Yes. Text gets cut off too often.

No. I dont care/like the names as they are.

Dont you have anything better to do then making such tiny adjustements?

[evictedSaint]

The problem with that is the overall item quality.  You could have 10 masterwork crafts, pack them, and upon unpacking they'd be standard quality. 

Also, if you packed them into boxes, the storehouse would immediately unpackage them. 

[Tierre]

Well you can make those boxes to be only packable, without option to unpack. I think all 10 crafts can determine your box value, so that's not a problem.

No, he's right. Cant be done, without using a container, which defeats the purpose, because it does not reduce the amount of crafts.

[Tierre]

Make them special trade good - say Craft Bundle TM. It takes 25 crafts and become this one product (very expensive) and CAN'T be unpacked. Only use for this - sell to the trader. This helps FPS. I think overall quality of crafts determine price of end bundle, but am not sure. Can be an option for reducing clutter. But there should be NO option to unpack them. Also it will show in tradegoods of a caravan from time to time and can't be helped... Maybe you can find a use for this in soem of furniture (say decorate furniture with those things to make it very expensive and good for nobles).

Would it be possible to:

Organize the menus better
 - More nested menus rather than very long lists

 - If possible have a particular object linked to a given key no matter on what menu you find it. So a bed is always linked to key "b" whether you are making it in the carpenter, the bone carver or wherever.

Make floor tiles from more things: Basically turn a bar, block or raw material into 3-5 floor tiles for use in roofing/flooring.

[Tierre]

nested menus - impossible? only Toady can do.
key - only Toady can do also can't change keys for anything except workshops and furnaces
Floor tiles - you an do a lot form planks, but blocks are already abundant enough. Make bricks - you can make them of any color you want.

[Putnam]

Nested menus are impossible, yes.

You also can't change keys for any hardcoded reactions, which includes everything in the carpenter, bonecarver etc.

[Tierre]

"nested menus - impossible? only Toady can do." oh that ? was actually a comma on Russian keyboard:( I sometimes forget that comma in English is on our letter Б

[Blightedmarsh]

What about a demonic civilization?

One that:

reproduces by turning captives into daemons
Drinks magma and eats souls
Ready access to magic but little in the way of range weapons
Is killed when exposed to water
Has daemonic pets
Only gets magma forges

[Putnam]

1. not in worldgen or in any way that isn't playable
2. no
3. a bit
4. no, unless they're so cold they freeze it on contact
5. ok
6. no

[Meph]

4. no, unless they're so cold they freeze it on contact

That works, you use a self-kill interaction that only triggers if the user stands in water.

[Putnam]

Right, forgot about location hints.

We can pray for gems at the altar of armok.  I've never seen tears of armok or blood of armok come out of this?  Would it be possible to get an extremely extremely slim chance of these gem spawning?  I know it takes on average 30 prayers to get a successful item spawn.  Maybe there could be a 1% chance of each of those gem types so it takes 3000 prayers to maybe, maybe get one.  Would just be nice to see once in a while for those unlucky embarks where you barely run into any or have used up all of them in old forts and still want to build magma mega projects.  Or the desperate tantruming glacial fort that had to seal off the wells going to the caverns because it's infected with horrible forgotten beast blood and you need water because your legendary sword dwarf has gone berserk in the food store and had to be locked in.

Of course they may already spawn and at such a low rate I've just never seen them.

[Meph]

I cant make it rare then 1%. If you pray 100 times, thats 1. So if I make a "Pray for Armoks Gems" reaction, 1% tear of armok, 1% bone of armok. 1% blood of armok and 1% breath of armok (the four gems) , its already 4%, so 25 times to get one.

I might redo the Altar though, it might have a good place in there. But if you are truly looking for those gems, you can buy them in Teduks Fine Goods, for a lot of Gold.

[Etherdrinker]

That why I suggest to every people pick an Iron with Gold embarks. For Steel and they can buy every other things with Gold at traders.

Also, donīt forgot pick 1 trade license if you want to rush and specific store.

Remember guys, there is an IRC were you can ask for anything for Masterwork.
