.18 and the Newest Version
« on: April 09, 2011, 09:24:37 pm »
I'm thinking of going from 31.18 to the newest version. Are there any major differences between the two I should know about?
Other than eggs, grazing, and mineral scarcity; I know about those.

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

It should be fine; you'll get the mechanics improvements for old things but none of the new ones, obviously.

Giant badgers are cruel saddistic balls of fur and hate. Did anyone know they could paint a wall with a single dwarven baby?.... You know what, I made the Giant badgers sound like sane DF players.

The one thing I will regret about the update is grazing. Other than that, it is win.

No more farm flooding, PRAISE TOADY!

.19 added yarn. If you don't want an occasional impossible mood, go in to your save's raws and add [YARN] to the silk definition.

Or perhaps you're just sadistic and enjoy slow-cooking your goblins/kittens/nobles.

They can't. Also, use sheep then.

...I have to mod in a spit attack for llamas, maybe even give them some syndrome they'd cause with their extract...

What llama? This is a .18 world, remember?

Or maybe there's a god who's just completely insane and sends you to Detroit, Michigan in a new body if you ever utter the name "Pat Sajak".

What?! Who dares speak against grazing? Grazing is awesome!  Herds of tigers guarding entrances, with some raw editing, herds of trogs defending your deep entrance. No ropes!

Because tigers are herbivores, right? Oh wait... logic. This is DF. ::)

Are tigers grazers?  :-\

That'd be stupid

.25 is soooooo nice. Some new stuff for new headaches, but the older bugs for the reliable things removed, also better options on menu screens
