i would like to see bars implemented in the game as a separate piece than the usual dining room. It could be created using either a regular table, or a Keg.

The keg, if implemented, could be filled from the specified(in the item submenu) brand of alcool and dwarves would keep it filled as long as the specified brew is available.

So now when dwarves get thirsty, or when they want to party, they would gather in the bar, with their favorite Gabbro Mug that has an image of a dead elf on it, and get drunk. Any kind of argument in the bar should have a chance to degenerate in a brawl for added fun(unarmed only, maybe permit chairs and the like if you want to be fancy  

[Mohreb el Yasim]

i like the idea it is enought dwarfis to implement  

[Sean Mirrsen]

Custom rooms akin to zones? Say, this area is a dining hall/meeting room combo, let's call it a bar. People will hang out in here when they're bored, and they'll eat/drink in here. Combination of people drinking and lots of other people (presuming drunken state is implemented) can result in a massive brawl. With no specific coding of "bar brawls" involved.

[Hyperturtle]

s long as we have the bar, I propose that we are able to make 10 story/z-level beer bongs.  Heck, the pipes can be made.  

There should be a Beer Pump to allow for beer fountains.

Also, given the bar scene, dwarf bowling should be allowed as well.

Yet I don't see my suggestions as being very productive.  It'd be a hell of a party at the chalk statue, though!  yeah and make parties create more incidents of nausea and vomitting.

And when dwarves hold a grudge, these can be decreased or increased as a result of overdrinking with the offending dwarf around.  He could become a drinking buddy, or the target of drunken anger!

[Drakale]

@Sean: Well i wanted to have a distinct place for the bar as it should only be frenquented by the rowdy dwarf, no childrens, elves, cows... ok maybe cows on really wild nights. But yeah you get the general idea    

@HyperTurtle: Heh well i want bar, not an extreme dwarven frat house  :p but vomit would certainly add flavor(and smell).

Adventure-mode has human bars, and human drunks, but no human bar brawls.  This must be rectified.

As for the dwarves, it's always bugged me how they drink straight from the barrel.

You CAN start a brawl, but then the entire kingdom apparently consider it a crime worthy of death penality...Pansy humans   :roll:

[Draco18s]

I believe bars have been suggested before, needing a table (up to 3), a chair (up to 3), and a barrel.  Rooms can be designated off of the bar workshop itself to include more chairs and tables.

[Drakale]

A bar workshop? Thats not at all what i'm suggesting, i want to designate a bar room, what would you need a workshop for? fancy drinks? Sounds elvish to me...

Seriously all we need is a container so the drunken dwarves dont have to go to the stockpile to get their booze, ability for dwarves to use a mug, because mugs are cool, and the possibility to designate a bar room from a table or the container... Then its just a matter of implementing drunken behavior  

Not trivial to add, but it would be a really great improvement over the useless parties we have at the moment...

[Alfador]

Dwarves do not get more violent and thus bar brawl when drunk. They get unhappy and violent when they're too sober. I could see well brawls or river melees or pond rampages. But bars would be places of socialization and fraternization for anything with a beard.

[Drakale]

IMHO a happy dwarf is a fighting dwarf  
It's not like i want the bar to be a bloodbath, but sometimes an argument over the best way to trim a beard can get intense, especially when the dwarves have somewhat less inhibition.

[Drakale]

While on the subject of alcool abuse, i would like to see a new melancholy effect for failed artifacts or bad morale; Alcoolism. Kinda like melancholy, except the dwarf now spend all his time in the bar in drunken stupor, sometimes throwing briefs tantrum that get him in trouble with the law(that should shorten his life expectancy somewhat given dwarven "justice").

[Othob Rithol]

It would be pretty fun to watch them drink and fight. I also like the idea of always seeing Ol' Urist Alwayshammered locked up his cell, the one you went ahead and designated as his bedroom because he usually slept there.

Aren't all dwarves alcoolists from birth?

[Drakale]

By our standards yes, but i imagine there is a point where even dwarves consider someone too drunk for his own good.
