Dwarfplosion Dwarftacular!

It would be fun to have a command that would make all your dwarfs explode, destroying everything around them.  It would be irreversible and "ALL" your dwarfs would explode leaving craters and dust clouds everywhere!

Why?

My guess would be that he just finished playing Lemmings and thought that would be more entertaining than clicking "Abandon Fortress"

You could have berries on the rocks and the dwarves would say it was "berry gneiss."
You should die horribly for this. And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

It would say 'your settlement has crumbled' before you saw any explosions.

I thought the suggestion sounded familiar. :D That explains much.

I think you can do this by modding the boiling point of fat, or bone or something similar.

Yeah, there was a catsplosion mod someone made once that would probably work for this.

Thermonuclear catsplosion. The distinction between this and the regular variety are large, mainly that TC's are bad lulzy for cats and good for dwarves, and regular ones vice versa.

We already build doomsday devices to destroy the whole fort in one go, he's just suggesting a button to destroy everything without needing to build a device.

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.

Hmm.. what we need is to somehow be able build dynamite.. and to place TNT clusters in strategical locations in the forts. Then be able to connect levers to them.

Someone plays too much Minecraft. XD


I agree, Toady has many... many... MANY... more necessary things to work on than a dwarfy-explody-button.
