Now that your improvng the health care system toady....
« on: March 17, 2009, 07:41:04 am »

How about making it so we can trade water in barrels, as well as add in the option of adding water to barrels?

That way we can stick a water stockpile right near the hospital.

The price of water of course should be effected from the terrian its comming from to the terrain its going to. That was deserts and Freezing still have access to water :)

You already can dig a pool and fill it near the hospital, can't you?

This was already covered at:

http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=3845.0

And for future reference, if you really want a feature to be implemented, at least take the time to give your suggestion a proper title... Such as: "GAMEPLAY - Ability to put water into barrels"  or anything descriptive of what the post is about.

I know its already been covered, this wasen't a suggestion for this feature, it was a suggestion to add this feature now since toady is already working with this code.

You're almost certainly out of luck.  The last thing this release needs is a few hundred often-requested-but-barely-relevant features delaying it for another month.

lol you must not program much if you think adding water to barrels is going to delay things by a month... Maybe a day.

At the rate things are going we wont see a release to December anyways. Not that im complaining.

Also water is very relevant to the gameplay. Unless toady makes it so you can feed liquor to sick dwarfs, then water becomes completly useless.

This alone wouldn't, no.  But your idea is no better (or worse), or more relevant to current development, than loads of other requested features.  That makes it highly unlikely to get singled out for immediate implementation.

Unless toady makes it so you can feed liquor to sick dwarfs, then water becomes completly useless.

He probably will.  The existing medical caretaking jobs will probably be gutted, and allowing soldiers to carry booze is on the list.
