Good news, Cataclysm Dark Days ahead starts to get tile support again. This and disappointment with Simcity 2013 are pushing me more towards modding, so hear, hear, give me your suggestions and tell me what you want to see, I should work on my mods more to raise my mood .

[Meph]

I want to see power-using workshops.

[b_knight286]

I would like to see turrets, or robots that you can make yourself.  Turrets would be something that can't move on their own, but can still shoot.  When hauling animals to pasture, does the animal WALK or do the dwarfs/vault dwellers DRAG them?  Someone test if people can haul things like sponges to pastures, that's a sure way to see if turrets would work.

[Deon]

Yep, it's possible, I can just copy a securitron and stick IMMOBILE on it, and voila, a turret!

People actually DRAG creatures, a cow won't walk to its pasture if you just tell it to go there .

I want to see power-using workshops.

Was an appropriate dfhack module released? I will go look.

Currently I am waiting with anticipation for the complete version of Putnam's "syndrome on armor" module, then we will be able to have power armor which increases strength, energy shields which reduce overall damage taken etc.

[Meph]

Yep, Putnams plugin will be quite nice. Enchanted armors, cursed items, equipable flamethrowers, magic weapons that only work on specific castes... fun.

Nope. ^^

Deon...You've put me on the spot here, I'll have to have some time to think about what I want specifically in the mod...

[Putnam]

It's not a plugin, it's a script

But yeah, flamethrowers? Yes.

Specific castes??? I don't know about that. Now that you mention it, though, I should definitely get that working.

[KingofstarrySkies]

personally, I'd like to see slavers.
And a slave mechanic, as I am a dirty slaver. Also, I recently bought fallout 3 and have been playing it, and DAAAAAMN its good. Perhaps we could have a fat man?
Oh dear lord, the !!FUN!! I could have with that....
eheheheheheheheeeeeh

This aught to have the North America world map. If you're lucky, the north pole lines up with the cold side of the map and it looks really good. Plus, unlike the existing earth map, the single major continent ensures you'll always be in contact with all the other parties. (Unless you move to the peaceful paradise of Haiti. (Except for the time I had every single cannibal empire there...)) Anyway, it seems more fallout appropriate to me, too.

[Meph]

Different castes are already supported by your ... plug-in script. Simply use syn_affected_creature:dwarf:caste-id-here, instead of male/female.

[Mrhappyface]

Damn this is crazy. What build are you guys doing?
I prefer sawmill-furniture-arc furnace-gunsmith-everything else
Also Deon, that concrete factory is flippin awesome!

I added those after you mentioned it in this topic

I feel like going for the foundation first (generator, arc furance) then spreading out to the gunsmith and other things.

[Markus]

Hm. . . so we won't be domesticating various mutants for a while?

[Asra]

I don't really get Sawmill right away since I still end up making stone furniture most of the time. So for me it's usually, right now...

Arc-furnace > Biofuels > Chemistry > Gunsmithing > Everything else.

That and lots and lots of junk scavenging tend to get me enough guns for the start, so I usually just try to frame it based on the surroundings. I really dig the Concrete mixer, but I had to go through two areas to find some sand. (Nothing but Clay, even in the badlands, with my luck)
