Really newbish question but when I start one game lets say dwarf fortress when I try to play a different game mode it just goes straight to the load for screen how do I make it so I can play dwarf fortress and then switch to Legends or Adventure mode later?

You can only play one game per region, though you can retire an adventurer then take them out of retirement or abandon a fort then reclaim it. Or make a copy of the region, though obviously things can't affect each other from that point.

^I think they can also send caravans and have members launch ambushes.

Also, the compass isn't bugged, it just isn't always useful because all it points to is the center or entrance of a site.

That's a bummer that dark towers are gone. Until they're re-implemented, I'll deeply cherish my memories of slaughtering dozens of goblins.

And I never get a chance to in the first place. My first worlds always had all the goblins displaced by humans, which included my adventurers themselves, so they never ambushed either.

Multiple units can stand in the same tile, but only one can stand up. If someone else is standing on a tile you need to go on, just hit [ s ] to get on the ground and be able to move into it, just remember to stand back up once you can, especially before fighting, because doing so seriously slows you down.

As for the money, either it was scattered around the area (in which case it should be on the same tile of the quick-travel map) or leaving it unattended let someone else take it. Probably the first one.

just hit to get on the ground and be able to move into it

1. What do you mean by another land? You can travel anywhere in your world that you can get to. If you mean can you travel to other people's worlds with your adventurer, then yes it's possible, but they have to give you a copy of their save.

3. The mouse doesn't have too many uses in adventure mode. You can turn the sound up and down by clicking on different levels. It can be used to mark things for construction and dumping and the like in fortress mode.

And yes, puzzleboxes are trade goods. It's a type of toy, I believe. They have no use but to trade.

[Yuzuke]

What do you mean by another land?

I mean ..cross the ocean , Or I just stuck in this island where i was "born".

[Knigel]

^Yes, you can in theory cross the ocean by swimming, but you'll need an adventure that's a really good swimmer that can cross it before getting exhausted, the patience of a saint because it will take literally hours in real time, and a really good computer because processing so much water at once can easily cause a game to crash.

[Yuzuke]

Time to practice swimming !!

Find a cave that leads to the caverns and cross the ocean underground

hey guys im new but I got some questions that I count find in the wiki.
Im currently using the lazy newb pack.

1. the knapping skill
when i use it it shows like sharp, -sharp- and +sharp+ I was wondering does this mean that a -sharp- is sharper(causes more dammage) than a sharp? and if so whats the order from best 2 worst sharpness?

2. money
I got tons of money in this game and they take a couple of pages so I was wondering, if you can unite that money? because I got lets say
20 gold coins and 20 cooper and 10 gold coins and 5 cooper in the screen. is there eny way i can unite the 20 gold coins with the 10 gold coins and same with cooper? so this way i dount get my inventory full of money that cant be united.

1)I think it's - - then + + and goes up. Those are quality modifiers, so yeah, they do more damage.

2) There's no way to stack money at the moment, but one civilisations money is worthless in another civilization, so you're better buying gems and such for trade. There is a trick to cause money to stack, but I can't remember.

Find a cave that leads to the caverns and cross the ocean underground 

Yeah, I recommend this method. The trick is finding a cave back up on the other side.
