Easter eggs list!
« on: October 12, 2007, 08:34:00 pm »

How about listing all easter eggs we find? Where are some I found:

In Adventure mode, checking temperature and weather:

"Being dead is cold and clammy" When you try to check temperature while dead!

"There is no sunlight when you are dead" When you check for weather while dead!

Lets not forget Scrolling too far in Fortress mode!

Not so much an easter egg as an interesting feature I never noticed before : The Elves name every tree in their groves. Also, you can eat live worms by searcing an area carefully (to discover them).

Also, attempting to eat swamp water or mud gives you "No. Thats disgusting."

Unless you're super thirsty or hungry.

Yeah, I always thought that message was odd. If I decide I want to eat mud or swamp water, thats my damn choice. I mean, the adventurer has no problem with licking the severed limbs of my foes, but a little mud is somehow offensive?

Because disease and more complicated health isn't implemented yet, when it is, you can eat all the lead and sewage you want.  :D

Awesome, never knew about those two. You also get a message when trying to search for 'Electrum' from the Manager menu if you don't have the Dungeon Master (or trying to buy it on 'Embark Journey') :

Can someone explain the joke here to me? I don't get it.

Less of an Easter Egg and more of a tip: When you reclaim a fort, all features previously found are fully exposed (river/chasm/magma) and are no longer limited to only what your dwarves could see previously. I've used this once so I could plan my fort around any branches in the features.

Eat enough silver and you turn blue. (seriously)

And eat enough carrots and you will get very yellow skin.

I used to know something that gave you green skin, i think it was a vitamin deficiency or something.
