Better yet, it can be the natural extension of Jools' incomplete weather system! XDDD

[Kazindir]

Leaving ruins behind is always a good thing!
Now not only can I insist they're haunted and cursed, I can haunt them myself.

[Christes]

Ugh. Try as I might, I can't seem to manage an FPS over 10.

Sorry folks, but I don't have the time to play through a year at that rate

It looks like the fortress will have to pass into the hands of someone with a more suitable system.  I'd appreciate it if someone named a dwarf after me though.

[Kazindir]

I'll pick this up tomorrow then.

Jsut to be sure, is the most recent save really Jools' one, from page 30? 

[Jools]

Looks like it. We seem to have had a run of bad luck.

If this proves slow and unusable to *everyone*, I could pick it up briefly and implement some FPS-boosting measures to try and make the fortress more usable.

[Kazindir]

I'll see what the speed is like tonight but the first things that came to mind were:

1) Walling off the lower mines. I think they're mostly a bit deserted now and I think this will speed things up a little due to a lot fewer possible pathfinding routes?

2) Offering eleventybillion tonnes of food to the first merchants to come along, failing that, building a big bridge over half the stockpiles and vapourising everything.

I don't mind lag but it should be lag caused by implausible building projects!


/edit My attempt to get something done last night was foiled by the forums being down.

It seems that jools and I have secretly and accidentally conspired to cease all work on the fortress.
Which is funny, because the in-game dwarves (or at least the way I wrote it  )
hate each other.

[Kazindir]

Sorry about this, I've been completely unable to get through to the forums to grab the save from home - I've just been getting assorted time out, sql and "down for maintenance" errors.

It seems to work from work now though (obviously :p ) so with luck it's recovered and I can get stuck in over the next few days.

[Maggarg - Eater of chicke]

Any joy?
Actually, considering what I inflicted on the army last time, any misery.

[Maggarg - Eater of chicke]

Hate to double post, but it's been nearly a week.
I seem to be doing this far too much ;_;

[Keldor]

Where DID Kazindir go?  I hope the carp didn't eat him...

[Kazindir]

Carp? No, it'll take more than carp to stop the likes of me! The mine flood slowed me down somewhat however as the plans got all soggy. The moat is looking a lot better now though, surrounded by proper dwarven stonework instead of the disgusting mud of yesteryear.

(I've not disappeared! I do however need to take a hour or two to put my notes into a sensible order...)

mine flood...
MINE FLOOD...

agfhafafkashgda *eats beard*

[Jools]

I am looking forward to seeing the map for all this.

Wait - mine flood? But what about the uncountable tons of ore, gems and rock down there? I had grandiose building plans, goddammit!

[Maggarg - Eater of chicke]

Mwff...
*removes beard*
I hope none of the miners died.
I also hope my little burrow is ok.
