Would you like to know how long a reference to a popular movie can be dragged out before it becomes tiresome?

This is the internet.  We're supposed to repeat catch phrases ad nausaeum.

World gen information is inside the spoiler.  So not to bollocks up this.... discussion.

Also check this site out.  The spire I started on was an island in the middle of sky, so I paused immediately and took a 3ddwarf shot.  This is a glacier tile by the way.



It's endlessly amusing.

That is frickin' awesome!  Huge mountainside with a wonky round tower just waiting to be carved into a fortress.

I'm pretty sure that wonky round tower is lava.

Is it about to spill out off the side of the mountain, or what?

man, that'd be -awesome-  You'd have a fort built into the side of a freaking erupting volcano, though it looks like it's due to a bug :/.  Is that a bottomless pit there, or is it actually a magma pipe?

 Yeah, as far as I know in 3ddwarf all stone has the same colour, regardless of properties, so  thats gotta be lava.

Yes, it was lava, from the magma-pit bug.  The bottomless pit was there, full of magma, and with magma ten stories above the top of the pit as well.  So the magma fell, which covered that whole area of the mountain, and killed my FPS down to about .05.  Seriously, I got a game update about once a minute.

Had to abandon.  Was still pretty cool looking though.

Temperature ranges from -100 to 200?  That sounds deliciously deadly.

It's like you're all trying to outdo each other in sheer useless pedantry.

Could you post your worldgen paramater set? I maxed out all the variations and lowered the minimum region counts, but no matter how much I messed around I couldn't get a world past lake creation.

It's fun times to be adventuring at night on a glacier.  You can still walk around but you take constant wounds.

It's posted under the spoiler link in both my post with the picture and the post directly after yours.
