Building next to settlements?
« on: August 08, 2012, 03:04:52 pm »

I read some things on the wiki that suggest it's possible to embark on an area with a settlement in it. How does one do this?

You don't - the part of the wiki you were reading was for an older version, and it's no longer possible to embark on top of a Human town.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

I am currently investigating what Brainfreez is on. It is the greatest drug that any man, woman, kobold or pony has ever seen, going off of that everything he posts is pure win.

I believe there's a DF tool out there called "Just Embark" that will allow you to settle pretty much anywhere you're not supposed to.  Never tried it myself, so I can't say for certain how well it works, if at all.

It works. Everyone hates you. Die and reclaim, the dwarf-killers stay around all friendly while the others have vanished. Also, only towns and fortresses (not the dwarven kind or the goblin kind) exist.
