I was wondering why my FPS took a nose dive...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My dwarf in the middle of the swamp was on his way to pull the level one z-level up that turns off the pump. He very nearly drowned.

Was just following a suggestion to just cavein a warehouse off the side of a place... Set up a support and lever and all, standard procedure, dug a hallway to get to it... When I got the notification of the collapse, I see a pair of crushed bodies in the area... Apparently two haulers decided to bring over stone from the hallway I dug to the nearby soon to be collapsed warehouse just as it goes down...

I...  This was the name of the group's symbol.  Proof that DF has a strange sense of... irony?

Why in Armok's name-

P.S.  I'd upload a screenshot if I could.  Need an image hosting site that doesn't force javascript on you.

Not exactly a facepalm moment...but...well, just look at the image.

Oh dear stars above, Nefarian.  That is so much worse better.

Dammit, DF, I don't swing that way!

I use (encapsulated in my own scripts) imgur-screenshot.sh to upload images and get links without visiting the site itself. Mayb that works for you?

Nice, it works without an account!

Holy flopping lungfish, Fleeting Frames, I love you - platonically, of course.  No javascript and I can use it from the shell.  Now to get around to processing these screenshots I have sitting around...

P.S.  That script needs more exposure.  Into the signature it goes!

[Fleeting Frames]

Haha, aw thanks. Though I'm not the creator of imgur-screenshot.sh. Still, the ability to screenshot and upload in seconds is nice.

I posted the encapsulation in Any image hosts that don't use jajascript?, but you probably saw it :v (I like to give my images names and links in names).

When embarking onto a volcano, it is advisable to deal with any ghostly miners before they become perturbed, lest they knock a hole in the side of the volcano and flood half the map with magma. That, or the sand walls gave way. Which could be !fun!

Also, aquifer query - if an aquifer is within a glacier, it can't be used as a water source, right? I've a well built over 7/7 water within a glacier, but its reporting as dry.

ETA: ok, revisited an older save to check - no ghostly miners, just a volcano with at least a +/-20z fluctuating lava pool causing the !!fun!!. Didn't realise the magma level could rise that far. So, patch job on the lower slopes, with or without an outlet channel to the edge of the map. Maybe cast some ice for a breech warning and opportunistic obsidian. Still a facepalm moment, if only because I was too absorbed in laying out my bedrooms to notice the magma dripping in the main door....

*Facepalm*  I actually didn't see that thread until just now via that link.

(This facepalm may or may not be on topic.  It was a facepalm moment...)

Now what was I thinking when I decided it was a good idea to use the garbage chute leading to a magma pipe to also drain water?

See you all next year when I've finished with all this "A section of the cavern has collapsed!" spam.
