I'm an electronic instrument that utilizes nobles to make complex waveforms that can be combined into countless sonic variations through various waveform synthesis techniques?

Ya know what? Instead of magma, each nobles room will be lined with holes in the floor. Spikey holes.

Sounds like the entire fortress is going to be a death trap by the time its nearing completion. I guess I didn't help keep that from happening by immedietly building a magma dump zone.

[quinnr]

I saw that, what is it for? Can't we just have normal (quantum) dumps?

[Set_Beadra]

D= Then make one. I like dumping into magma since it destroys the items instead of having thousands of items stacked into one square.

Dumping stones in magma? i understand that you want to dump nobles,goblinite or cats but stone?
use the Quantum stockpile to your advantage and put it RIGHT on the mason workshops and dont forget to reclaim it. Your mason can level up in a few days without moving a scratch(expect eating and sleeping), i do this. Its really usefull, but yeah it takes some dwarves to clean up the stone.
BUT ITS DAMN WORTH IT!

how do you make a quantum stockpile again?

also, for something big, I had an epic idea for a magma/drowning trap outside our door, but it's not lookin good with no bauxite or glass...

[Set_Beadra]

A quantum stockpile is just a 1x1 channeled hole that you set as a dump. An infinite amount of stone can be piled into that spot if you go and mark all your stone as dump. It's pretty handy for cleaning up around your place and having all the stone close to your masons shops.

Also. I believe I have completed my fortress. I'm bored of it since all my miners killed themselves by caving in an area in the tower I was channeling out. If anyone wants to see it here's the link. http://mkv25.net/dfma/map-8219-ringedburns make sure you click the points of interest on the left side.

Where's everyone at? Any new updates on the fortress yet?

[quinnr]

I didn't play last night. I will play again tonight

[Set_Beadra]

Alrighty. I look forward to the update so we can get to the next person. =)

Ah... Insanity does work. After a third attempt at the same thing. (Downloading mike maydays 40d18 from his site) with a little tweaking I managed to get it to work except for the annoying no using alt + arrow key to scroll through menus. Though now neither dwarf manager or dwarf therapist will work with it. Where did I go wrong T_T?

[quinnr]

Try using the keybind menu to change it to something without ALT.

[Trigonous]

Dwarf Manager and Dwarf Therapist work with his d18 conversion, but things like visual fortress and Dwarf Companion do not.  However, they don't work on the vanilla d19 either, so I'm thinking it's just 'cause they haven't been updated.  I haven't tried Dwarf Therapist on vanilla d19, but I think it's the same story, it hasn't been updated to work with it.

sooo...whose turn is it again?
