Can animated corpses gain 'muscle'? 'Cuz that is just NASTY.

They have NO_PHYS_ATT_GAIN but the tag seems broken (at least for player vampires,) so maybe.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they do. I dropped one animated dog skeleton on top of 20 live dogs. Result: 20 dead dogs and one incredibly gigantic and muscular animated dog skeleton.

Apparently they also get a strength boost (and the muscle growth that comes with it) upon animation.

Code: [Select]

[CE_PHYS_ATT_CHANGE:STRENGTH:300:1000:TOUGHNESS:300:1000:START:0]This means an increase of 300% + 1000 in strength and toughness, assuming the wiki is correct about the second parameter. Vampires only get a 200% boost. It is terrifying.

So, in Duopoly DF 0.40.24 I embarked with a fortress for a dead civilization (one with no sites).

I just tried to do the same thing again for Olympus: Dawn of the New Gods and it didn't work.

Any ideas why?

In impulse elevators, why the down channel behind each track ramp? Wouldn't you just need a wall there? Why not a 2x2 spiral with each ramp a t-junct toward two walls and a track up to the next ramp? Is there something I'm not getting?

how are civs determined to be neighbors of eachother? can any cross water? mountains?

Water, no. Mountains, yes (I think).

I know the water thing, because you can change the neighbour behaviour of a world tile by making a fortress embark that spans across an ocean gap. You don't need to build an actual bridge, it counts if you just embark then immediately retire.

[Uzu Bash]

If I embark on a trade route, will merchants pass through? If I embark between two nations at war, will military pass through?

They can cross water, even implausibly long fathoms of water, as long as there's a land connection somewhere between both points. If there's no land connection, then even 1 tile of ocean will isolate them.

Mountains, yes (I think).

It seems like Dwarf sites in isolated mountain valleys are left alone by goblins, but I might be wrong.

This is a long shot, but is there any way to prevent temperate/cold forests from being called "Jungles" in the name generation? It seems like more often than not, forests on the border of tundra bear the name "Jungle" which seems odd to me.

Remove "Jungle" as an option somewhere down in the Name Generator.

I guess there are only two names for NAME_FOREST: JUNGLE or FOREST, so that would make all forests named FOREST. That's too bad, there are a few synonyms I could think of (THICKET, GROVE, WOODS), but they don't all sound right for tropical biome.

I also noticed NAME_HILL has only one value: HILL. I could see adding some synonyms like BLUFF, KNOLL, MOUND, BUTTE

Who keeps stealing all my empty bags?! I have 18 in stock, I don't see a single one full, but none are available for any job that requires them. I keep producing them from the precious little leather I've gotten, but I can't locate any of them. The only stockpiles that accept bags are empty.

I know I've had this problem before, and I'm not the only one, but I can't find the answer.

Seed storage? processed food?

Seeds. I dumped all the bags and found them full of I can't believe how many seeds. So I dumped the seeds and reclaimed the bags, gave all the bag-only stockpiles time to replenish, then reclaimed the seeds that have dedicated stockpiles. Maybe they'll consolidate these a little smarter.

What do I do with this damn much alfalfa? No one but the horses eat this much, if only I could switch them off grazing and let them have it.  I can't make booze out of it, so maybe I'll just offload it all on the elves.

[Badger Storm]

What does increasing the number of "beasts" on worldgen do, exactly?  Is it for (semi)megabeasts, titans, forgotten beasts, or large regular animals?
