Praise the miners! x2
« on: August 15, 2014, 03:03:55 pm »

Does getting this message twice upon discovering the magma sea mean that I have two separate clown cars on my map, or just two spires?

I've had more than one spire. I am pretty sure I've had three but after all that plump helmet wine one can never be sure ;). I do want to know the answer though in case someone knows.

It means you discovered 2 distinct "deep special tube" map features (i.e. adamantine veins) - each one generates its own announcement. HFS can emerge from either one, but it will still only be discovered once per embark region.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.
