I've started posting more on the forums lately, albeit not that much more. I have this bad habit of writing replies to many topics, and then just deleting them. And my username is from when I was younger, and with the new Marvel movies there's a connection some people draw, that's uh, kind of amusing hehe. But, I'm starting to break up that habit, a bit.

IIRC, when your alcohol starts to freeze, so do the dwarves, which is rather fitting.

+1 to this
Seems like it would be somewhat simple to implement, and could be pretty cool!

DF Suggestions / Re: Bug(s) that you personally find annoying
« on: January 11, 2018, 08:19:56 pm »You are aware that there is a bug tracker right.
Why you put it here and not in the bug report fourm anyway?
The bug report subforum is effectively dead

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: How can I temporarily disable a squad?
« on: January 11, 2018, 08:15:06 pm »
PITA means Pain In The Ass, hehe
Anyways, recording a macro in DF is pretty easy once you get used to it, and extremely useful / time saving if you become proficient.
First, hit Ctrl + (r) to start recording; you should see a flashing REC in the corner of the screen while it is recording. While the macro is recording, any keys you press will be saved to memory. Simply go ahead and disable the squads as you would normally. Then, once you're done, hit Ctrl + r to stop recording, followed by Ctrl + (s)ave, and name the macro. To load and play a macro, select your saved macro using Ctrl + (l)ist, and after it is selected, hit Ctrl + (p)lay. The macro will perform your inputs exactly as you entered them, so if what you're doing requires precision (i.e. setting labors automatically, designating certain rooms with macros, etc.) remember to put your cursor where it should be for that macro, and with the proper menu selected.
If you want to chain macros together, say for designating a certain number of rooms to be carved out, hit Ctrl + u, then input the number of times you want the macro repeated, followed by Ctrl + p. Oh, and if you want to delete a saved macro, hit ESC, go to key bindings, and delete it from that menu.
Hope this helps!

There are rumors that Jeff Sessions is going to end the policy which has allowed pot to be legal in some states (https://www.politico.com/story/2018/01/04/jeff-sessions-marijuana-policy-us-attorney-enforcement-324020)
I don't smoke pot, but I think that it should be legal

I had a dream where I fell into an ASCII pond, and beat up a carp, and then drowned. I have never woken up so confused
