Future of the Fortress is now in FINAL.  Huzzah for downward staircases!

[Bacu]

Lets hope that toady finishes up within the week.

Though we all know what happened last time we got optimistic.

I love it when things gettin green

[CobaltKobold]

Six to green out, at 1.8 per or so, means ten days or so.

JUST missing January. Time for the February guys to celebrate?

I vote the 13th / 14th.

Couples nights out all over the land will be ruined.

2: "No dear, I just want to go home so I can sit in front of the computer for 12 hours straight figuring out the new release of Dwarf Fortress ... "

1: " .... "

exuent 1

[CobaltKobold]

Exeunt is the plural form, as I understand it. Exit 1 would be better.

Thanks ... I thought I had spelt it wrong.

Never really paid attention during Shakespeare anyway ... was banking on everyone else being as ignorant as me ...

Building stairs downwards is something I've been wanting to do for quite some time now (Since the last fortress I built on a beach, or rather on the level above and further out to sea), didn't think it'd be added just like that. Looking forward to playing around with it.

And so it begins. The final stretch.

I can taste the update now...

[Minstrel]

I wonder if this thread will make it to 800 pages before the update.

I dunno about being able to build stairs going down into open space - I'd have preferred a new building called "rope" that functions identically to up/down stairs and you can build downward. I have a feeling that the name with break the illusion somewhat for me (i just can't imagine how it could possibly be done... except for maybe a kinda screw shape, that comes down from the ceiling to form a spiral staircase...

Is that a challenge?

Have you never actually seen a rope ladder? It's two ropes and a bunch of wooden slats or rope rungs.

Have a look here.
