Odd question: Are there any "F"s in the game?
« on: August 09, 2010, 09:34:08 am »

I'm trying to spell out slogans by building cages of captured creatures in specific patterns... eg: caged Goblins make a small-g, caged Giant Olms make a capital-O, and so forth.

Are there any capital-F's or small-f's in the game?

Cool! I've already got one Fox... now I just need another. I'm trying to spell: Dwarf Fortress

... still no CAPITAL-F's, huh?

*sigh*

Fun!

*sheesh*

Seriously, searching the raws for [CREATURE_TILE:'F'], I found no use of a capital F.  There are three lower-case f creatures (fox, cave fish man/woman, and cave floaters)

If you can't find a capital F, use a lowercase f and a capital ORTRESS.

That way if anybody asks, you can just say you left caps lock on.

Perhaps if you manage to catch a forgotten beast? Some of them have letters not used anywhere else I think.
