A word of caution when using the new Work Orders
« on: May 09, 2016, 07:51:06 pm »

Fellow Urists- I recite this tale in the hopes that it may serve as a warning to future generations:

*Ahem*

I spent an hour designing Work Orders in the second year of my Fort.
Then I had !FUN!
The end :(

Appropriately vague and ends in destruction.

10/10 would read again.

I wholeheartedly approve of both your warning of impending doom to other players and your refusing to explain precisely why/how their fortresses are going to fall apart. *Raises microcline mug*

Literally the second after I unpaused, having just finished an hour of Work Orders, !FUN! happened.  I am feeling a truly bizarre mix of fury, depression, and laughter.

Cheers mate :)  Though less a warning of impending doom, and more a warning to the obsessive compulsive.  Work Orders are freaking crack-cocoaine, and !FUN! doesn't care how much time you spent on them.

Being able to save your custom work orders may be a nice feature.
