Is there a way to find where I am on the map?
« on: February 17, 2012, 10:36:18 am »

Hi! New player here. I'm wondering where I am on the map and if there's a way to find the same location again on a new play through.

See, I have a save game that is currently in this mountain made of gold. Trouble is, it was on my first game and I now have very specific layouts I was to use and well, first fortresses aren't always that great. I miss that mountain of gold! Sadly I didn't put a note down before I started, so I don't want to abandon the fortress if there's no way to find the location again. Is there a way to see my coordinates on the current map?

Selecting reclaim will point you to old fortress.

Wonderful! This deletes the current fortress and places me on the map where it was? I hope I can resize the area. Looks like my computer can handle a 6x6 so more tiles=more gold! :D

You can't resize.

Looks like it doesn't delete the fortress either. Ah well. Guess I'll have to find a new mountain of gold somewhere else. Thank you.
