[Quantum Drop]

What QD probably means is that he used a party of other/old adventurers to clear out a part of the map/savescum while he was actually playing with a new, fresh adventurer. That is certainly iffy, and to be avoided in the future, but we'll continue with the current save.

That's pretty much it, yeah. Since I was posting late and was probably tired, for clarity: after I retired the adventurer from this turn, I unretired some of my older ones to deal with part of the map, since those demons were capable of essentially one-shotting non-undead endgame adventurers. In hindsight I probably should've cleared that with the thread first...

(I do have a save where I didn't hit that area with Irthu, but Kesperan appears to have the save now so I guess that's something of a moot point.)

I’ve got the save and will try to make a start today.

Wish me luck!

Best of luck to you

Bralbaard's obviously the final authority in the matter, but I'm ok with it. The fact that some grizzled veterans briefly return from retirement to deal with existential threats to any travelers is a good tale. Also creatures that can one-shot anyone is beyond "general danger" and veers off into game-breaking.

Looking forward to your turn!


Speaking of clearing in the thread, is it ok to found a new fortress after adventure mode, but also to take control of one that I had already founded in previous turns, and to do this in the same week? And is it ok to use my adventurer (if he's still alive) or a member of the fortress (after the adventure turn ended) to move things between the two or to try to set something up? There were indications where it was not outright stated, but implied such were done before.

Edited for attempted improved clarity.

[Bralbaard]

That is all fine.

[Lurker Z]

That is all fine.

Awesome, thanks!


I've been doing some adventure mode testing, I haven't yet encountered any instability, at least between Cog's tower and Kosothducim. There's obvious some lag around the surroundings of the player-made fortresses, but for now nothing worse (though I played as a night creature, so I might have been spared invisible untargetable undead).

Adventure concluded!

Starting work on a fort tonight.

Really looking forward to seeing what your adventurer did.

Additionally is there any modifications that people use, it like make scroll and quires (adventurecraft) or is that not allowed?

[Eric Blank]

You wouldn't be able to modify an existing game without causing errors, usually. I do use an adventure craft-like mod in my worlds to make vanilla items. I'm not sure where I copied the original reactions from anymore, or if they technically still exist, I guess by this point it's kinda my own creation. I remember I didn't like the excessive tools and component crafting so I went straight to raw resources + edged item = final product.

[AvolitionBrit]

Yeah i didnt want to do mess around with it too much and i know adventurecraft makes lots of changes that could mess up the world. Will just vanilla it

[Bralbaard]

I've updated a number of posts.  I'm not sure if the turn list is up to date. Tell me if I missed anything.

[AvolitionBrit]

Turn list appears to be in order

[Lurker Z]

I don't see QD on the list. Maybe PM them if they want a turn?

[kesperan]

I’m playing currently.

My fort is not complete but I’m out of town until Sunday and I won’t have access. Does anyone object if I take an extra day or two?

[AvolitionBrit]

Being honest with my turn so close and if unchanged would fall into a very easy time for me to just dwarf fortress in one hand and gin in the other. So ideally I would prefer the normal time but I am biased so someone else should say what they think. But im sorry to hear that you haven't been able to complete your fort. I know how frustrating that can be.

[kesperan]

I’ll get it uploaded as soon as I can on Sunday then. Don’t want to leave you waiting.
