Visit Other Forts
« on: August 29, 2015, 01:47:47 am »

So I had a great idea in my opinion, bay12 could have  multi-fortress worlds that you can build taverns & hotels/embassies for dwarves from other Fortresses in your world just an idea any suggestion to add to this idea

I don't really understand what you mean. Are you suggesting letting people play multiple forts on the same world? You can already do that. Maybe you mean at the same time? Because that would cause one of three problems: lots of lag due to running multiple fortresses at the same time, incredibly tedious due to playing one fort for a few seconds then going to another one, or time paradoxes where you can do something in one fortress, then be in an earlier time in another fortress and do something that would have made what you just did impossible, but didn't because playing multiple forts at once is probably never going to work.

Also in general suggestions should really be more than one sentence. Your suggestion doesn't have any information on how this would actually be implemented, or as I said even enough to properly convey what you're trying to say. You also really don't need to sign your username at the end of your posts we can already see it on the left of your post.

Its a feature. Impregnating booze is a planned tech tree for dwarves and this is a sneak peek at it.
