#1: Put the Alarm Siren in the Military Garrison, it fits and is one buildings less.

#1: Keep the Alarm Siren seperate, I want to have it near my other levers.

#2: I have traded with Gnomes, build Artificer and Weather Control Station.

#2: I have NOT traded with Gnomes, did not have the chance to build their buildings.

You have to 'Create a New World' for most changes to take effect. This means you can't turn invades off or back on in an already existing fort. Any forts in that world will use whatever settings where in effect when the world was created.

I see, but i had invasions the first 5 years, then i toogled invaders, saved and now it seems all civilisations are in peace with me, no kobolds, no snatchers, no ambushes at all, so i think toogling invaders off changed it for me in a existing world, but its not changing this setting back to "normal", any idea?

That "invaders" setting is an ini setting from vanilla actually. It just toggles sieges, thieves, and ambushes on and off. You can turn it on/off any time. It's quite useful for megaprojects.

Yes i thought so, but all civilisations are PEACED, and after i toogled it back on they dont turn back to normal, i mean kobolds goblin civ beakwolfs and etc pp, that used to siege dont do shit anymore

may iam wrong or its just fucked up for me now

About embark points - try to delete everything from your embark list and see how many points you really have. I think it is just a simple problem of having items of different value on a predefined list. That's all

[zenerbufen]

I've noticed sometimes when I embark I will have a few points left over, other times it warns me I don't have enough. It is odd indeed.

@Durian, you might just have to wait?  maybe they have to get mad at you before they decide they don't like you enough to start another war with you? Have you tried initiating hostilities?

@Everyone
Per request I have set up a code repository for Masterwork over here

You will find; A wiki that you can use to discuss the mod internals and technical details, a Tracker that you can use to submit bugs (I will be entering several for meph), and a Mercurial repository of the help guides and raws for anyone who wants to dig in and help out.

i may try slaughtering next caravan, but how to gank on kobolds if they dont appear on yo map?!

Yes I delete the items, and then I find that I have 1380 or whatever. I think this is a MW problem, as I never have it with vanilla. Hard to imagine how, though.

Where is the gamelog.txt file?  I'm trying to get Soundsense to work, but I can't find the file anywhere. 

[tahujdt]

Hey, is it possible to get Jolly Bastion Tileset without having to turn on creature sprites?

[Srial]

Gamelog.txt is in the root dwarf fortress directory.  The tricky part that always catches me is the gamelog.txt file isn't created until DF has been started at least once.

So, start DF, then immediately quit at the menu and you should see it appear in the Dwarf Fortress directory.

Odd, the project is open to everyone, and when I tried to ad altaree I couldn't find the username... have you confirmed your e-mail? The site is working for me =\ I'll look into this more when I get home.

@jollybastion without sprites, yes you can. Copy \MasterworkDwarfFortress\Jolly\data\art\Phoebus_16x16.png into \dwarf fortress\data\art\

So, goblins have cut off access to my primary water source, and due to said goblins I'm now in great need of water for some dwarves who aren't in the best of health.

I've noticed I can "purify water from booze", which then gives me a bucket of clean water.  This is great, but how do I get my dwarves to tip it into my well/pond?  Will they eventually realise there are buckets that can be used (they haven't yet), or do I need to do something more than designate a pond zone?

In other matters, I'm also confirming that I also can't see the code repo, although I don't have an account on JavaForge.

[Werdna]

Hmm, I think the problem is that a Pond must be filled from a Water Source, which is by hand or well from an already existing tile of water.  The game probably doesn't recognize the already filled bucket of water as a water source unfortunately.  I don't think this is under Meph's control.

When I'm in that situation, I immediately order my miners to start sinking tunnels to locate the caverns, to locate underground lakes.  Once I discover a cavern with water, I route a tunnel directly over the underground lake and build a well over it.  Just be aware that the caverns are far more dangerous in Masterwork, so seal up unused openings into the cavern, and prepare to defend the ones you do use.  I've gotten massive troglodyte ambushes *very* early in the game - I think they may be triggered by cavern discovery, not wealth/pop like most invader races are.  YMMV!

The cheat method to gain water is to play with dfhack's "liquids" command.

On the other hand, a bucket of water should be given to the dwarf directly anyway, so you don't really need to put it in the pond in the first place...

If that works for both cleaning and watering dwarves, then I'm delighted to have buckets of water lying around.  I had one dwarf who kept wandering to the well and looking disappointed (with a "clean self" task), so I wasn't sure.

As it was, I ended up using the brewery to purify water from booze, then dfhack to drybuckets, and then added one unit of liquid to my well for each bucket dryed.  In this way I feel that I didn't completely cheat.

Thanks for the advice, ShadowLop and Werdna!

Is there a known graphical bug in Phoebus Tileset? When i find flux stone, the image of tile is white instead of correct image of flux. This problem doesn't occur in "normal" DF - only in Masterwork.
