Wow, that settlement thing sounds AWESOME.  Hinterlands and the Fallout 3 settlement mod comes to mind.  That'd be cool if you can give the citizens in your town jobs, like woodcutter, hunter, etc.. and with the resources you can direct it towards building the town and stuff.

So... Dwarf Fortress?

Yeah, no great shock that the Bay12 community would find the city-builder the most interesting of the proposals. 

[Tnx]

Yeah I totally forgot about DF too.  Now I feel stupid -_-

4. More general world/townbuilding - In the dim future (maybe never) I would like to add a major plot that would allow you to grow and defend a settlement in the world, with the 'win' condition for that being surviving a certain set of events, and providing for a thriving settlement. This would be a long time from now, and might just end up being a seperate game if it happens.

Oh please pleaseeee do this.  Optional, of course.  It should be a very, very difficult quest to complete though.

[forsaken1111]

I don't see why it should be a difficult quest to complete or something. Why not just a different game mode? Or have it as one of the starting builds.

Couple fixes and a couple new goodies.

*2 new artifact melee weapons
*Fixed the display of melee weapon penetration above strength cap
*Slightly rebalanced all melee weapon penetration values
*You should no-longer be given mutations you already have when picking a new mutation

This game is excellent. Quite entertaining, and the setting is quite fun.

Is it just me, or is flaming hands really powerful early on?

Hey, is anyone else seeing rapidly ballooning memory requirements? If I didn't know better I'd say you were trying to hold everything that got built in active memory, but that wouldn't even account for it - how you unpack a 9 mb save file into 600 megs of active memory is beyond me. My computer just can't hack it; the pagefile explodes and the hard drive starts thrashing. Which is a shame, because I really like the first couple hours before it becomes unplayable.

There are still some memory issues, obviously. I'll work them out eventually! Your save isn't jsut the .SAV, it's the .SAV plus every zone in the zone cache

There should only be 8-10 zones in memory at once (400-500mb), but it gets a little wanky at times when something leaves a dangling reference and goes nuts.

Why do you have to make such an addicting game?

[Astral]

Great game. I've had issues with DF in a non-tileset environment, but this one is fairly intuitive and easy to pick up.

[alfie275]

but it gets a little wanky at times

I think you mean wonky, or cranky.

I found an issue. Quests dont clear when you restart a game with the same file. Probably causes some memory bloat problems.

What do you mean restart a game with the same file?
