yeppers.

There's no such thing as "briny infertile mud".

Alrighty... trying to figure out how tundra biomes work.

I embarked, and literally dug down and got everybody underground ASAP

but people still died of cold... why?

Odd, I've had migrants hang out outside my glacier fort for months, they died of thirst not cold.  I think temperature was on.  Still, depending on world-gen I imagine a place could get *very* cold.

Try turning temperature off, that may allow you to get the dwarves inside, then you can turn it on again if you like.  Dwarves indoors don't suffer from cold that I know of.

Way I understood him, his dwarves froze despite getting indoors. Regardless, turning temperature off is probably the only thing he can do, as you've said.

[shadowclasper]

no that's it

They WERE UNDERGROUND.

I even had them moving the stuff UNDERGOUND really fast. (literally, waves. collect 8 stacks of food, come back, wait for a while, go back, get more, etc.etc.

refuse RIGHT outside. It was impossible for anybody to be outside for longer than a few moments. And they survived for a GOOD LONG time (they just never seemed to warm up I guess >_>

does this rule even apply if you dig INTO the ice?

How do you assign dwarves s military int he new version? I assigned one to a squad int he (M) military menu but he is still in civilian mode.

[Balsis]

How can I muddy up some floor for an underground farm in this version? Does it have to be as complicated as opening up the ceiling above it, dumping water on it as a pond, and then flooring it back up?

Anyone know how the TEACHING skill is used by the dwarves?

Military dwarves can teach other military dwarves military skills now.

Seems like a fairly easy question, anyone know?

[Lofn]

Once you have a squad created you hit 's' then issue orders as specified.  When they're not active they revert to their civilian roles.

[lastofthelight]

Does anyone know how I assign things to the hospital? I can hit the Capital H button when in the hospital zone but I have no idea what it means. I know its not the 'assign resources' screen, because I do NOT have most of those resources.

[Lofn]

They seem to gather the resources automatically and store them in any chests or whatever you've built in the hospital zone.

Once you have a squad creatured, you hit then issue orders as specified.  When they're not active they revert to their civilian roles.

What?
