Imageshack is borked so no images atm. At the bottom right of the map, find the volcano hugging the edge and move 4 overworld tiles to the right(so there's 3 tiles between you and the volcano). Make the 6x6 cursor hug the bottom of the screen and move it so it's 4 small tiles away from the left edge. It should say you only have 1 biome, which has no aquifier and the layers in order being red sand, loamy sand, obsidian, rhyolite and granite. Now move the 6x6 cursor 1 tile to the right. Note that you are still in a single biome area which is still covered for 84% by your original, dry area but now there's another black sand layer ontop and the loamy one is now an aquifier. If somebody has a free imagehost that doesn't require registration i would greatly appreciate it.

From what Im getting from your description the actual map you get when you deploy should have a aquifer of the left side which should run into a stone layer. That said Im not sure how DF handles aquifer edges so you could end up with either no aquifer at all or a full aquifer across the whole map like you normally get with an aquifer warning.

Photobucket's the other good image host (if someone tells you to use Imageshack, don't). It requires a bit more time to set up than tinypic, but it saves your images for you, which is nice.


Uncle Unty's Tip of the Day: When you post images via one of these image hosts, copy the "IMG code" link, and paste it in your message. Simplest way I can think of.

Or you can copy the direct link and put it inside image tags yourself, if you prefer it that way.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.
