Shameless necro here - don't want to see a project like this dying.

As self-apointed necro police, i'll allow it.

Hi guys. I'm fiddling with this because I'd like to show it off in a webcast I'm doing with O'Reilly on Friday. Thing is, while I can enter letters and digits I'm not able to get any maths to happen, or anything else. I suspect that these aren't yet features - but I could also be completely wrong - which is likely. Can someone guide me?

I'm looking at this  world, trying to figure out how the "display" cells work.

I see that on level 131, there are microline Floor hatches, but there seems to be nothing on levels 130(below) or 132 (above).

So how do the display cells get "refilled" ?

[MagmaMcFry]

What do you mean "refilled"? If you open a floor hatch, it doesn't break, it just turns invisible. Closing the floor hatch will make it show again.

[mstram]

OIC now

I ASSumed it was fluid filling in the cells making the pattern

So, here's a thought...  The guy attempting to create a sentient AI within DF stopped reporting on his progress without warning... Perhaps he succeeded?

[dwarf_reform]

It probably mechanically retrofitted him with dwarfly enhancements and now he's down 120 z-levels under his house setting up a magma industry they'll then use to create robo-dwarves to conquer the world with.. If they're anything like the real DF they'll show up in heavy numbers and while all our drawbridges are up..

.. You guys do have rl drawbridges set up already, don't you??

[BloodBeard]

I, BloodBeard am well.

This ones apologies for not posting. I have been...sick.

Cough, cough.

See?

Do not worry.

[Dwarf4Explosives]

This is superbly awesome. I've got to ask, though, did you ever get the mastermind game working?

[BloodBeard]

In the actual fort no. I was in the planning stages when I got distracted by another game or something and the FPS was just too bad for me to have the courage to work on it.

Minecart logic has allowed me to help with that problem if I were to ever pick this up again. I even went into the planning stages and made up a mock version using (N)otes that was a quarter the size of this, but it still uses the same number of linkages (which is the real pain). I haven't played DF in forever and wasn't ready to start again so I never went through with it. I'd probably have to downgrade to 0.34.11 if I wanted to solve the FPS problem from the looks of things  (never played the current version)

[Dwarf4Explosives]

From what I've heard, the newest version has horrible FPS anyway, making it unplayable after about 5 years.

Too bad to hear you probably won't be working on it, though.

[Amperzand]

Yeah... Well, I'm glad to hear you probably didn't build Dwarven Skynet.
