Check dev_now! Toady's put in the ability to make multiple constructions in a rectangle! This update just keeps looking better and better!

Heh I think you may be right... kills a couple AHK scripts I made for my own use as well.. not that I'm bitter about it, the way Toady made it works much better :D

I think I may just cry a little bit, in pure and unadulterated joy..

I actually shed a tear out of enjoyment on this one. I thought the update won't get any better and BANG! I was proven wrong.

That's happened at least twice now...  Third time is going to be when it's released.

Sometimes I think Toady loves to keep us in the dark, even on dev_now, about what he's thinking of or going to implement if he has time. It's a very nice way to be surprised.

Three cheers for rectangle floorbuilding! I'll start!

HIP HIP! HOORAY!

While I do think this is an awesome feature, sometimes I like to sit back at moments like this and realise what exactly we're cheering over.

Rectangles.

OK... now my dwarves will conquer the world above at last!

I have always admired people who tried to build elaborate walls, towers, monuments, surface storage facilities, and such... I'm trying to do something like this in my parthenon, but it goes very slowly because of my lack of patience.

Not quite, the pattern tool could still be quite useful...

Nonetheless some of us aren't too clear on how to get DFWall to work with custom graphics and don't want to develop an acute medical condition while trying to build up a castle or tower, so damn is this a welcome change.  ;D
