There really isnt a good spot atleast that I have found because for some reason all forest disapppeared off this it is bull carp

[Ultimuh]

I am not talking about spots, but dwarves vaulters you start up with.

[adwarf]

ah I really just play with  the characters I getb but if you want more points try custom worldgen instead of create a world takes longer but you get more points

[Ultimuh]

Hmm.. alright Ill try that.. Now to figure out how farming works.. since I never got it since 0.31.something.
Was simpler before then..

[adwarf]

Its real easy if you make an underground one take fungi and you can gather above ground plants including nuka-cola plants ( i would advise you to save this to be brewed )

[Ultimuh]

Well I have tries several times for undergound farms in vanilla, every time it says I do not have the seeds required, even if I actrually have them.

[adwarf]

I use the graphics and it works just fine (( wait  do you have the plants or the seeds because it will say the plant type if you have it ))

[Ultimuh]

It simply says that I dont have any seeds required.
Also I meant Vanilla DF, without mods.

[adwarf]

Not sure what would cause that but if you download this graphics I know works but i dont know about ascii you might want to try and uninstall then reinstall DF if its glitched or just start a new fort on a new world

[Ultimuh]

Well I do use graphics but that is not the issue.. In ALL version of DF after .31.x even if I have redownloaded or not I get this problem, it might be me who simply dont get how to farm in this version.

for underground it must be mud above ground soil

Ultimuh: to do any underground farming in the new version you have to muddy the tiles. Even soil refuses to work like it did.
Look up 'irrigation' on the wiki. It should give you everything you need to know.
You can plant above-ground crops on any outside soil, so herbalism can be handy to have.

For embark skills, it depends on the location.
At least one miner is a must, and having an armor/weaponsmith with furnace operator can get your military going early, which is a good thing considering how deadly firearms can be.
Try a few things, learn from any mistakes. Just like vanilla.

Yes thanks, I will try to get it to work.
It is either that to edit some tags to remove the need for food and drink. A habbit I need to kill.
Ill take a look at the wiki, thanks.

Hey, I'm pretty bad about the [SPEED:#] tags myself. Well, I 'do' set them equally for everything, but still.
And hunting is actually a pretty viable alternative to farming, what with the whole 'Hunting with a gun instead of a crossbow.' thing.


Oh, and I did test out the A.M. rifle that I had mentioned a bit.
Still needs some tweaking I think, but it seems to be just the ticket for a heavy-duty tech faction.

If it says you don't have any SEEDS, it means that you don't have seeds in the stockpile. Which is weird because you usually start with them. Do you have cave fungi spawns' bags etc.?

So what are the raws/results of testing? Any XML comparison to normal rifle testing?
