Well, it only hates Linux for now. If we could condition it to hate computer viruses, than hooray! Free, brutal virus protection! Unless you have Linux!

I'm gonna cast my vote for the autodump as well. Would be a shame to lose this fort to a low FPS rate.

The closest thing we have to what some call 'allies' gets slaughtered in front of our gates. Unfortunately they don't transform into mindless beasts, trying to kill us.

BTW. +1 vote for autodump  :D

Well, so far it looks like I'll be autodumping, but I'd like to get AnimaRytak's opinion as well, as it is his thread. I figure if he doesn't say No by the end of the day, I'll start with the dumping. This fort will run at 35+ FPS by the end of my turn or I'll eat my mouse!

Why not just make a backup of the save as of now, then go ahead and autodump?

If it utterly fails to improve FPS, or if Anima gets tweaked out for some reason, you could always revert to the backup.

Good point. I didn't think about that, since I don't usually use it in my other forts, but that would work. I'll get started soon, should have a proper update by tomorrow.

It's probably worth mentioning that AnimaRytak is the only ecstatic dwarf in the entire fort.
Quick, check him for rum! The bastard's probably spirited some off to his lair office, to act as pleasant refreshment as his evil scheme unfolds!

Would it be too much to ask that the autodump be written in as some supernatural force?  Like the savescum  in Syrupleaf?

Is your plan really to flush water into hell, and have the CARP marines fight them without threat of flame or disease?  If so, you are awesome, and one of the greatest DF military visionaries I've seen yet ( not that I've seen that many, or any, for that matter )

Well, I'm not really good at RPing stuff like this, but personally, I'm just blaming the mass disappearance of items on the ghosts. They're known thieves and I've only managed to put down 5 of them so far.

Also, FORWARD THE CARP MARINES! SEMPER EBRIOS!

Well, most of them were dead before my turn started, 2 more died on bizarre suicide trips into marksgoblin forces to celan themselves in the river or reload a trap that I expressly forbade access to, one died in bed, I think, and I'm just sort of ignoring the rest, since my goal is to clean up the fort, not kill things.

So far, I've decommissioned at least 8 garbage sites, built an atom smasher in an adamantine vein near the main base, smashed 22,504 items so far, incinerated upwards of 100 animals by flooding AnimaRytak II's tomb with magma (Sorry about that, BTW, the sarcophagus is still intact, but someone was already using it to store animals, so I just shoved as many more as I could into it, and dug to the volcano. No dwarf deaths). I've begun walling off the empty sections of the fort, but it's slow going. I'm also still decommissioning random and useless stockpiles all over the fort.

Also, while looking up what I've done so far, who's bright idea was it to hide about 10,000 corpses from view? My autodump doesn't dump hidden things.

Also also, what lever do I pull to open the front gate? I've cleaned off the bridge, the traps should work again, and weapon traps deal with enemies much better than cage traps.

I wouldn't bother opening the front door.  Nothing good comes from the outside world anymore so you may as well wall it off and leave the last dwarves in the world in their tomb
