Wait for Next Version, Use current (.40.24,) or use older release (.34.11?)

We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

I'll take .34.11 thanks. I want to know I'll get to kill things for sure.

I blame just how quickly I read but even with 50ppp I tend to just blow through pages and it feels like there is more loading than not if I don't have it that high. Well unless it's a page just full of updates and stories. Those are special.

I (somehow) wield a marble coffin that i fill with the corpses of all I have slain (to make an already heavy object even heavier) in one hand, and the other holds a book made out out of fucking platinum. The book can crush skulls, and the coffin grows ever stronger and now that is has a few dead dragons in it, it sends people flying a mile backwards to explode in a pile of gore. Gore which I then place into the coffin,

Honestly haven't gone into the settings very much. I should probably change some things.

Well, my potatotop from 2004 doesn't like 50ppp, so I've got it to slightly more manageable levels.

Yeah I used 25ppp for a while but switched to 50 at some point and haven't bothered to change back. 25 is a bit too short and 50 is a bit too long for me though.

I've never understood why 30 or 35 aren't options. It makes no sense and just feels arbitrary.

Please tell me you're exaggerating about how old what you're using is. That would just be..... madness.

When I first got interested in Dwarf Fortress, in about 2009, I was using a computer from early 2003. That said, it was a pretty beefy one back then.

I'm not exactly sure how old this thing is, since I obtained it much later, but it's about that old.

And there is in fact a new computer in the pipelines, ETA probably sometime next year. I also have a slightly newer laptop, in much worse condition, that is capable of running modern versions of DF.

Better forge a battle plan now, Splint. The faster we get a work plan going, the sooner the new fort will be up.

E: Also, forgive me for pre-emptively hijacking the thread, but I'd ran into the hourly PM limit like a brick wall :V

It's fine. In addition to playing the new version (I had the good luck of embarking on a damned bandit camp,) I'm working on some basic stuff for factions at the moment for the intro.

Gonna mess around with the new version to see what its capabilities are (sieges sieges sieges SIEGES SIEGES PLEASE LET SIEGES BE FUNCTIONAL) and how nicely it plays with my craptop (if I get like 30FPS in my first year then I won't be able to take a turn, or really do much of anything). See y'all soon~

E: Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh all these new syndrome tagsssssssssssssssssssssss
