WOOO CRATES!

[LucasUP]

Sweet crates man.
I like the bricks-behind-numbers, but will that look weird for liquids with depth-display?

[afoninv]

Crates are... so isometric. Maybe that's why they look so small, esp. in comparison to barrels? I mean, isometric is OK, but this pic has an angle that makes the smallest possible crate size.

[Harmonica]

How are food crates being displayed separately there?

[Cheddarius]

The barrels are displayed almost full-on; they're as wide as the whole tile. But the crates are shown from an isometric perspective. The crate width is maybe half of the full tile; if it was displayed almost full-on, it could be a square that would be almost as wide as the whole tile, and be about similar size to the crates.

But in my opinion, it doesn't really matter, it looks fine. And I really like having these crates, they look nice and help differentiate between food/drink.

Having tried it out, I do think they look better side on with a bit of perspective:


Harmonica: Thats the tile for "prepared food" - It's also listed as being for a dozen other things too, so not sure if it will actually work...

They do show up randomly in un-revealed ground.

Ironhand + Wormslayer = Uber tileset team. That is all.

Uh oh. At the very least screw pumps are going to look like an alteration of barrels and boxes when activated. May be confusing/distracting. And then some rocks will also happen to randomly be boxes EDIT: or not, since Ironhand likely has them designated to another tile. I think I could live with this though.

Ironhand, I just got around to downloading these graphics. I was hesitant at first, since no matter what I tried with any graphics, it always came up as a black screen. These graphics work, and they are truly amazing. The only things I must say is that when I looked at stockpiles, I could barely see the lines that designate them, it was just almost entirely black. But otherwise, amazing. Good job on the graphics!

[WormSlayer]

I posted a screenshot of a stockpile full of food and drink just above ^^

Do stockpile tiles not look like that for you?

Having tried it out, I do think they look better side on with a bit of perspective:

Why is there dotted lines outlining the walls? it looks weird.

Probably means it's engraved.

Always has.

So can anyone tell me where Dwarf Fortress uses the semi-colon character ";" for anything other than the masonry workshop and kitchen?

That tile could be better used, if for nothing else than a workshop-like graphic?

[Hippoman]

Semicolon is also a bush.
