embark question
« on: June 08, 2010, 11:01:10 am »

 As I have never seen one I was wondering...Is it even possible to find a spot with a volcano, flux, and a layer that might have coal in it?

Possible? Yes. Likely? No. An example of a 40d##-map with (nearly) all features is Dwarf Heaven. In the new version, there's 100% of magma if you dig deep enough (and have a standard world generated), so you could look for a map with dolomite, chalk or limestone. Those are all flux layers and sedimentary, meaning they have iron ores and lignite/bituminous coal. However, the magma is deep. REALLY deep.
