So, just saw what was coming in 40.13
« on: September 12, 2014, 06:10:10 pm »

Quote from: Toady One
I handled a lighting issue with trees, concerning how subterranean tiles became messed up after digging below the trunk. Then I worked with grazing animals and pastures. The relationship between animal size and the amount of grass necessary now uses a fractional exponent properly, so that larger critters can survive, and they won't drift and clump in the top left parts of pastures. They'll also prefer denser grass tiles when they are available, to stop them from starving between fresh sparse grass in large pastures.

I was getting used to crying a little as I saw groups of rhinos and elephants walk by.

Thank you, Great deity of the Toad!
We can now kill elephants, with elephants (well, we could before, but nevertheless). Boatmurdered would be proud.

What would it be like to live in a world that was copy/pasted? Would we even notice? If not, how many times have we switched celestial harddrives or whatever?

Those things, coupled with:

Stopped civs from sending a squad when they failed to find thieves/snatchers to send (led to small sieges in the first year)
Allowed recover wounded jobs to bring dwarves to hospital floor if no beds are available
Stopped recover wounded jobs from bringing dwarves to non-hospital beds
Made caged/chained people request water/food with proper frequency

from .12, and I'm a happy man.

Just make war dogs bite, and a couple more little bug fixes involving goblin-other people relations, and I'll be a happy man.
