CHALLENGE: fill a container with blood.
« on: April 30, 2020, 10:29:04 am »
Hi all! I've given myzelf this crazy fortress-mode challenge, but I can't figure out how to do it. Maybe you can!
Can you fill some container, barrel, minecart with dwarven blood or blood of other animals? And then so much, when its spilled it shows the 1/7 (or more) level indicator?

Screw pump and stop behind it with a minecart? It should pick even 1/7. However will it pump into minecart or just move the 1/7 of this fluid to minecarts/stop tile?

No. The only fluids DF recognize as such are water and magma. You can buy barrels of blood (and venom, ichor, etc.) from caravans, but if you manage to empty them (requires some tricks, I believe) you'll just get a contaminant, not a pool (Search for how to use gnomeblight). So you can "win" the challenge by buying a barrel full of it, but that's the end of it.
