A misspell and Super starting dwarf?
« on: April 03, 2010, 10:23:18 pm »

Ok, I was in the arena mode talking to myself like a dumb-ass when I noticed something...

Ub3r misspell!

Also say hello to "Edzul Tongsdawned" the superior starting dwarf (I swear I killed nothing!)


What happened?

haha that's awesome
hey not to spam but i'm having a major problem with dwarf fortress right now, it's kind of (ok, really) off topic but i'm eager to play.  My labor menu under the "view unit" thing is completely messed up, it only gives me 4 sub-menus - mining, healthcare, hauling, and other jobs.  This basically means that I can't play...any ideas?

I tried that, and it opens up the relevant subtopics under those categories, but I still can's cut wood, brew, plant, or do any of those basic things besides mining, healthcare, hauling, alchemy, and architecture, so I have no source of food or anything

You dwarves usually start with the superior stats because of his weapons skills, at least thats what I heard. My current adventurer has just about slaughtered his entire civilization (I think?) with over 300 kills. His only injury is his right ear which was shot off before I had a proper helmet. Most of his strength, agility, toughness, etc. is "superhuman" and he is a multi-legendary 'fighter' and a legendary axe lord. He also has a pretty decent throwing skill because I took every corpse from one of the towns and threw them into the temple pool =)

This makes adventure mode easier =o
Though, it could be because you're intended to adventure down below....

Not a misspelling. Expand your side menu, and take another look.

if it was a "right front foo", wouldn't there have to be a raw definition for a "right front foo"?

That would be on the small side of terrifying.

You should come inside the box.

Then you'll know what I mean.

Yeah?
Silver isn't as useless as it used to be for weapons because of the material overhaul.
