Watering down the booze
« on: November 26, 2007, 10:24:00 pm »
In times of shortage booze can be 1:? parts mixed with water. significant   :mad:  vibes from the dwarves as a result perhaps, but work will continue.

Would be useful: keeps dwarves working at the same speed but with some bad thoughts. There would need to be a max dilution though.

How undwarvish.  But it could be useful.  As long as the happiness penalty isn't worse than drinking only water.

At very least watering down your booze should give you proportionally less brewer skill (because you brewed less) and at worst no skill (because you're being a pansy elf-like beardless antidwarf)

Let's make it so that watering down the booze has little effect on the dwarves drinking it themselves, but has a low chance of causing tantrums, melancholy or things like that for the brewer itself  :D

The dwarfs should have a chance of forming a mob and lynching the brewer if they get the watered down booze for too long a time lol.

mmmMMMMmmm, Dwarven Grog!

But you'd need a water source to use to mix with the alcohol, but if you HAVE a water source, it really decreases the overall need for extending your booze supply (the whole no-booze work slowdown i guess is an issue, but if you have that little booze, you're bound to have problems anyway)
