Sand In The Site Finder
« on: May 22, 2011, 02:19:24 pm »
While clay has, for me, replaced glass as the infinite-resources industry, I'd like to be able to find sand easily when I want to make glass. Would it be hard to add an option to the site finder for sand?

For now you can embark in deserts and beaches where sand is guaranteed, or use your adventurer to find what you want.

Sand does not appear to be guaranteed on beaches. I had a fortress on a sandstone pebble beach for a bit. I'd agree that if it is not hard to set up it would be nice to search for it.

Whenever dwarves get into melee, their first reaction is to place their baby on their head, to allow free use of both hands, and thus any headshot instead strikes the child.
