I just channel out a space and dig out one tile next to it, like this:
Code: [Select]
....vX....
....^0....

v=down slope  ^=up slope  X=headstone  0=wooden coffin  .=dirt

It's really the same principle, I just hate making slopes.

Yeah, but it's faster to make slopes than individual stairwells.

I really can't wait till Armour/Weapon stands hold actual weapons/armour, place one inside someone's house and they put a sword on it. Would make giving everyone a weapon easier...

Let's hear some war stories!

My Plantation and the Silk Industry are competing for most valuable industry and the most luxurious accommodations for their workers but the designated silk clothier became legendary from a mood so silk goods are blowing cotton goods out of the water. The plantation however is hanging on by encompassing many more industries eggs, wine, and cotton put together are enough to secure the 2nd place position. The trapping industry provides more food than any other and is integral to the village but doesn't provide much in the way of exports. Stone and carpentry are the same story but are so far behind that most of their workers are homeless. My militia commander was recently killed by raptors so his position and ownership of the barracks are up for grabs.

Genesis, makes it easier to establish an above ground fort and as an added bonus litters the game with things that murder you.

A minute after I spawned a giant glowing bird swooped down and ripped out a miners eye. Genesis ups the ante on senseless violence.

I like it but I can't think of a good design. I'm terrible at making things look nice (noble's housing) and everything ends up looking like big rectangles.  :(

Rectangles are good think of all the good things that are rectangles. Monitors, books, doors all rectangles. You know who wasn't a rectangle? Hitler.

I just start with a fair sized rectangle for the bedroom (about 25 square urists) then slap slightly smaller rectangles on for dining rooms and offices. Alternately I just stack a couple of rectangles and connect them with a staircase.

But we build largely in rectangles... Plus, wooden scaffholding + sloped roofs are easy, and awesome £:
