Can always use another pet Llama around the fort!

Yeah I favour the single-tile stockpile restricted to totems and max 0 bins method but random theft can be an issue if they are not somewhere safe... :F

Bump for great justice! This shall not go beyond page 1!

In anticipation of Ironhand's return I have spent the day doing dwarfy things! Here are some highlights

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Apart from tweaking up all the tiles I've already made, like the beds:


I've also been trying to fix those empty black squares that crop up like "designated floor construction". An interesting side effect means that Engraved floors have to look different to Smoothed floors.

(Note the pair of tables on the right that have been built, but not yet hauled.)


Things made from lead, cobaltite and other materials with inverted foreground/background colours continue to look a bit odd, but I'm still working on it:

Cages - Gold / Lead / Wood


Various doors, including gold (but not using the correct tile like all metal doors...), bloody, muddy and (blue?) vomit covered!


A cool iridescent sort of thing going on with some gems using this technique though?


And it adds a bit of variety to remains!

(Why dont corpses use the zombie and skeleton tiles available?!?!)


Also been working on the "Z-level below" tiles:

[Aklyon]

Awesome!

[TealThanatos]

Keep up the awesomeness!

Small thing - Maybe it's just me, but I *really* preferred the round pillar.

[WormSlayer]

New Stone and Ore tiles?

[TealThanatos]

I like the idea of irregularly shaped boulders, rather than perfectly round, but they need to take up more of the tile rather than having the empty spaces.

I'm not sure about the ore it kinda looks... spiky? like a furball

[TealThanatos]

Can we just drop in the files in .09 or does it not work?

PS - Ironhand, drop the link to the standalone download on the original post, it's hard to find amongst the pages where you dropped it hehe

Can't wait to get this cranking in .09!

Things are looking great WormSlayer, Very nice work you have been doing, I also like the idea of irregular boulder shapes but like TealThanatos said they should take up more of the tile.

[WormSlayer]

Yeah it was supposed to be spikey version of the stone. The new stone is basically the same size as the old one - I quite like how it doesnt take up a whole tile, makes areas with a lot of loose stone look less cluttered?

I think you should be able to just drop it in, depends how much has changed...? I have yet to upgrade to .09 - too busy crafting pixels!

Star shaped gems?

[Alcoholic]

Star gems looks good. 

EDIT: Also I guess your right on the less cluttery part on the stone size. My problem before I couldn't really notice them but the way you put it I realize its a good thing.

[WormSlayer]

As with everything its entirely subjective, no matter what I do some people will like it, others will hate it

This is what metal doors would look like, if they worked:

[Aklyon]

that metal door looks like a tombstone.

[Cheddarius]

I think it looks like a door.

[HeliumFreak]

I think you'll both be shocked to discover that doors and tombstones share many a similar geometrical property or two
