Artifact limit?
« on: December 11, 2007, 03:58:00 pm »

Is there a new artifact limit or no limit now?  I thought the limit was 15 but I just got my 16th artifact.

The wiki last version was wrong, there was no 15 artifact limit. I personally got at least 17, and I think maybe an 18th if I remember right.

I don't know what the limit actually was, or if there was one. more artifacts seemed to be triggered by how deep you had dug though I never really got around to figuring out any sort of pattern before the new version came out.

I have no real idea how it works this version.

I thought Toady had confirmed a limit on moods, thus a limit on artifacts?

i think it was a limit on Fey moods, so there would be a limit on easy legendaries

If anyone finds out what if any limits there are make sure to post them here and on the wiki. I think it would be cool to have a community fortress with the goal of continuing till it hits the artifact limit.

The Fey mood thing sounds likely to me, though...  it'd be easy to see how someone could mistake that for a limit on artifacts, without taking possessions into consideration.

There's a total growing limit based on how many items you've made and how many subterranean squares you've unhidden.

Is that a limit on just Fey Moods or all crafting moods?

Thanks for the info, Toady!

All of them, in the interest of controlling the number of artifacts in inconsequential forts.
