Woah #2: My magma pit is flooding.

Uh, little question;  I've been working on a mod for a bit now, and although it doesn't exactly have a lot of stuff in it, I'd rather not do it all over again.  Is there a list of the specific files that have had changes made to them, so I can pick and choose my way through the update, or should I just transfer from one set to the other?

Also, thanks for your continued chugging along to make Dwarf Fortress the great and majestic thing it is, even in this early stage.  We really do owe it to you, mate.

Sooo many bug fixes; great!

No mac yet?  Sniff...

There are various tools that will find changes; GNU diff if you're a unix type, dunno about windows-based utilities.

Wait a sec, wait a sec...
does this mean that a Mac version will be out in the near future?!?!  :eek:

It's called 'file changes.txt'.  It's in the root of the archive.

In regards to my previous post:
nevermind, I read the other thread and found my answer.

Awsome additions. Just hurry and fix the hunting bug!  

[Earthquake Damage]

This release is ☼AWESOME☼!

Hi!

This new version is really neat. My fortress is still young (second dwarf caravan) so there has not been that much happening, but things have been good fun thus far.

I was even lucky enough to have my strange mood dwarves not being socially active (only had some passing aquaintances), so their death wasn't burdening the fortress (I just hope the posessed weapon smith doesn't use the well shaft for suicide as well (^_^;; ).

There was one thing I was wondering about; if I want to delete a region, all I need to do is delete its directories in the "save" directory, right? My first region in the new version didn't really have a lot of places where I would have liked to play, so I started from scratch by deleting aforementioned directory. I hope that was right that way.

Anyhow, things are looking good here and this game is really great fun.

Yeah, deleting the region folder is the right way to go about it.  There's no record of the region elsewhere.

[Lord Aether]

Sooo...  Dare I ask why the traps kill the dwarven caravan?

Like the new social aspect of the game

Why would anybody want fewer cave spiders?
 :roll:

[Nite/m4re]

Maybe he means giant cave spiders?

The trap issue is a bug which somehow came about from the map feature creatures being able to dodge traps, though I haven't looked at it yet so I have no idea why it broke so thoroughly.
