33c - dwarf likes sandy clay loam
« on: December 03, 2007, 12:40:00 am »
Like the title says. I modded the raws a bit, if that makes a difference. Also, a different dwarf likes one of the metals I added, even though I marked it [DEEP] - don't know if that's a bug or not.

Why would liking sandy clay loam be a bug?

I bet that dwarf would like a bedroom carved out of it  :)

It is a slightly insane thing to have a passion for, but I don't see it as a "bug".

You can get blocks of it from Dwarven caravans I think.

How they make it?  Ancient Dwarven secret.

Yeah. I had a mayor once that demanded admantine, even though I'm pretty sure there wasn't any on that map. Needless to say, he had a tragic accident shortly after. He will be missed.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, but dwarves can like [deep] stone.

I haven't seen dirt rocks either.  I've got a little patch of sandy loam, I was sad to learn that you can't gather sand from it.  I've lost 4 fey dwarves who wanted glass.  Oh well better luck next fort.

I think it's ok for someone to like sandy loam.. maybe items can be made from it theoretically.

Atleast it appears in a larger abundance then brimstone. Speaking of which, i can't order the latter from caravans and i never encountered it in the ground.

Idea: Gathering sand from a sand tile: Next to no time. Extract sand from sandy soil tile: Takes a long time, but you can do it, just to get sand from maps without full sand tiles!

Alternatively, allow ordering of sandbags from caravan.
