Yeah, how's it going Brassroast?  Even at 6 FPS, something must be going on...

[LordBrassroast]

I've only played though mid-Granite, FPS is that bad. But the trapper finished his mood, made a gabbro mechanisms, and is now a Legendary Mechanic. Also, the eldritch winged blob from Hell in the old trade depot. WTF?!?

[Iamblichos]

Uh, did you not read my updates?

The blob is trapped in the old depot.  It is walled in.  It cannot get out unless the levers are opened.

DO NOT OPEN THE LEVERS.

[Gwolfski]

deconstruct them.

[LordBrassroast]

I've read succession game stories. I plan to never ever pull a single lever in the entire fort.

translation: you are going to pull them in haste, forgetting what they do when the corpses come.

Idea: use dfhack's unreveal on the caverns. There's nothing interesting worth seeing down there at the moment, and it might gain you some fps.

[LordBrassroast]

Actually...That's bloody brilliant! There's literally ~100 undead in the caverns, so I'l try that 

EDIT: It's not working. I type unreveal into DFHack, and it just says "There is nothing to revert!" 

[LordBrassroast]

Also, Iamblichos, what levers do I pull to
a) let merchants in
b) collect the caged undead?

[Gwolfski]

if by collect undead you mean my tunnel thing, there are ... nvm i forgot

[DDDragoni]

I reveal only works on tiles that have been revealed through DFHack.

[QuQuasar]

There are 4 levers at the south-western end of the original main hall.

The southernmost two are the Most Excellent Levers of Gemstone Titan Murder Rampage, aka. the old trade depot.

The northern two are the current trade depot airlock levers.

[Iamblichos]

^^^ Yes, that.

Seriously, in my turn I provided a diagram and everything.

Whoops, sorry, I mixed up my dfhack commands.

Unfortunately, there's not a command that let's you just hide the caverns on command. The closest I can find is "Revflood", which would work... assuming you blocked up all the fortifications Gwolfski put in, and possibly temporarily deconstructed the magma forges.

I think the only other alternative is going to be mass caging, or maybe some sort of mega-cave-in trap that can kill dozens of them at once.

[Gwolfski]

One word: !!MAGMA!!
