Woody humans?!
« on: December 10, 2007, 08:52:00 am »

Are the humans complaining about my massive utilisation of wood!?

I may need to prepare for a siege soon, since I'm not willing to cease my wood usage.

If wood crafts offend them so much, why not make some -Diplomat bone earrings- and a +Diplomat skull totem+?

Odd how even the smallest human town has more wood logs than I've ever used in any version of the game put together.

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

It's too bad that diplomats are not another species.

But anyway, I hope that the humans don't siege me only because of environmental issues. Besides, there are too many trees. If I let them grow out of control, they would block the wagons.

That's what roads are for.

Incidentally, I've never been visited by an elven diplomat. Do they require something specific? (so I can avoid building it)

My stray dogs often chase fire imps back into the magma pipe and then continue fighting while burning and drowning in the lava. Truly their loyalty knows no bounds, but perhaps it should.

That brings to mind... can you build roads out of bone?

If not, totally going to find a way to mod my raws to include that.

What season was this?  Did the diplomat come with elven or human merchants?

I believe this was summer, and the human diplomat did come with a human caravan.

I think this save occurred not long before the diplomat spoke to me.

Is this using any mods?  In the future, you only need to upload the region from the save folder and the raw folder if you used any.  Should save some upload time.

Plain vanilla Dwarf Fortress, v0.27.169.33e. The map was generated by v0.27.169.33a, though, if that is relevant.

The diplomat in the save worked fine for me.  I'm not sure what's up.  The relevant text is only loaded in from the elven diplomacy function it calls in spring, so something really must have gotten out of wack for the diplomat to use the wrong one.
