TSW Cancels Sleep: Strange Mood
« on: July 10, 2009, 06:17:41 am »

Uh... Wow.   I think I actually had a strange mood last night.

In it, there were three things that, between the game itself and modding the raws, I -MUST- now create. (Or will, as soon as I figure out how.)



A: A bedroom with a magma pool in the center.
No, don't ask me why. In part of the dream, I was sitting IN my fortress, while a friend was PLAYING dwarf fortress. (wut.) Having been on for 12+ hours in a sweaty mine in a mine, I was going to offer to let him crash in my new miners' barracks instead of climbing all the way back upstairs. Thinking for a moment, I realized that perhaps a room with a magma pool in the center may be just a bit -too- dwarfy...   and helped him back up the stairs.
IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. I don't know why I never thought of such a thing before.

Tonight, my dwarves shall sleep with central heating.



B: Thermal Demolition Charges

C: Det' Cord


Apparently, there was a migrant wave during a volcanically cataclysmic event. I was going to free a bunch of partially-mutilated survivors. (They were being pelted with magma at this point which, while rather traumatic to visualize in dream form, still somehow amused me.)

I found such lovely items as a demolition charge and detonator cords. I wonder if it's possible to create such things given the options we have now.

Sounds like someone is in the process of becoming unsane!

I don't think you can create explosives.
You better ask somebody to lock you up before you go berserk.

Are explosives and terrain damage from explosive on the list?  I hope so.  I want my catapults to leave smoking craters.

Apparently, all they've been known to do is just burn and cause a lot of smoke. So no, explosives are not available as of yet. That is if they ever get put in.

Also, TSW, how did you come up with your forum name...?

I have strange moods every other hour, sadly most of them end up creating a new philosophical concept that depresses me until I drop it into the magma
