Gah! Volcanos!
« on: October 30, 2007, 04:39:00 pm »
I've generated 3 worlds now, and none of them have a volcano tile in a playable spot.

Can someone upload a world where there's at least one playable volcano in the world?

There's usually several magma vents in the tiles in the vicinity of a volcano too, you don't need to start on the volcano itself.

I started next to a caldera. Imps and Firemen swarmed out and slaughtered my dwarves, my cats, and my dogs. It was a very brief expedition... we did manage to build a couple staircases, though.  :p

I was lucky enough to have a minimum sized starting area with the corner of a stream, and a magma pipe covered in a single layer of dirt on the top. I dug a single 1x1 channel hole down so I could see the entire pipe size without 'letting out' all of the nasties inside, and am building my fortress around it as I am able (Ive been rather ill lately so resting a lot)
