[Ivan Issaccs]

Are meat cleavers meant to be considered weapons? Right now their only use is being a massively valuable trade good.

[PTTG??]

I've made it much, much harder to farm! Will upload in a moment.

P.S.: You're still using the crappy "earth" map. I'll make a new copy of the North America map for the latest version... it only seems appropriate.

PTTG's Mutation for Deon's 1.7: Seasonal Crops

This decreases yields and makes growing plants take much longer. Summer and spring will be devoted to planting and growing crops, and autumn to harvest- for the most part; some plants are odd. Underground plants have worse returns in general, but overground plants require claiming safe surface farming regions.

- Robot plasma bolts are no longer stored in stockpiles, they evaporate on landing.

I still have plasma bolts.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Unless of course vault citizens can bring plasma bolts along with thier arrival or you can get it directly from scavenging in the scrapyard. If so though, why is it on the food stockpile?

[Deon]

o_O

That is infuriating. I tested it extensively and saw them poofing into clouds of "plasma". Apparently DF sometimes ignores temperature settings for whatever reason and keeps them...

Do they still explode in stockpile?

[Findulidas]

Do they still explode in stockpile?

I just realized something and tested.

They do disappear on reload of the save, no explosions. Like you said df sometimes ignore the settings. Just like the times when dwarves on fire from magma dont suffer from it until you reload the save, then they die horribly and quickly.

[Deon]

Good, at least they don't explode anymore. They should also disappear during season changes randomly, I guess I can live with it for now.

Also in the current df version they should melt from magma. In vanilla flesh only burns, but does not melt or boil. I fixed that.

P.S. I will try to remove DO_NOT_CLEAN_GLOB, maybe dwarves will clean these instead of trying to stockpile them.

[Lycaeon]

I suffered the exact same series of events when implementing lasers and plasma bolts for Fallout:Equestria (Including the infuriation ). Removing DO_NOT_CLEAN_GLOB won't work as your citizens then spam you with interruptions of not being able to clean the glob as it evaporates after being fired. So far the best (That is, least annoying) solution is to turn off fat in the general food stockpiles, so the globs will be ignored if they fail to evaporate. This also stops animal fat from being stockpiled, but that's a minor problem as you can make custom fat stockpiles that only take from the butcher's workshop.

[Terry Lennox]

I have a question regarding skills.  Do rifles, shotguns and antimaterial rifles use the crossbow skill or the misc. object skill?

[Deon]

They use the "gunner" skill which is a renamed bow skill.

I will put up a new version with some amazing functionality additions soon.

Wow!

[Mrhappyface]

Hey Deon, got a question. Some of my militia got a bit beat up after a supermutant ambush. Is there any easy way to specifically feed specific guys cyro capsules?

[Asra]

Hey Deon, do things like having a sixth toe or being albino have any mechanical effects?

[Deon]

Some of them are just for flavor, some have really good advantages. And of course bullies are better at hard work and combat, and bright minds are better with more complex activities and social skills. There's also a caste which is prone to diseases, and one disease immune caste (strange blood type). And a rare caste of a "super" variant of a human, who may excel at everything.

It's more or less like DF Genesis dwarven castes, toned down.

Build a cryo module near his bed, make sure there's nobody else in the room, tell someone to "put in cryo sleep" and lock the door so they don't leave.
It works like that: the operator uses the module, then looks around and if he sees another vault citizen, he turns him into a cryo pod. It may take a while, that's why I make inidividual patient rooms with lockable doors.
