Yes, it disappears. After a while.

And no, I don't think we have an obsidian _layer_, just what's around the magma pipe.

Currently I have some 25-30 FPS, which is just and just playable. Before my little fact-finding project I had 60-70 FPS. (I have a mid-range computer btw)

I'm pissed off about this. It would be entirely reasonable to disregard my save, but then my awesome metal processing plant would go to waste. And I've prettied up the place and made a huge pile of meals and booze.
Aldaris, as the next player it's your call. Maybe download both saves before you make up your mind? (Of course, you could just turn temp off and be done with it)

EDIT:
Hey, the stone just vanished.
Hm. The FPS is still down. I guess it's the heat flow that's slowing it down. Oh well, guess that means it wasn't my fault :P
Anyway, turning the temp off solves the FPS problem with the save. Uploading now.

EDIT EDIT: And late too.
Well, to make up for it I made some Mspaint art.



EDIT EDIT EDIT: Holy shit. I've been complaining about nothing. The U offers hosting services.
The save (of Doooom)

looks like draining the pool worked better than I thought; if someone were to bust in there with even the pathetic current military they should be able to take out the two remaining zombies pretty easy and finally free up the main entrance

Oh, is he the one wearing rags?

Oh and nil: Yeah the zombies look easy enough to take care of now. Just couldn't be arsed. I assume all the bolts littered around are from the previous rulers' attempts at shooting them while they were submerged?

Okay, downloaded the save, I'm used to playing at 20 fps anyway, And I'm getting a stable 40.

I'll now take a look at the fort, I wonder if I'll emerge running and screaming...

EDIT: What idiot organized this military? Everything's in one squad and they all have different weapons. Switching over to swords and crossbows...

EDIT: And could somebody explain to me why there are catapult parts littered all over the damn place?

How's the FPS?
And don't point that military at me, I had nothing to do with it.

Question: Can marksdwarfs shoot through horizontal bars/grates?
Also: Nankh, you forgot to link up the undercity bridge/door/thing to its lever.

Success! The overfortress is buzzing with activity, construction, stone blockification, and vomit. Oh armok, the vomit.
And nobody died yet!
EDIT:
DAMMIT.
For some extremely weird reason, most of the sparkgear DF folder (Everything that isn't Data/save/current/art_image-9.dat or gamelog.txt) sceased to exist halfway through playing, and I hadn't saved yet. Restarting in an hour or so.

Erm, no, actually. I was messing with the folder that contained the sparkgear version of DF, as I was moving all my different versions of the game into 1 folder. (40d, 40d9, 40d11, sparkgear, the newest 2d version, etc.) I must have pressed a wrong key combination.
