quick travel issues
« on: November 12, 2010, 03:54:51 am »
i can quick travel but i cant stop quick traveling >.< when im in the screen the icon it gives me to stop is the stairs icon from dwarf fortress. and as far as i know i dont have that key on my keyboard so either i travel forever or i travel till somthing disturbs me and pulls me out of it only to die a horrible death from night creatures...... im using a graphics pack that was made by a person as a work around til phoebus releases the official pack. the link is at the bottom of this page http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=57557.420

Forgotten Beasts seem to be akin to Toady playing Russian Roulette with your fortress, as they can be anything from harmless giant worms made of mud to necrotic-gas spewing nigh-invunerable iron hydras of doom.

Shift+. to stop traveling. Which is ">". You definitely have this key.

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

I could say: The key you are looking for is > (Shitft+"<")

It depends on what type of keyboard you have.

That's because in fortress mode stairs are represented by ">" symbols - unless, like you, they have installed a graphics pack.

That's an ascii character? o_O

or are you using Mayday's pack? The stairs for mayday's pack does that with certain colors/background color.
