Using .14 I'm up to hour 12 of collapse calculations pinging 100% on a dedicated core.

either my laptop will melt or it will complete at some point.

You, are my hero.  The question is, will it vaporize all that adamantine, or will it be "insta mined"

[Shadetree]

it 'should' drop down to form an unmined adamantine mountain.

Though since the whole map is buggy who knows.  I swear a piece of addy I mined out turned into a different type of stone at one point.

[Xenos]

oh really?  I thought cave ins like that resulted in vaporizing everything...or does natural stone behave differently?

[Untelligent]

Natural stone walls (not floors) remains intact when they fall, kinda.

[iceball3]

Yeah. It just drops down, ending up where it lands. It doesn't behave like an entire structure, but rather, each piece that doesn't indirectly connect to the edge of the map becomes independent. so if you have...

OHOif H was a wall then digging away the tile beneath the bottom one would make it do this..

oh weird.  well, the benefit of this would be hiding any nasty tubes if there are any

[slothen]

im jealous... The only adamantine spire I've found has extended to the top level of the magma sea and NOT ONE GODDMAN LEVEL HIGHER.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Well, this is a rather extreme example. Someone should make a program to scramble DF's worldgen data so we can get crazy stuff like this more often.

[Shadetree]

just bsod after however many hours this would make it. 


I do have the save where all you have to do is pull out a single support to make it drop if anyone else has a beefier core they want to put it one.

Guys it's been EIGHT DAYS since anyone posted.
Do we have any new information at all?
And please for the love of all that's holy someone get that save and collapse the hell out of this thing.
My computer has a seizure when I try to run a normal fort, let alone this monstrosity otherwise I'd try it myself.

There was another one like this, except it basically rains magma all over the world in addition to having 210k adamantine.  I'm trying to crunch it to something usable but I don't think it will work.

So, has it stopped collapsing after a month of processing?

[vadia]

does the elevator work in .18?

I am going to toss this out there as an idea. I actually do have access to a super computer. Specifically the 88th fastest super computer (well its a cluster technically) in the world. Now the problem is, I don't have administrator rights, and it uses a version of Linux called CentOS. Now I have some experience with linux, and in using bash in general. The problem is that I don't know if there is any way to get the Linux version of DF to run. If anyone is willing to lend me a hand trying to get it setup, I could devote some time to getting this thing to run and see if I can collapse it. Just a thought.

All praise to Armok!
