !!FUN!! with the clowns.

On-topic stuff:

Could a checkerboard be built around a mysterious construction and work the same way? I don't see why it wouldn't, but I don't have a whole lot of experience with HFS.

Sounds about right.

Actually I can't be mean to Eric, seeing as how he was the one who took the time to gen this world and all.

I've been bugging Carnes, but no reply as of yet. My computer isn't up to hosting a server, or else I would. If anyone else wants to host a server, I can help them set one up.
