If you're running a multi-core system, go to the task manager and right click DF. Set its affinity to one core, and all of the other major processes to other cores. That should help a bit.

Also, make sure there's no pumps doing useless stuff. We all know what water can do to fps >.<

Kill the cheese-makers as well.
Dump all the elves into the magma and burn down the trees and plants.

Gee, skipped again.

I call right after Aqizzar! I told you people I was going on vacation, didn't I? Somewhere?

I've found that dumping in magma only destroys the items sometimes- other times, it leaves "ghost" items in the square that may or may not exist, but most likely do occupy a significant chunk of memory.

Best bet is to atom smash it.

In fact, destroy everything.
Then there will be no lag.

Damn you people, who's turn is it supposed to be?
If s/he doesn't want to play, just pass the turn onwards >SI

I believe that I was skipped, causing it to be Aqizzar's turn. I called going right after Aqizzar.

Any word from Aqizzar on his progress?

Hmm. Crazyness.

Also, who the hell designed that magma cannon? Is that... leaking magma back into the pumping system? EGADS. Are you trying to start a fire?


Oh hells, messed up my tabs. Wrong thread entirely.

Yeah, I'm here.  I can't do anything for another week at least.  I just kind of assumed the "next" spot since no one else was doing anything and exactly who's turn it's supposed to be is long forgotten.

I really can do something next week, but if anyone wants to take a turn anyway, go ahead.  I think it's time to lobby for a new thread or something, to just clear out the list and move forward.

Magma cannon?  I thought that was the obsidian maker...

You'd most likely be next anyway.

I don't see anything that can be mistaken for a magma cannon, and since those typically require magma-safe pumps, I don't think we'll be getting one anytime soon.

You should go now, since Aqizzar's waiting 'til next week.
