Blood cleanup
« on: September 15, 2010, 07:15:34 pm »

I miss the old cleanup blood on season change with the old version, where any blood above or below ground would vanish on the change of a season.

In fact  suspect blood spatter is what has been lagging all my forts thus far. There's nothing else common to all forts and games to explain the FPS going steadily down to 1,
no matter what I do. And nothing seems to fix it.

Is there a way to turn off blood spatter altogether? Could we have an option for this or return the seasonal blood cleanup? Any scripts for blood cleanup on Linux?

Engraved on the monitor is an exceptionally designed image of FPS in Dwarf Fortress and it's multicore support by Toady. Toady is raising the multicore. The artwork relates to the masterful multicore support by Toady for the Dwarf Fortress in midwinter of 2010. Toady is surrounded by dwarves. The dwarves are rejoicing.

DFHack has a tool for this.

One that I have yet to get to work. I think this cleanup feature should be in DF, however, to maintain decent FPS.

Maybe you could add some sort of reaction to the blood. Trough that might make your dwarfs act weird.

It doesn't work? How so?
