Is there an easy way to see which dwarves have the fewest social links? [editline]19th January 2013[/editline] [img]http://i.imgur.com/01kax5U.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/rJ9QxVC.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/dnT8AFL.png[/img] Winter arrives.

Winter Report: part holy- [img]http://i.imgur.com/o7tSSAt.png[/img] Oh wait, the beasts here just sit around. I forgot. [img]http://i.imgur.com/2Ergge4.png[/img] It would be useless to put my 40 strong military on alert since it would eat away at training, etc. Anyway, I am planning to do something great for this fort: [img]http://i.imgur.com/RAOfaWP.png[/img] I decided to decide which dwarves died by chance, instead of by any features they might have. I may be doing something a bit immoral, but I am not going to participate in eugenics! All the animals are going down there. It will be crowded and slow before the end. But I know this will help.
At least ensure that the miners, farmers and previous leaders live.
As I gave the kill list to my subordnates, I reflected upon my fate and the future. What have I done? -Moved the dining hall and kitchen to much larger rooms in the underfort. -Began moving bedrooms to the underfort -Dismantled surface production centers -Created a lava death machine (though machine is too kind a word) -Stole a bunch of useless crap from Elves -Reduced the population by a bit -Fought off a few monsters What left is there to do? -Create a production center close to the main hall and kitchen and living areas -Finish furnishing underfort bedrooms -Dam the river to keep water from leaking into the fort -Mine the Adamantine I began to extract -Finish ARMOK and the huge trench? Not sure why though. -Move the farms and stockpiles to the underfort. Use underwater lakes to fertilize the ground. As I thought about all this, and the multitudes that were surely dying, I got a couple of notifications from an underling. The first warning was for a freak cave-in that let the lava out prematurely, before the floodgates were finished, from the head of the Fort Police. The second warning was from a distressed and sweaty miner with Adamantine, they heard screams. As I started to issue commands to deal with these pressing issues, the world stopped, and I suddenly found myself in my old flat at the Mountainhome. It was dusty. It was Spring. Armok have mercy on Treatywhispers.

Wait a minute here, since when did I sign up for another turn?
[QUOTE=Pokey McFork;39319002]Funnily enough, I was waiting for a artifact set of mechanisms to build the ARMOK's lever.[/QUOTE] oops it may or may not be covered in lava close to the death room good luck whoever is after me!
-snip, everything's sorted, Doom won't be doing another.- On another note, we need more people.
So I opened the fort Oh god what is this. I'm aiming to get a turn done tonight/ Over the weekend But I've got Exams next week.
[QUOTE=Liem;39352662]So I opened the fort Oh god what is this. I'm aiming to get a turn done tonight/ Over the weekend But I've got Exams next week.[/QUOTE] All good, we can wait if you need to
Holy fuck I'm getting 11 FPS This is going to be hard
The upcoming lava purge will help
Sorry the update is taking so long I have no idea what is happening in this fort
Okay So my Exams are finished. So I can really get started on a turn now but it might take awhile at 11-12fps, been away from DF for quite awhile, gotta find that lava switch
[QUOTE=Liem;39419675]Okay So my Exams are finished. So I can really get started on a turn now but it might take awhile at 11-12fps, been away from DF for quite awhile, gotta find that lava switch[/QUOTE] It is right next to the lava room. I know it is counter intuitive in terms of getting the lever pulled quickly, but you will not get confused as to where it is. (its around -120).
Sorry guys I really have no idea how to run this fort. I am not close to skilled enough to run this fort. If anyone else wants to take this, take it
The fort is beyond most humans now. I was barely able to manage it. But that is the fun of it! You can probably gain all the skills you will ever need in DF by trying, trying again in managing this hellfort
I'll keep the save around, but I doubt I'll be able to crank out turns in good time
This thing is dying anyway. If it's tough even for the most active people in the DF thread, there's no hope. If you can, make a good ending though.
Flood it with lava and start over with a lower pop cap? y/n?
Also in somewhere that isn't dull as hell. No offence, we managed to keep it going, but a fort needs some proper conflict to make people want to keep on playing.
Herm Order a kill squad to take out the next dwarven caravan Let the following Civil war take the fort down in a blaze of glory? [editline]5th February 2013[/editline] That does still happen right?

I'll get to it tomorrow. Fucking up a fortress That I can do
[QUOTE=Liem;39488956]I'll get to it tomorrow. Fucking up a fortress That I can do[/QUOTE] Make sure to continue the "kill everyone plan" with the use of the newest burrow and the lava room at the bottom of the world. Make Adamantine armor and weapons for the Civil War.
So it's been two weeks urists, what now ?
Sorry, I kinda gave up after I couldn't find anything and the game started running at like 2fps. Person11 I have no idea how you made it through a turn I assume the fort just kinda died. [editline]25th February 2013[/editline] We could start a new one, maybe. I could do an early turn, before FPS death
how about we lower the pop-cap and try something like that so fps death never happens/is massively postponed?
If we're going to start a new fort, we should probably do a new thread. By the way, how many dwarves did the fort have?
