#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.

Crowns aren't helmets, they're finished goods.

ow... thanks. So I got confused from a special helm of drows maybe ?

I take the occasion for a similar question: when dwarves goes in a strange mood, they could do also items of the MOD ? and only dwarven, right ?

I got an iridium kite shield yesterday I managed to close the mooder in the workshop and surround him with items I wanted (crystal glass tree, rare silk, olivine (the favored color of my castle) etc).

Yes and No. The mod has wearable crowns that count as helmets, but your moody dwarf made a crown-craft, not a crown-helm. ^^

Dwarves moods make all kinds of items, anything goes, not just dwarven.

...well that's confusing!

This is true. I wish I could delete the original crafted crown, but its hardcoded. But people wanted wearable crowns at some point, so I added them. Maybe I'd call them slightly diffrerent, like "dwarven crown" or something. But since one is a craft and the other an armor they shouldnt show up in the same menus/stockpiles ...

Well it's weird because in z-stock I don't find it neither in crowns or headwear. And "it menaces with spikes" exactly like the armor, that I weared.

Hope the armr it's not cursed or something, I putted it on my best warrior !

However you must be right and this must be the decorative crown, because graphically I see a crown like in vanilla, and your items are mosty with the "general goods" graphic.

How do I understand how good is a weapon/armor ? only by it's price ? Iridium shield is 379200 but armor / crown only 4080 / 54000

I also have doubts about size, even reading the wiki... generally, I should always sell or melt small and large items right ?

[Putnam]

Anything can menace with spikes.

Artifact armor/weapon quality is about the same as any other armor/weapon quality. Bone armor is pretty much useless.

Armor can't be cursed... for now :V

[Nokao]

Ok ! And the fact that I made, of 20 artifacts, 12 useless crafts like wood-leather bracialets, earring and rings is normal right ?

The skill used by the mood (and therefore item type) depends on the profession skill levels of the dwarf.  Quantitative info here

... so if you have more crafters than smiths, you're more likely to get crafts

Why are so many people starting to ask vanilla things again? ^^

Sorry Meph, it's because we thing it's mainly MW problem if things don't work

My fortress is coming good, probably finished, but also getting too easy sieges ... only once siege from caverns, batmens. Powned.

Next time I'm trying Kobolds Maybe I'll wait for your update.

When I randomly generate creatures from the launcher, the entities that are generated are kind of broken. They end up with things like [ETHIC:[STONE_PREF]] and a ton of untagged lines that don't do anything (no square brackets, no context), like:
NATURE
VENGEANCE
WAR
etc.

Just posting this again since it seems to have been missed.

[Gamerlord]

Dammit! I'm playing Orc Fortress and for some reason all my orcs have decided to sneak everywhere! Now they move incredibly slowly andconstantly train ambushing! What the hell is going on?

[Meph]

@jordan: Didnt miss it, I posted it  March 09, 2013 in the fitting thread... havent heard from talvieno yet.

@gamerlord: Ask in the orc thread.

[Gamerlord]

The Orc thread isn't updated as much as this one.
