#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.

I don't know if this is reported but leather industry isn't working for me. Specifically the "boil leather in oil" function. The dwarf will grab a tough hide and repeatedly apply oil to it till there's no oil left, then cancel the job and leave.

Also, a lot of what's good about Masterwork is cleaning up boring, petty micromanagement and slowdown problems and adding exciting higher level problems. I'd be careful about adding in more petty micromanagement problems by making bins and barrels an issue all over again. Just seems to be problems for the sake of problems.

I think this is a bug: In adv. mode human Blowguners(Musketeers) hcan't use their muskeets, because the bullets don't exist

+1 to the boil leather thing (happens all the time) = BUG

liking the ABS thing hugo..... although... if you can do it via Raws, why hasn't toady?

Thanks, it's one of the  many things I'm proud of. And I withheld it from the other modders since I made it but I felt like sharing it now

And I think Toady tryed but it failed, Bone tissues have STRUCTUAL which I think toady had intended would have affected LIMBs but it didn't, it only affected GRASP and STAND body parts (broken hand, foot)

Through some science I found that NERVOUS effects child/connected bodyparts. Found this out since I had a two dwarves, one broken his spine (upperbody) and the other borken her lower spine (lowerbody)

The male dwarf (spine injury) suffocated (spine is connected to the upperbody thus lungs, causing suffocation)
The female dwarf (lower spine) was only crippled (spine connected to lowerbody and child bodyparts where the legs, etc)

SO long story short-er I decided to create the ABS

Training my Militia Commander, who was given my artifact steel Long sword, to a Legendary Swordsdwarf, using the essence of a red dragon (impaled on a Spear trap ), made him develop some strange fighting habits....


Are drakes supposed to die that easily? I'm talking about the non-fire-breathing pet drakes here. Goblins seem to take them out incredibly fast, even when trained as war drakes.



Wait a minute.....

Outstanding job, sir! Thank you!

Bug: Tombs make adv. mode crash...

[Meph]

Awesome story Two minor things I like to add: Coal should "only" burn for 9 months, dont know about coal constructions though. And drakes most certainly do not breathe fire. Just made double sure before I posted that and looked it up in the raws. No firebreath. ^^

@olopi: Thanks about the tombs.  Is noted. Any idea why, what is the last entry in the gamelog ?

I will have a look a tthe leather reaction again, Might be a reaction class gone wrong.

Drakes should be pets for their scales, dont know how good they are in combat, I did not test them in fortress mode in fights.

They seem as good as dogs but a little tougher. And they seem to breed faster.

I don't know if that needs to be like that but crafting a bone Twohander with dingo spine, bone and lether made me a hand gun...

About the bins,

I'd be careful about adding in more petty micromanagement problems by making bins and barrels an issue all over again. Just seems to be problems for the sake of problems.

this is a good point. micromanagement shouldn't be required for something so essential to fortress life. using blocks pushes that to some degree but not much.

I would also vote to leave it as it is.

[bombzero]

well heres my idea.

stone bins/barrels being easy removes the need for wood even more, so if you want ot nerf stone bin making, you must simply nerf every other item carved from stone as well! simple. [/sarcasm]

so either say "fuck it, wood sucks" and stick with the current method, or make tons of stone stuff require tedious micro of block production...

Ah, the fun of adventure mode. The wanderers friend reaction for twohanders links to a weapon not included in the raws, Df cant find it, takes random weapon. (acutally, this could be used for nice reactions, "make random weapon" ha. Good find)

About bins and blocks:
I personally see the stonecutter as a sort of upgraded mason. But currently the stonecutter works very well all alone. If I make blocks needed for many reactions in it, then people have to run the mason, and then the stonecutter next to it. For me, this makes sense. The stonecutter is of course no replacement for the mason, but almost for the carpenter. The three Bs. Beds, Bins, Barrels. They should be a bit harder to make then wooden ones. Not easier.

PS: @bombzero: Damn you are in a bad mood these last days. Three mason running "make blocks" on repeat is not tedious micromanagement.

Other things:
A Necro slab( Life and Death) didn't work, probably because i was a Frost giant
Frost giants should not lay ambushes, or be easyer to kill, i lost 5 good adventurers to them, because everything(even Magic) just glances away
