When you consider how lethal thrown objects are in this game... and also bear in mind the crap-throwing habits of many primates... perhaps Rhesus Macaques will displace Carp as the new bane of Dwarvenkind, once this is implimented.

and so, the shit-wars have begun.

I wonder if there'll be new furniture, like toilets, and if need to build sewers, or just shovel the crap (new job: Poopsmith). If there'll be toilets, we'll need aqueducts and mechanisms to flush them?

On the other hand, if monkey attack using shit projectiles, we just gather it and shoot it right back at them with our new Crap-A-Pults.... made of dried turd blocks, of course. Hmm... what'll it be like to build a whole shit fortress, with crap walls, poop furniture and excrement workshops...

It just occurred to me how awesome an artifact toilet would be.

It just occurred to me how awesome an artifact toilet would be.

Especially one made out of shit.

Yeah. Think about that one.

What a great topic! Actually laughed out loud a few times reading it.

As for the avatar: if you can't laugh at yourself (and other forumites' comments as well), then you're in trouble. Laugh it up!

Urist McDwarf has been ecstatic lately. He admire a fine turtle turd door lately. He admired a fine toilet lately. He took a great dump lately. He was disgusted by a smelly turd lately....

...Actually, this whole toilet business could be worth a thread in Suggestions. I was just thinking of how interesting it would be to have to make a Bathroom workshop that requires running water (as in, with a flow) under it to operate - otherwise, dwarves get bad thoughts (probably not from miasma per se, but there'd be an odor).

Plus, having toilets provides an excellent means of combatting carp.

[Heliomance]

Does that make an artifact dung altar a holy crap?

[Samyotix]

I'd prefer liquid manure: use buckets to fertilize fields ... or use a pump to flood the world, or even just drown Greenskins in it.

[The Architect]

A river of sludge would be very nice, and you could have gods of filth and disease. Hey, as long as you're randomly assigning domains to randomly generated gods, you might as well take it there.

[Grendus]

eh, all crap is good for IMHO is fertilizer and fuel. use it in plash of potash for fields, or in place of charcoal/coke for the forge.

To be serious for a second, we had this discussion before. Turds don't have enough carbon to break the chemical bonds in smelting, and don't have enough energy density to melt high temperature  metals like steel. Using them for cooking or bonfires though (two somewhat popular suggestions) is a good idea though.

It's already had several. This is not the first time issues of waste have come up.

Because of this thread, I want poo to be implemented, it's to bad Toady put his foot down about any sort of system including excrement.
