Of course it'll be ASCII multi-colored lighting. However that works.

Well I can safely state that it will require much more time to mod the game. [Take a look at the new creature raws for example...] Harder? I don't think so...as for the release date....who knows...let's hope that it's gonna be released in august-september at latest.

Toady places a bunch of Shortcuts in his codes.

If you look at the RAWs you will often see that Wolves, Bears, Tigers, Humans, Monkeys, Apes and such as almost EXACTLY THE SAME!!!

Yes if you want to make a Ent whos moss, leaves, bark, and moss as seperate bodyparts it will take longer.

So the answer is: Yes AND No

[Sean Mirrsen]

If I make Modbase compatible with it, the answer will be "Yes, No, and MAYBE".

It's amazing the number of creatures that happen to have four limbs, two eyes, two ears, one nose, one spine, and some other miscillany. Just amazing, really. If only there was a creature with two spines, like in real life. Then he wouldn't be lazy.  :P

[umiman]

Hehe, nice one. Though I understand his point. It would be nice if there was more to them but the way the next version is coming up, we may have our wish. If anything, at least they'd have different skin colours and fur.

I don't care how it works. It'll be a trip and a half.

am I the only one concerned that these underground layers will mess a bit too much with building a fortress ?

they seem rather exsessive

[Pure_W]

AFAIK You can tweek them in the worldgen param.s

Also, is that one site or the whole world?

If the world, is this some new smaller than pocket world?

If site, everythings a bit big!

Toady pointed out in the other wall-o-answers that underground cavern sizes will be smaller and more broken up all around than the examples, and the size prevalency will be controllable in the init like other features.

[Neonivek]

I personally like them huge as it gives a real possibility of something being down there like cities.

Heck I wouldn't mind them even larger, say... the size of a country.

Hehe, reminds me of D'ni.

*wonders how long before Linking Books can be modded in*
