Ahh, those nasty things eating my silkmoths, yeah .

Also it's not necesary to start in wooded area, it's just easier. You can always set up a "subterranean tree farm", scrap piles will start appear here and there too.

I personally think of it as of an easy to explain effect: stuff which was not noticed becomes obvious, like many legs or an occasional cave in revealing that there was a stash or something under a rock or a layer of soil.

How can I identify someone infected with "the thing"? Is it like in df where they are pale, "looks like they are x years old" a.s.o.

Im asking because identifying a vampire can be pretty though in df even knowing the traits they usually possess. Here I have no idea what to look for.

also they tend to keep items of their kills so if they end up wearing LOADS OF HUMAN GEAR then take note that person might be a thing or a legendary person.
it's like a sea of bland boring forgettable people.

oh so I take it this wastelander was infected with Manliness and live with it.
ps: has a infected Tooth amulet which I guess is either A) Umbra killed an infected and not infected, or B) killed someone but used one of it's infecting attacks(or all attacks causes infection) and just murdered one of it's own.

It's a typo, thank you. I fixed that.

Oh - last adventurer I made was a Ghoul and apparently he/she never had to eat. I know their motabolism is pretty much screwed, but not THAT much.
Also, you know when you have a quest dialogue that goes along the lines of "he did X to Y!", well mine was:
"He took the tame Red Dog!"
"Anus McUnhappyFarmerGhoulGuy calms down." (and that's A-noose; my FO PnP ghoul character btw)
When I went to kill the dreaded beast - which was a human/shadow of the night, which are UP - nope, no red dog.
Also, is it on purpose that ALL Ghouls in Ghoul towns are Farmers and/or Herbalists?

[Mrhappyface]

So what are the treeminders like?

I will check, more profession types is easy to add, I don't remember why are there so few (maybe because I branched the entity off the DF elven entity ).

So what are the treeminders like?

Oh, yeah, I should get on adding them soon. They will be like elves, with a tree quota, and wooden armor (but real guns).

I know it's probably been asked several times before, but I don't want to have to go through the whole topic to find the answer.  I'm new to the mod, so I have to ask, what would be a good place for a beginner to embark in the "Real World" map, and what skills and items should I embark with?

[Aseaheru]

I found a person  who's kind succumbs to the smallest illness who never gets sick... but this was in the version that i can still get at (dabm you .rar file readers!)

[Bodyless]

My bronze and iron boots and gauntlets are degrading incedibly fast!
I didnt know armor would degrade at all. But this was its almost impossible to keep my military armored.
I ddint try any other materials yet, but the boots and gauntlets i made were gone or at XX after a few months of use with no combat.

[Mrhappyface]

I can't imagine how scary the megabeasts will be thanks to Toady's simultaneous attack option!

[Aseaheru]

Now i want to play as one...

The "Real World" is just a shape for continents, stuff changes around. Make sure there're all groups present. It's only fun if you want to adventure around here and there. Fortress mode right now is just one site, so it's more important to get all enemies/allies present than anything.

Also read "Game tips" in the first post, there's quite an info.

Are you fighting caustic geckos and there're pools of acid here and there? Or some acidic animals like xenomorphs? Only strong acid can cause it.

Read it.  Aside from embarking with a robot, it has no tips on a good embark profile.

I go 2 miners, 1 doc, 2 woodcutters, a trapper and a mason. the trapper is the mechanic.
