Well goddamnit, that does it.

I'm switching us over to d11. This sucks. So. Bad.

ya, I usually don't mess with the newer versions, mainly stick with tried and true stuff

that is until Toady releases the main upgrades

Hey, I'm gonna have to pass on my turn.  Just found out I'll be out of town that day.

Also, I vote for the million cloaks idea.

[abculatter_2]

There are two ways to fix that mouse issue.

One is to play on windowed mode and, whenever you designate stuff, move the mouse outside the window.

The other is to disable the mouse altogether in the init.txt

abculatter! Why didn't you upload the save man?

[Samus1111111]

do we have a well?

I mean, did someone ever set up a water collecting system?

[abculatter_2]

abculatter! Why didn't you upload the save man?

Because I didn't play my turn. I was playing other games and never got around to playing DF.

I mean, did someone ever set up a water collecting system?

Someone did, but it doesn't work.

[Samus1111111]

ok, here's the save: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=1332

not much happened....

killed two sieges, losing 5 dwarves in the process, started a tantrum spiral, ended (almost) a tantrum spiral, witnessed the two most Spark Gear dwarves ever (two dwarves who went beserk and promptly started killing babies, children, puppies, and dogs only, ignoring everything else ), expanded a little bit on the defences.

No migrants, designated some barrels to be made out of blackmetal. Food and booze stable.

Lost around 5 dwarves to orcs and goblins, 5-10 to insanity, and around 5 to lack of water for wounded.

[nahkh]

W-buh?
Blackmetal barrels?
Are you mad?

[Skid]

He's playing SparkGear, would you expect him to be otherwise?

EDIT: What on earth did you people DO to this place?  Three berserks in the first ten minutes...

And where is the entrance control? There are humans and elves outside being eaten by goblins.

EDIT again: Scratch that, they all just got wiped out by kobold bowmen. The elven and human liaison are currently the only survivors, sprinting laps around the outside of the fortress.

If you open the Main Gate at the bottom of the map, they can get into the Fort quickly, that's how I made it work in the end. Are you allowing that???
To let them out use the second Gate...
Set Soldiers in the Areas that look over the bridges so that any besieging unit comes in, they are taken out quickly and without hassle as the Merchants leave...

[Skid]

It isn't knowing which bridges to use, it's that I can't find the levers that are supposed open the bridges.

Brak Obama bit the dust at the hands of some maniac, the armorer went mad, and the hammerer died of thirst.

[Tarquinius]

When I ended my turn, all the dwarves were happy. Blame all the chaos on the people who came after me.

[Neyvn]

They were happy before I handed it over, as for the levers its a few levels down, 4 I think from the Trade Depo, look for the 3x3 stairs and go down till after the cluttered stockpiles, its in the first engraved area...

The leaver in the middle top is the one for the Main Gate south, the ones on the left are for the secondary entrance. Use Shift+n to find the notes and read to make sure you have the right ones...

Told you guys not to disable justice...  of course if you go back now you'll get a couple years worth of beatings all at once.

[ArkDelgato]

YES.
BEAT THEM ALL.
BEAT THEM GOOD.
