But they never would have given up either. And compared to sitting around in this prison for the rest of my life? Losing is fun.

Use WinMerge to speed up code (or raws) comparing and merging. http://winmerge.org/about/screenshots/

And check out the today-updated Genesis mod unofficial release by me, as seen in my sig.

Lol, I'm tired. Sitting here thinking, wait, I didn't see Toady say that anywhere... :p

Love/hate you Toady, first you make a major release on valentines day, now this on the day I'm supposed to clean up the house for my wife's return home!

Sigh... Guess I'll have to enjoy this tonight :p

But you never see a movie where a terrible coal plant accident causes a horrible devastation, do you? Nope, everyone seems to think that nuclear plants get their energy by smacking live atomic warheads all day or something.

Sounds like the mine cart system has a learning curve approaching the squad/patrol system. Maybe I'll start up a fortress with a wiki tutorial in mind.

uhm. I've a pile with a wheelbarrow assigned, so only one dwarf at time collects item. idlers, even if they're idle, don't help in item collection

if you put wheelbarrow at 3, at most three dwarf will do picking.

keep that in mind, because for efficiency you'll need smaller, dedicated piles instead of large ones

Haven't got a chance to play around with it, but just based off others experiences, I'm hoping the 3 wheelbarrow limit will be lifted. If I have a 1:1 wheelbarrow/dwarf ratio I want to use them!

In a fat-fingered moment while setting up another military squad I accidentally created a captain of the guard rather than a militia captain.  His squad of near-legendary hammerdwarves equipped with high quality silver hammers then took it upon themselves to dispense justice to all the mandate breakers in the fortress.  It was quite messy.

In Japan, there's actually a law against releasing popular games during the workweek.  They make them delay releases until the weekend.

Oh well, I wasn't planning to be very productive this week anyhow :)

Toady - you got a typo in a inorganic_soil file -


[INORGANIC:SAND_WHITE]
[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:SOIL_TEMPLATE]
[STATE_NAME_ADJ:ALL_SOLID:white sand][DISPLAY_COLOR:7:6:1][TILE:178]
[SOIL][AQUIFER][SOIL_SAND]
[SOLID_DENSITY:1710] SCS = 90/5/5[SOLID_DENSITY:1600]

Last part is obviously left from last release and all other sands don't have them. And from Uristocrat's thread it shouldn't be in this sand.
Hope that helps:)

Yeah, it's not in mine.  I think that typo will be harmless, though it might give the sand the wrong density (err, insofar as these can have "wrong" densities... especially when sand is just something we tried to research sensible averages for).  You should be able to change "[SOLID_DENSITY:1710] SCS = 90/5/5[SOLID_DENSITY:1600]" to "[SOLID_DENSITY:1710] SCS = 90/5/5" with no ill effects.

And someone was talking to me about assigning different mineral compositions to the different colors of sand.  That would be cool if I could get proper averages, though with soil, density only changes the mining speed by a little bit, so it's not a huge change anyhow.

Falling units also count as 'falling objects' when calculating 'drop damage' now. I was in the arena, dropping elephants on same-team test subjects. Sure enough the victims take 3 "<body part> takes the full force of the impact" rolls, the same as the elephants dropping on them. This was with a 3-ish z-level drop.

Dodge-me traps would thus gain one additional source of damage: earlier suckers getting crushed by later suckers.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.
