Also as a small notice, RoboB0b, you may want to edit your profile so that your signature or your subtext marks you as the creator, so that people on this thread who don't check the official forums will know that you're not full of hot air.

A signature can include a link as well, just sayin'

Also suggestion: being able to resize the window of the game when it's not fullscreen.

You can change the resolution in the options menu, just not drag-resizing.  I find this to be acceptable, especially as it has a "custom resolution" input.

So, nobody here played Aurora I guess. After that, DF is a total cakewalk.
Aurora doesn't work well on anything its chosen resolution(s) aren't, though.
Yeah, it's from 2 pages earliler but I wanted to correct something.

It works well on 1366x768 (it probably works with others too but still, bigger is better) with the Resize Enabler and there is an option to force the game to make sure game adapts to smaller windows.

Resize enabler should enable you to resize (by dragging) every window.

I know about that option, but I want my drag resizing.

Don't know if it will work but it's supposed work with every window. Just run the .exe and drag resize that shit.

Between the discount and the euro change it was so cheap that I bought it.
I'll be trying it out later if I ever come by of some free time

The world names remind me so much of DF. My most recent encampment is titled "Bloatmouse".

Hey guys, great to see more people talking about this game. If you'd like to see more of the game I have a video series tutorial on youtube to help people out due to the fact that there's no tutorial or wiki as of yet.
You can check out the first episode and if you want to see more, see the playlist link below.
Hope this helps some people :)

There is a wiki and the ingame descriptions does a rather good job mostly.

The only thing I'm unsure of is where the golems are coming from or how to stop them. They seem to come from and get their name from dug tiles but I've never seen one appear. Does lighting tiles with torches stop them spawning?

Oh and the whole upset mechanic is irritating. I had guards at the entrance but didn't expect the golems at all so they beat on my workers and now most of them are upset and refusing to work.

Yeah, I've complained about my fort starving as my farmers sit emo in the grand hall.  RoboB0b is gonna take a closer look at Upset.

Anyone who wants a stopgap sprite for the torches might find use for these:

Replace the file with the same name in "Gnomoria\Content\Tilesheet".

It's just a quick job and unfortunately I couldn't make them taller and turn them into proper braziers. As you can see bellow the wood does colour correctly.

That torch looks fantastic! I'll use it right now, thanks. Kudos!
