If you could change what your dwarves liked to eat & drink ...
« on: July 09, 2012, 12:32:34 pm »
Presuming you could, which of the following would you most want your dwarves to prefer consuming for food(plants) & drink?

Belowground food:
Belowground drink:
Aboveground food:
Aboveground drink:

I'm looking for something like

Plump Helmets
Dwarven Wine
Wild Strawberry
Strawberry Wine

or

Quarry Bush Leaves
Dwarven Ale
Prickle Berry
Sunshine

etc.  Just one choice for each.

I'm collecting this information to find out what players will find most useful, given a hypothetical "preference adjuster" for DF.  This would be used for the default aboveground & belowground adjustment profiles.
Thanks in advance for any responses, and if you'd prefer to keep your response private, a PM to me is fine too.

An option which determines these preferences dynamically based on your current food & drink stockpiles is also a possible feature, but I've got to start somewhere. :)

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Babies.  My dwarfs are way too virile.
