#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 love your raw organization Meph it got to be the best I've seen, It make the editing so much easier

[Arbinire]

the to do list is looking promising, Meph.  Wish I had some more Ideas off the top of my head to toss your way

[Ishar]

EDIT: oh, and for those who care: MY TO DO LIST

Bless dwarves with NOT_LIVING, to avoid their corpses being reanimated.

Wouldn't that affect childbirth, lifespan and things like that?

Is this sarcasm ? I know I did sort them once, but that was... 7 versions ago, they are a mess by now.

Out of curiosity, do clothes from silver/gold/iridium succumb to worn?

That is an interesting question. I unfortunatly cannot answer it, since I havent played extensivly since 34.

Bloodsteel and Ironbone could indeed be replaced with steel and iron, the same I do with ironbark and steeloak. But elves still have their steeloak-wood armor and weapons, and I want drow to have the evil materials. They should pose an alternative. If they were only parts of the boneyard, yes, I would make them optional, but since the drow use them as well I do intent to keep them in the game. I will work on reducing flavor items a bit and make them optional though.

@cheating chicken: Yes, indeed it does help. These will all be fixed for the next release, thanks a lot.

About sauropods: I can post the raws for them, but I dont see anything wrong with it one a first glance. So, here you go, have fun with it. There is not even a speed value assigned, so they should have the default value of 1000.

EDIT: Wiki says: NOT_LIVING : Cannot be raised from the dead. I dont think it affects anything else but the tag Fit for reanimation, the rest it ignores. Opposed to life... now that is one I wouldnt want my dwarves to have.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

- Add more "secret" dwarves, possibly harmless ones, to cause paranoia.

Ha love the "She's a Witch burn her!" fact might make those spies,bloodbeast, etc harder to find

NOT_LIVING
AFAIK
doesn't affect Childbirth I can confim that with my automations from

Project Clockwerks

As for Lifespan, I think MAXAGE still has hold in that field (never tested, as my inorganic creatures don't have lifespans other hen horrible dismemberment)

[Gatallorsith]

Just passing by to say I like the work you've done A LOT, especially how you made the actual DF better by optimising here and there (that's exactly what this game needed and still needs
I'm still in the "documenting phase" so I'll comment on the actual playthrough later. In the meantime, all my thumbs up.

PS: Isn't DFhack compatible?

[Corai]

Gatall, it has DFhack built in.

[Gatallorsith]

XD ah wonderful, just like the newb pack. Have yet to click on "play"

[jesusmod]

From what I've seen so far, making a hunter a magmamancer at the Hall always means the end of a fort. It always ends with dragonfire coated corpses being hauled from the lvl 3 caverns being prepared for consumption by melting dwarves. It ends badly for everyone. Also, I checked the raws on that dragonfire and holy shit, fixed temp at 90,000?! I know that attack's supposed to be devastating, but isn't it a bit overkill if everytime that magmamancer can't break the grip of a giant cockroach's pincer on his left ear, he has to kill every living thing on the 3x3 map area he's on? Because that dragonfire DUPLICATES in water...

[Meph]

@jesusmod: Well, they need a negative side, otherwise mages are too overpowered. But I did not know that dragonfire would stay in water, it should evaporade, and not leave pools/splatters. But yeah, these guys are highly unstable, but I did mention that now and then.

@gatallorsith: The code of my GUI is based on the Lazy Newb Pack, it is no wonder it looks alike.

[Corai]

Odd, my problem has dissipated in newer versions, maybe my CPU just couldnt handle it.

[Meph]

Good to hear that.

I just updated the first post a bit, made it look nicer and added some new screenshots. If other people have nice screens, please feel free to post them. I also added the to-do list next to the changelog at the bottom, and made a new poll, since most people voted for: Oh, now I am sad... its your own fault

[SeigeOps]

Just a minor thing, the hot keys for building a fountain and placing a totem are the same (alt+o). Hardly worth noting, but I just wanted to get it out there. Also a request: can we have blast furnaces also batch smelt ores? Or is that too much?

In other news I was previously drowning in mastiffs and peckts(sp?). Had to cage them all and sell em to the next caravan. Got me ~14000 db's and 20 fps in exchange.

[azrael300]

what does weave magic mean?

[ShoesandHats]

I notice that in the raws (I forget where) it has a cheat section. How do you activate it?
