Well, sort of. Has any one actually got Dragons to work? I mean fly and brath fire?

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

While playing as them in Adventure mode?

Fly, yes. Firebreath, I'm not so sure about.


Just add 2WINGS to the body token and [FLIER] somewhere else to make them fly. Use the vertical keys (default < and >) to fly.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

1. Did you start a new world after you added those? Normally, you don't have to make a new world for changing an existing entry, but now that the game keeps track of significant creature's body parts throughout history, you probably should do that.

2. I don't think you can fly while sitting down. You might have got knocked over by a wombat or something before you had a chance to fly. I doubt it, though.

3. (Probably the cause) You can't fly into unallocated areas. If you're in a flat place, it won't work. Try flying up in the mountains or next to a goblin tower.

Thats probably why I am trying to fly in a Human town

Edit: It depends what human town you are in, if you are lucky enough to be in a town with a temple or a keep( or both) then the fliying combat is kick ass. What i did is that I charged into the temple and flew up to the fistr story of it. I knocked the preistess down in the first nove, despite the speach before hand. The preistess drowned after ward and I flew to the top of the Keep and noticed that I was being shot at, I attacked the bowman and despatched his legs so he could not move. The human miller that was milling about on the top, get it milling,ok comes over and starts punching me in the wing. Any way there is a breif tussle and then the Axeman hit me in the head which poked my neck and throught out, I was heavly bleeding and a mortal wound, I died in mid-air which was strangly becaus i remained in mid air.
