Trapped in a Dwarf Fortress

[Mr Crabman]

Anyone trapped in Dwarf Fortress will die in real life if they die in the game. They can only escape by reaching the 100th cavern layer and defeating "the Toady One" himself.

Toads should have the ability to hypnotize.

Continents now float on top of the ocean and can drift around.  Breaching the circus now causes water to rush up from the bottomless pits and flood your fortress (sinking the entire continent if it reaches the surface.  Also, continents can now drift over the edge of the map and fall off.

Sounds like a potential Myth and Magic arc bug feature.

[King Zultan]

Breaching the circus should increase the temperature of the entire would with all the heat escaping the circus, thus leading to global warming, also any dwarf near the hole into the circus should burst into flames from the heat.

Speaking of global... the map rewrite should make the DF world a globe.  The globe rotates, and so your fort passes by as you play. You can only see what happens as it goes past, limiting your playing time. However, you become entranced as it goes by and you see the entire world - not just your fort - and sit there waiting for it to come around again.  Thus DF becomes your entire life.

This would actually be a fun game mode - keep digging to the west to keep the fort in frame!

Are you thinking of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_World ...or is it just a co-inky-dink?

[SixOfSpades]

Introduce an alternate game mode, containing only the things that Toady doesn't want in the game. Centaurs with flintlock gunpowder rifles fight over petroleum deposits, so they can build internal combustion engines & electric batteries and declare war on Heaven. Earth and water are made solely of feces & urine, and all pregnancy is the result of rape--with meticulously detailed combat logs. On the other hand, buoyancy IS implemented, and the centaurs are always in a good mood.

[Mr Crabman]

All currency is based on baby mermaid bones.

[A_Curious_Cat]

Dwarves should have the ability to massage statistics to say anything they want.

[King Zultan]

Toady should add a text to speech system into the game so we can hear our dwarves and adventures talking in real time, this feature ignores system settings and always plays at max volume, also it has no limit as to how many people can talk at a time and if multiple people are talking their voices will all overlap.

[brewer bob]

also it has no limit as to how many people can talk at a time and if multiple people are talking their voices will all overlap.

Due to budget limits, their voices are all the same one.

[Mr Crabman]

The voices speak in simlish.
