Well, anyone that thinks MC did it first is a dunce and should probably read up on DF and MC.

Also any publicity that DF gets that actually attracts new players, is good publicity IMO.

Now we just need a very good step by step guide like the one I read for Aurora.

There's a guide for Aurora that actually relates to the current version? Where?

The first lesson taught by DF is patience.
The second: Madness.
The third: Magma, properly applied, solves all problems.

Huh, I was wondering why the forum was acting strange. Now I know why; tons and tons of people coming onto the forum. I mean, wow, 2228 people. I guess I was lucky, since I missed the initial storm because I was still sleeping.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

That's probably what Toady should include in the next release. A tutorial world. A pre-genned world that is in every download of the game, so that someone could take the time to write a tutorial, for the tutorial world, that way everyone is on the same page. At least for the beginning.

-pre-post edit-

@Blackdutchie - I read these tutorials and it went smoothly. Everything went together perfectly and I didn't run into any problems of me not having stuff on the tutorials. It at least got me past that hurdle of understanding what is going on... for the most part.

I mod games and educate others how to do so as well, if you'd like to learn join my Discord and you can join a bunch of like minded individuals. (Presently modding Space Engineers and No Man's Sky.)

Looking into modding DF? This forum guide & wiki guide may still be a good start!

It's popular now it sucks?
It's popular now it broke more like.

I'm sorry to derail, as I would have nothing interesting to add to this topic, but this sentence has been nagging at me for a while.
English is not my native language, so don't read my question as ironic or a nasty comment, but can someone please be kind enough to explain what this sentence means and how it's constructed ?

He means that the influx of guests broke the forum "It's popular, therefore it is broken" Rather than "It's popular, therefore it sucks"

The funny thing is they are all linked to the Stonesense thread.

Even people who can't play DF at all know Stonesense.

Well people who have never played DF have read, and laughed at, the story of Boatmurded.

EDIT: You know, I have hardly noticed the visitor influx. Why are your servers broken and mine working well?

Didn't DF get an influx of players when Nerf Now did a DF comic? I know that was when I first heard of this game was when I read it...
