No Sand Tag on embark screen .19
« on: February 21, 2011, 02:22:00 pm »
While I much prefer the new embark screen in terms of simplifying the procedure for picking a site, there is no sand tag, it should be there just as clay is and it should also be an option in the site finder.

Currently the only way you can be sure to get sand is to embark on a dessert/ocean.

I agree, but I also think this should be over in the suggestions section ;)

It's already been brought up in the announcements thread and the missing metals threads, which Toady read and responded to.  He already knows about the request.

Personally, I like [DF] because after climbing the damned learning cliff, I'm too elitist to consider not liking it.
