AWESOME starting Location at last!
« on: March 09, 2009, 10:27:00 pm »
Finally! after ages of having most, but not all of the nice parts of a starting location, ive got a starting location with MAGMA!!!



Ok.. I know oyu cant SEE the magma, its, kinda well... on the other frigging side of the map... But HEY! it IS there!! And Im a long term goal kinda guy.. I can bid my time... But still! I've got a river! a nice open flat field! And the Whole fortress is going to be obsidian.. YUP! the whole location is almost all Obsidian!

Ive got a back up already in a folder to save for future reuse if I wish. 

Still, there is ONE thing that I am not yet sure.. that is exactly how many goblins are in the area... Alas I can only hope the shall assault me endlessly in massive sieges.

Ask not what the Dwarfs can do for you...
But ask.... why are they drunk all the time?

Remove the [INTELLIGENT] tag from the creatures standard raw file and replace it with [CAN_CIV] and [CAN_LEARN] and the goblins will always attack, no matter what (the way it fucking should be).

Thus ends the official written history of the fortress known as Boatmurdered. May their tortured souls rest in peace.

Not sure.. sorry.

I would think just the save folder?

Can anyone clarify the process?

Just checked, it appears to be a zipped copy of the region folder (I.E. Region3), at least, that's what most of the map files on there appear to be.

On the Wall is a Masterfully engraved carving of Urist McHardcastle and Goblins. Urist McHardcastle is surrounded by the Goblins. The Golbins are stamping on Urist McHardcastle. Urist McHardcaste is laughing at the Goblins. The carving related to the prolonged and bloody death of Urist McHardcastle in the Fall of 1659, the Winter of 1659, and the Spring of 1660. On the engraving is an image of Cheese.

Nice fortress layout. Mind MS-Paint-scribbling some info on that picture to tell us where you plan to put what?

How are you so zoomed out to take that screenshot? It'd be nice for long-term planning to be able to do that in-game.

I imagine he used the 'export local image' option under the escape menu. You can export images of every layer of your map.
