Mining Adamantine with AdvFort
« on: May 02, 2013, 03:41:06 am »

Dum di dum, traveling through the caverns, pick in hand, minecraft style... What is this?



Oh, just adamantine. I have find it many times, there is nothing interesting i can do with it...

Until now, thanks to DfHack magic. :)

I go to the spire and begin to mine:




I go deeper



I craft myself a full set of adamantine gear and breach hell. 8)



Sadly, the event doesn't fire in Adv mode  :-\

Of course, that doesn't mean mining adamantine (or mining at all, really) is safe:

In a hole in the ground there lived a dwarf. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a dwarf fortress, and that means magma.

Good to know it doesn't trigger the eerie glowing pits.

Confirmation that "the event" is tied to fortress mode and not to the FEATURE_VEIN itself. This bodes well for future sciences.

Also lol. Molten adamantine dust.
