It's raining...what?
« on: January 01, 2013, 09:38:06 am »
It just rained dwarven beer in my evil biome fortress. Should I be concerned or happy about it?

(Also, I just registered to this forum after a few months of lurking.)

Shame you can't build a giant rain dish and collect it for your dwarves to drink.

What I think we're saying is we need dwarves to riot and break things more often.

See if you can drain a murky pool, then see if it fills with beer. Then use the beer pool to train your dwarfs to swim.

There's safe. Then there's unsafe. And then there's the average dwarf fort, which remains unrated because the OSHA inspector flatly refused to go anywhere within a dozen miles of the place.

Are you sure it's not Dwarven blood? Evil regions are meant to rain icky things.

No, it's definitely beer when I loo[k] at it. It does cause unhappy thoughts on my dwarves, though.

Couldn't he just channel a pool manually?

Connect all the ponds on the surface and funnel them into one master beer chamber. Or conversely, BEER MIST GENERATOR.

If you play with a mod, you should mention it in your posts.

Urist has been unhappy lately, he was comforted by a waterfall lately, he was unable to drink from the beer waterfall lately.

Yeah, I don't think this is possible with vanilla DF.  It normally only rains some variation of blood or syndrome causing random muck.  Beer sounds like a fine addition for a mod though.

Too bad there's no way to put it in barrels.  I wonder if dwarves will drink booze in a murky pool like they will water, if desperate?

Probably alcohol-free Dwarven Kaliber :).

I would still think they would get an unhappy thought since its still muddy.
