The Third Cavern is more than 80 z-levels
« on: June 16, 2014, 08:25:58 am »
A miner dug through the ceiling of the third cavern, and at first, you even cannot see the bottom. It is a massive emptiness. Only rock walls and thin air. And I dropped a kitten into it. It turned out the cavern does have a floor. And it is level -5.

So the magma is likely to be even deeper, and most of the fort is above +120. Seems that it is time to start a tree farm.

wow EIGHTY? that's pretty cool... build a suspended (if not treehouse, cavehouse?) fortress in it! (assuming it has the kind of random pillars caverns usually do)

I am quite looking forward to the next 20 or 30 years or so of developmental madness

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.

This thread is why I love dwarf fortress. We start at engravings of wagons and end up using necromancy to raise them from the dead, and were-wagons.

I jumped off a ramp in a cave and exploded.

I'm still figuring out how to upload a seed...

When I used road-dar to detect, it seems that quite a portion of the bottom is merged in water.

If it isn't already filled with water at the bottom, do so and make it into a bitchin' dwarven diving board.

1. Legends mode
2. "Export Map/Gen Information" ("p" key)
3. Go to your DF folder and search for a "regionX-world_gen_param.txt" (X - is a number of your region)
4. Post it here
5. ？？？？？
6. !!SCIENCE!!

Intelligent is a strong word to use around DF.

you're lucky it wasn't an adventurer.  I've heard they can bash your skull in by throwing water at you.  UNDERWATER
