Sometimes dwarves attempt to smoke from their rears, causing them to explode when they fart.

If your hemp stockpile catches fire, the resulting smoke will make any dwarves who breathe it extremely relaxed and massively increase their hunger.  It has similar effects on other sapients, too; a clever builder could weaponize it, forcing invaders to walk through hemp smoke clouds and watching as the pacified army wanders off the map in search of snacks.

If this happens when elves are around they'll eat your dwarves and each other.

Dwarves turn into elves if exposed to wood. Elves turn into dwarves if exposed to beard hair.

In order to increase frame-rate and simplify path-finding, I have the following proposal:

That dwarves be treated like vermin.

Vermin pop in and out of existence all the time.  If dwarves were treated in this way it would reduce the load on the processor as the game wouldn't have to make any calculations for frames in which the dwarves were not in existence.  Furthermore, as a cloud of vermin seems to take up the same amount of processing time as a single vermin, further gains could be achieved by generating multiple dwarves together as a cloud.  Path-finding would also be simplified as a cloud of dwarves could be generated wherever they were needed.

Hopefully, this suggestion will be a turning point in the fight against FPS death.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

Add river sloops and dock. For TLAP day, Sept 19. Once built have villanous trademen, visitors arrive, bearing animal men slaves, finger food(made of real fingers), and little hairy stowaways intent on squating in already claimed bedrooms.

Implement the economy with a fully-functional stock market system.  Dwarves can now get rich by investment trading.

Probably the same way it worked in the 20s.

Dwarves that don't get rich can start Occupy Uriststreet movements.

And no matter how much you buid/produce many dwarves have no room and a lot of them starve to death or kill themselves.
