It looks like i could mine amazing amounts of adamantine withouth disturbing the demons in the pit. But I don't quite know how the "You digged too deep. . ." thing works. If i mine 100 pieces of adamantine, do I have a 100% chance to lose my Fortress? Ant with some badluck it can even be over after 1 piece?
Is there a way to disable this trigger?

The "digging too deep" trigger only applies to the 2d version. In the current version, or any other version since 3d was implemented, you can mine adamantine all you want, your fortress will not be unavoidably destroyed.

great!
Someone should update the wiki site
http://archive.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Adamantine

thx for this giving me this relief

[Iroel]

Uh, not trying to be rude or anything, but you did notice the Archive part of that link, right? That means it's not the wiki for this version >_>

[Zaibusa]

ahm, no i didn't 
thx anyway

[zchris13]

I did that too.  Utterly hilarious.

The "Too deep" system looked like a fun thing in term of "story", so bad it end so funnily.

Except when he actually does dig too deep and demons pour out destroying his fortress. Ever since the 3D version, you don't instantly lose when that happens. If you survive, you can mine all the adamantine you want!

Does adamantine only appears in specific biomes ?

[Demonic Gophers]

Adamantine is only found in mountains.

To the modding section!

Wait a second, Adamantine is found only in mountains? I don't suppose its found with mountains containing both magma and chasms, does it?

[FoboslC]

Why you can. I once had a fortress with chasm, unerground river, flux, and magma pipe.
Found HFS in 15 years.
You can find it, so.

[Faces of Mu]

Go to your init file and enable 'other features' and such to be shown on the fortress location screen.

Then I shall not have Adamantine for a long, long time. Maybe I will try to find it when I have mastered every other aspect of this game.
