The new nobility is actually pretty interesting assuming the ones I was looking at are still alive. There's a lot of nepotism going on in all roles except the general, and I seem to recall the queen's immediate family getting attacked by several night trolls.

[Gwolfski]

update. I just got a mood!, yes as in Gwolfski, escapist.!

[Gwolfski]

THE GREAT UPDATE

Notable happenings

1. The goblin siege. T'was quite a large siege, over a unit page of goblins and trolls, in a 1troll:1goblin ratio. Nevertheles, the stout military took care of them quickly.

2. Water reactors. Two new water reactors have been constructed, with  minor accidents(flooding). Jumpstarting thme will be tricky, but they should provide enough power. Documention:1st reactor

Hey, don't go accusing my family of Nepotism! Or I'll complain about you to my grandmother and get you executed! XD

[Taupe]

Alright. Dumbestdorf is next and has been messaged.

[Zuglarkun]

DUDE. Make sure to uninstall your graphics pack BEFORE you upload and send the save. This is NOT acceptable.
Save in ASCII with graphics pack removed HERE.

"Fellow overseers, can we invalidate turns due to sheer incompetence?"

"I take that that means no?"


Compilation of moments where I facepalmed

- So I made this nice walled off area for the forges where all you have to do is floor over the magma and install the forges afterwards, but you went ahead and dug yourself ANOTHER forge area right next to it, right BESIDE the magma drainage pipe that has been labelled as such.
- Playing the "what does this unlabelled lever do?" game while trying to diddle and fiddle my way into making the water reactor work properly. Then looking at the references in your post and diddling about with the levers again. Then giving up utterly in exasperation.
- Looking at the trade depot and wondering why you went ahead and bought a bunch of unusable wooden arrows.
- Wondering why you deconstructed the NE bridges instead of pulling the lever to retract them instead.

I get the feeling that folks here just went, "Yeah fuck this crazy place, I'm gonna build my own private bunker for when the inevitable magma purge happens."

[Taupe]

I don't really mind if the next player want to revert back to the previous save. It's not like there have been that many turns of event in the last turn, since it's still in summer...

Well...

That's like the tenth succession game in which you begin by building a water engine and then give up on the save because water makes your fps drop to two.

No unexpected turns of event, that is.

[Sarrak]

Well... Personally, I'd go for a revert. No offence, but I really don't know answer to one question: "Why?". It's not like we're bunch of tyrannical chronical murderers that take grave insult from the passed turns.

[Gwolfski]

im sorry about the tileset, i was in a rush. And i do think i have labeled the levers clearly. and look, even with notes, it IS difficult to find the right levers, and it WAs an emergency! I mean trolls were getting in!

and fps was at 2 when i opened the save, so I only did 1/4.

pls dont revert.

[Zuglarkun]

I'll like to make it clear I meant that revert thing as a joke.
(Then why bring it up in the first place? Shhh!!! Quiet down!)

I appreciate the effort to try to play your turn, and at least you didn't hack stuff or make things unplayable, so things are not irreversibly bad at all. They may be poor decisions, but they didn't break any rules as far as I am aware of. That said, I don't wanna be an ass since my brain says there's really no reason to revert, but my cold black heart kinds of pulls me in the other direction

So, with great irresponsibility I'll leave the decision to revert or not to the next player in line to decide since suddenly we're all self-entitled monsters now

EDIT: In retrospect, the low FPS you experienced likely isn't from the flowing water but instead pathing lag caused by a breach in the caverns.

Also, I seemed to have forgotten to turn off the restriction of having only obsidian stone be used in the stone menu, so whomever is picking up the save next might want to adjust that to their preferences. Would just like to note that we are short on magma safe rock though we are expecting a shipment of those in autumn.

[Gwolfski]

fps sortoff bumped up 1-2 when the magma moat settled a bit.

[Zuglarkun]

Hmmm... I dunno really. I was getting passable FPS in the 20's range though I'm playing DF on a banged up 6+ year old laptop.

[Triaxx2]

Magma-safe stone is largely a non issue. We have the capability of making glass, which is automatically magma-safe and unlimited by anything other than production capacity.

Mechanisms? That said, obsidianizers are always an option...

[Vuohijumala]

Well, I tested the save and my FPS was around 12, which isn't so bad actually considering how the caverns are so filled with corpses. But I do fear it'll be much worse by the time my turn comes..
