DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Kea > Badgers?
« on: June 26, 2015, 09:46:24 pm »
Something similar happened to me during my glacier embark. Starting seven decided to just go all fistacuffs on some poor yeti that walked into the wrong neighborhood. By the third week, he was quite bruised and dented, but other than that was completely passive and fine.
I wonder what causes this sort of behavior though. I mean, shouldn't one of those dwarves be able to land a death blow? Has anyone done any science on this occurrence?

Getting marksdwarves to reliably attack a certain target is almost impossible - at least not without the help of strategically placed fortifications.
And that tree bug was fixed a while ago, IIRC.
Hunters could pose a minor threat to keas, sure, but they travel in packs of 5-10. Killing a few won't make that much of a difference.

I wonder if this is another symptom of this bug here

You'll need to add the EDIBLE_COOKED tag to the blood and ichor material templates to have them be cookable in prepared meals.

You can't trade wild animals. The dwarves will just release them from their cages when assigned to bring them to the depot.
If they are trained to some extent however, they'll be tradeable . And it will help a smidge with the lag. From what I've gathered, large swaths of aboveground trees seem to be the biggest source of lag as of this version.
A creature's trade value is determined by their pet value, IIRC. And trogs don't have a pet value - probably because they're sentient. I could be wrong, but I think creatures with an undefined pet value will only go for 1 Urist.

I too find it a little bizarre that nearly everyone in the world just stands around awkwardly in their little communal homes. I don't think we'll see expanded movement of peoples until they have actual jobs to do, which is still very far off dev wise.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Weaponizing trolls? (and other animals)
« on: June 19, 2015, 04:09:12 pm »Well crap. Does anyone know what the changes are? They were fairly useful as a defense.
This is what was fixed
So now they shoot out actual globs of magma. Which still seem pretty damn effective, at least in my few arena tests.

I don't think so. I don't remember having any issues with my war black bears.
I'm fairly certain tame gremlins won't pull levers and stuff like that.

« on: June 13, 2015, 07:47:48 pm »... No water, no magma, no carts, no megaprojects... When you take all that out, what parts of the game are left? Do you just train for sieges all day every day? (New version must really suck for you...)
Heh, I'm one of those guys that just likes watching the dwarves do their thing. Finding the little stories amid all the hustle and bustle, that sort of stuff.
Sieges and megabeast invasions have actually been pretty plentiful for me in my most recent fort, which is always a plus.

I too have never pierced an aquifer, always modded them out.
After all these years, minecarts are still a complete mystery to me. Have never once attempted to use them in any of my forts - it just never seems worth the effort.
I rarely make much use of the magma on my map. Hell, most of time I ignore its fiery potential entirely.
Outside of big towers, I've never completed a true mega project worthy of dwarven engineering standards.
