hey i have a neat suggestion- i think that if you tame a animal via the nature shrine , u should instantly get some general familairity of said animal so you dont have it for as long as it doesent revert too semi-wild then fully wild state.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

Wrong place, bad English, can't understand the suggestion.

What are you trying to say? You get familiar with the animal until it is wild? You get familiar so it doesn't get wild?

[sisso]

You get familiar so it doesn't get wild?

I understand this one.

I still don't get it, and I've even fixed the English!

"I have an idea. If you use the nature shrine to tame an animal, you should get familiar with the species of the animal..." Yes, I agree. Except taming an animal makes it and its offspring tame forever. Do you mean train?

"so you don't have it for as long as it doesn't revert to  the semi-wild then fully wild state."

I'm lost again. You don't have the animal, as long as it's not wild? Dafuq?

I understand this one.

Is that... a euphemism for something? Innuendo? I guess "familiarity" could imply something sexual, but I'm a little lost.

I think he's talking about leaving the shrine on repeat and thus not noticing when he snatches something out of the wild; because at that point, you've got a semi-wild animal that hasn't been assigned a trainer and it's steadily getting closer to your fortress' meeting areas when suddenly it reverts to being wild and you get nothing- or worse, it got close enough to your war-animals that they attack it and lower you nature score. Having a higher "knowledge" (general familiarity) stat on the species would help that situation, because you'd have more time to notice and give it training before it reverted. Though frankly, that could be avoided altogether by paying more attention to your Alerts screen, because IIRC it lets you know when you've lured something to the Gnome side of the Force.

Ah, I see.

sorry, i forgot i posted this a while ago. a problem i was having is that , id get animals via the recruit animals from animal shrine, then id have too like, wait while they are in cages for them too become wild then re-train them , rinse repeat till i get some general knowledge of the animal. if we got general knowledge of any animal we tamed via the natural shrine immediatly after we tamed it, it would make it more usable and convenient

I miss the gnomes! Any chance they will be brought over to the new revision???

Send a PM to IndigoFenix, he is their author.

I removed them for now, because most features were not working, due to heavy reliance on dfhack scripts that dont work with the new version.

[milo christiansen]

I did make a new version of most of the powered workshop stuff for IndigoFenix quite a while ago, but he never did anything with them (they should still work with only minor changes).

If anyone is interested the last version I made is over here.

[IndigoFenix]

If that still works, I'll see about rebuilding the raws.  Just as long as it's something I can do with minimal fort mode testing.

i would really enjoy seeing the gnomes back (btw are the warloks still on the mod? i havent found any)

Just adding my voice to the "we'd like to see the gnomes again" chouire.

One of my favorite things with the goblins was their reliance on DF machinery in a way that no other race does. Sure, dorfs could still use some nifty trap-rooms, but a solid hammer to the face tends to be more than enough to calm any invader down. I remember building this huge pumpstack as the gnomes, pumping water up to hill from the caverns, using it to feed our drowning chamber. As the water reached the roof, we'd open floodgates on the sides, releasing our clockwork sharks upon the enemy, who were less likely to be able to fight back while submerged. Good times...

I also understand that it's a lot of work creating mods like this one! Great work so far anyway, I'll remember the gnomes as the homocidal little bastards that they are

i always used the drilling rig to bring up liquids. its why i love gnomes- u can have lava without the labor of having to build a pump stack. id love them in 43.05, but it would be quite a hard task.

also, a bit offtopic, but i have been having a bug with gnomes: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=160585.0
