It's a little hard to envision what you are talking about...(I'm not as spatially minded as some of you seem to be) do you mean that if you block the river close to the edge of the map and you cut off all other access to your fort, wagons and sieges will spawn on the dry riverbed?
thats the general idea...

If you're digging lengthwise tunnels instead of dig do up/down stairs- that way your tunnel reveals 3 levels at once.

-though if you dug into the bottom of the river you'd get some very flooded miners.
Then only use down stairs :P or install a flood protection every 40 spaces.

would this mean that a baby imprints on the first creature that picks it up?
And until then it thinks it has no mother and goes take a fun gravitationally driven trip?

Although it would look funny:
leason: (shouting) i've come to discuss your situation!
Dwarf: (shouting) Ok, wait a sec...
*mechanical sounds*
*splat*
Dwarf: (shouting) sorry, my bad.

Well, it's a question? I dunno.
So, you deem installing/uninstalling games part of the gameplay?
You sir, might be easily entertained.

[No,to my knowledge objects inside a fortification will not hinder your Marksdwarfs,however itīs constant blinking may be annyoing,in which case I suggest you to rebuild the fortification since there is no other way to remove the item in question]
NO! THERE IS ALWAYS MAGMA! MAAAAAAAGMAAAAAAAA!!!!

Solution to Swine Flu:
Grates to magma pit installed under every bed with levers at the WHO attached to the grates. Then all they gotta do to stop the virus is to pull the level when symptoms show up!
God i feel Swinefluish... perhaps i should get some water... *gets out of bed and watches it disappear in the magma behind him* ... oooookay...

So I was wandering around in travel, and stumbled across a haunted area. The next thing I know I'm in a 1x1 square and on above next Z level are a few enemies. I've no idea how to get out of this box, can anyone help? D:
go to sleep, and hope you can travel afterwards.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Re: Bows > Everything?
« on: April 29, 2009, 03:54:03 pm »
Lemme dump my frustration here too. Got a nice new adventurer, no insane skills or equipment but still enough go murder everyone in a town...
I was just walking away from the house where had just butchered a axe armed guard, when a (after a proper introduction") legendary marksman started sending bolt's my way from the other side of a river.
I quickly ran into the home, got the axe from the guard and threw it at the marksman, beheading him cleanly. and just as i was thinking, "awesome!" a SECOND LEGENDARY MARKSMAN POPPED OUT FROM NOWHERE AND KILLED ME IN ONE SHOT.

Most of my fortresses are played with 0 export value, at least I dont trade.

yes, why trade when you can seize pour water magma on the caravan?

also, watching goblins/elves/nobles scatter themselves backwards over a wide area is really fun to watch.
