Evil Lava! (embark site request)
« on: January 25, 2010, 11:20:57 am »

I am looking for an a Dig Deeper embark that has a magma pipe in a terrifying(or haunted) terrain. Not much else matters. Trees, brooks, underground rivers or pools are not needed but always nice.

Easy, just look for a volcano in or near an evil biome, there will be magma pipes/pools in the surrounding area.

Having high volcanism helps.

If only the magma and evil counts, there isn't much hassle. Just look for them with the find option. Put evil to high and magma pipe to yes. If you want flux, underground river... turn them on as well and look for them. It should be easy to find.

Its surprizingly not easy to find. I am a veteran dwarf fortress player and I know about the finder. I got everything turned on in my embark finder inside the init file so I have been looking (admitedly mostly by hand) at all the evil sites generated and so far only one has had a magma pipe and that was in an unmodded dwarf fort. Now I want one with dig deeper.

I think there are some mods/utils out there that allow worldgen until a specific site is generated.

The landscape routinely being soaked in flammable fluids somehow seems less than benevolent.

Mess around with the worldgen parameters. Up the number of volcanos and evil areas. It's not too rare or difficult of a site, really.
