DF General Discussion / Re: Streaming: Artificial Intelligence Plays Dwarf Fortress [Twitch]

Having a lot of fun with this, hope you continue developing it.  Been messing around with the dwarves by opening up the caverns a bit more to let more creatures up haha. Also like what happens to the caged baddies.  During one game it didn't seem to be brewing and once the drinks ran out they started heading for a water source (down in the caverns which was 'fun' muhaha). There were plenty of plants so I set up a Repeat order for brewing and drinks started being stockpiled again, so not sure what happened there. Hopefully will end up being able to continue from a Save. Looking forward to future updates!

If only it had been a weapon as some guessed above...

Shadmalvir Isos Ezneth, "Confusestars the Dale of Fragments", a spiked gold ball

This is a spiked gold ball. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encirled with bands of giant cave spider silk, square cut gold opals and cougar leather. This object menaces with spikes of gold and mahogany.
On the item is an image of Confusestars the Dale of Fragments the spiked gold ball in red grossular.
On the item is an image of a tapered baguette cut gem in tetrahedrite.
On the item is an image of Confusestars the Dale of Fragments the spiked gold ball in gold opal.


549,600 dwarf bucks! Never would have guessed that!


Created wealth now 1,531,560!

Oh and after reading your post Solon64 I have learnt something, hopefully I would have realised this at some point haha. Indeed Doren Degeltost's prefence was spiked balls. Time for some changes.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / The price is right

Who can guess the price of the soon to be created artifact!

So after a crown, harp, earring, marble door, hatch cover, and leather skirt finally a decent artifact may be in the making. Doren Degeltost, Weaponsmith, has begun a mysterious construction in a Metalsmith Forge.

The ingredients:
gold bars
(giant cave spider silk cloth)
rough red grossulars
point cut gold opals
mahogany logs
tetrahedrite
point cut gold opals
(cougar leather)

What will the final product be and how many dwarf bucks will it be worth!?

Come on down!


ps And why are some of the ingredients in brackets? (Still a bit of a noob.. ok a lot)

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Who got the kill?
« on: March 11, 2013, 04:34:52 am »
So a dragon turned up and i sent out my two Marksdwarf squads (about 6 per squad). They are not very skilled and in the fight it appears they are all dieing to the dragons fire.  I notice one running away to Pickup Equipment and check the health of the dragon and it is badly injured.  I watch the huge brush fire for a few seconds and then check back to the dragon, hoping that the surviving Marksdwarf is on its way back soon, and notice the dragon is dead. I check the combat report and the final line says:

"The dragon is caught in a burst of boiling dwarven ale!"

Who got the kill?

a) The dwarf that dropped the booze on their death
b) The dragon self terminated, due to its own fire igniting the booze
c) !!Science!!

Then shortly after i get a reports that one of my crossbow dwarves and my hunter have been missing for about a week. Not sure if related, will have to investigate.

And outside of my fortress the world is burning.

Fun :)

Other Games / Re: Nethack

Hey

Been a lurker on these forums for quite a while and recently found a newsgroup post i made back in 2001 when i beat Nethack for the first time so i just had to register so i could post it  :D

Right at the end of the game I make one of the dumbest decisions i have ever made in a game.

I have beaten it once more since with a Wizard, haven't played for quite a while though and so i have forgotten quite a bit.

My victory post contains some spoilers.
