Whelp! I live!

Had a bad bout of the flu, and was content just sitting under a pile of blankets shooting things on planetside and vectoring some ponies, sorry for the delay and lack of word.

I just finished the last of the class skills and as such the cutie mark redesign project should be done, at least the first pass.. some of the classes are more fleshed out than others, having personalities tied to their class as well. I've also made some groundwork for some interactions, but that won't be included for this version.

I'll clean up the files and see about dropping the new version up sometime early tomorrow.

Watch this space!

Heh, for a while I thought you had died or given the whole mod the finger. :P

Good to have you back man, it will be nice to have a peaceful classic fort going again.

[Lycaeon]

Glad to see you're feeling better Sorcerer!

[Indigo_Surprise]

Oh, tired of your wasteland turret guarded hell holes, Replica?

[Replica]

As awesome as Lycaeons and Valdiku's mods are, my heart and favorism still lies with Sorcerers Losing is Magic/Fanon is Magic.

I love the mods that keep it simple and focus on the care of your subjects rather than turning everything into an evil uber hell.
My favorite aspects of DF were never combat, slavery and killing, they are cooking, farming, healthcare and improvement of life. :)

I'm hoping for a list of changes and new features when it comes out. That's one of the great things about the updates, or any update really.

[Sorcerer]

1.4 is uploading as I type this, not a lot of changes, just really big ones.

Re-Revamped Cutie Mark system
Added some creatures
Changed some combat values here and there

Link in the main post!

Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with that. Especially since I rarely get enough of a military to be effective in the first place.

Great mod, it's working great so far, but I've noticed all of my ponies have random items as their preferred color.
As in, "really likes the color an abacus" or "the color a mystical glowing rune".
I'll play more and keep you updated on anything that strikes me as odd.

Now I'm off to found a dark fortress worthy of Sombra... he's always been the ponified Armok in my imagination.

[Sorcerer]

Yeah it's just a byproduct of how their cutie marks work, currently unavoidable unfortunately

[wagawaga]

So far I'm two years into the game, and my first aboveground fortress is looking nice. Everything runs smoothly and no bugs are in sight.
The only complaint I have is that straw looks the same brown as wood, and Dog thieves appear as a blank tile.
Oh, and apparently having horns as a built-in weapon makes unicorns extra brave. Two unicorn peasants chased and ripped a Dog thief to pieces before one of them stabbed it through the head with her horn, while every pegasus and earth pony in sight ran away in terror.

After the battle, I sort through the pieces, only to find...

What in the...

...But how?

That dog just tore away a piece of that pony's magic!
Now I've got a unicorn that shows the symptoms of light brain damage, flashing yellow and occasionally falling unconscious for brief periods.
Probably when she tries to use that part of her mind that is no longer there.

[Sorcerer]

haha, whoops, that's not supposed to be possible.. the telekinesis is supposed to basically be a bugged material that attacks pass right through, I'll have to look at that.. and also fix those diamond dogs..

[wagawaga]

I just skimmed through the raws, and I see you tagged telekinesis as [LIMB].
I think replacing it with [APERTURE] should fix the severed magic problem, while retaining its grasping abilities.
At least according to the wiki, "[APERTURE] Marks body part as an opening in the body. This body part cannot be destroyed except by destroying the part it is attached to.". Basically it would be a mouth embedded on the horn. Two, actually.

[Sorcerer]

[LIMB] is required for wrestling tho, which is the problem

[wagawaga]

Shouldn't [GRASP] already be enough? Humanoids in body_default.txt have hands marked as [GRASP] but not [LIMB]
