And that is...I assume...different from the current default somehow?

And that is...I assume...different from the current default somehow?

Maybe more insane?

In the moving fortress arc, ignore weight so the player may load countless blocks of cobaltite onto a flying satellite, and use them as ammunition for orbital cave-in bombardment.

Oh wait, that's actually a great suggestion.  Hm... Allow non-player sites to retaliate with a new siege engine that launches Tomahawks.

[Magmacube_tr]

Allow other races to launch barrels filled with pregnant cats, causing catsplosions all around.

Similar to GELDABLE, a CONTAINS_CHILD tag is added to the lower body of female creatures.  Wounding this body part on a pregnant creature can cause the fetus to pop out.

Toady apparently reads at least the first post of every suggestion on this board. But that's not fair to all the people that post their suggestions in the wrong board/subforum, or aren't on Bay12 at all!

So Toady should read every post and every comment, on every forum or social media platform/website (the likes of Reddit, Youtube etc) related to DF, just in case someone makes a suggestion there.

[King Zultan]

Everything on the internet should be beamed straight into Toady's mind.

Since it's logically the fastest way to bring DF to 1.0: Toady should draw power from every mention of DF on or offline anywhere in the world until he develops godlike abilities.

This includes every word that contains "df".

My steadfast and disregardfully hardfisted grandfather is unmindful of the hundredfold decrease of goldfinches, fieldfares and wildfowl to the birdfeeder in the wildflower midfield, when he builds a windfarm and upon a deadful landfill site.

...just doing my bit.

[Magmacube_tr]

With his new godlike powers, Toady should make us dig out a dwarven fortress.

[Mobbstar]

Based on Mr. Crabman's suggestion to help modders use generated or modded materials, I propose all materials be duck-typed.  That is to say, materials can be flagged as coming from a duck.

[King Zultan]

I can't wait for my fort to be attacked by a giant duck made of pieces of various ducks!

[Magmacube_tr]

I can't wait for blob FB's made of some procedurally generated, invincible metal.

[Mr Crabman]

Since Steam apparently won't allow games with version numbers starting with 0, they should use a "countdown" from 2.0 to 1.0

For an example of what I mean, the current version 47.05 (under this new system) would be 1.52.95

That way the full official release of DF will be 1.0, as it should be, since anything else would just be confusing.

[Starver]

Steam should pseudo-randomly[1] rearrange the numeric digits, and apply this new mapping to the visible version number of every release they host. For security/authentication purposes... or something?

(Valid under the thread-title, but I haven't checked to see if it falls under the remit given in the OP. )


[1] By recursively hashing and hash-of-hashing the release name, vendor name and the formula of the particular metal-halide chosen to be assigned upon the date of registering each project, until the ordering of all required digits is uniquely obtained.
