[QUOTE=Robbobin;15846117]Hmm... reinstalling DF... gonna give it another shot. I got the basics and managed to make a sustainable fort... but then it got boring.[/QUOTE] Got any sieges?

I tried that wall idea so that the dwarf wouldn't stand on the wrong side while digging, but he still stood on the wrong side.. [editline]05:17PM[/editline] HOLY SHIT. My first wave of migrants EVER and it was over 20! Is that a lot? Because I have a shit load of dwarfs now! Awesome, I can get so much more shit done now!

[QUOTE=Skwee;15846569]I tried that wall idea so that the dwarf wouldn't stand on the wrong side while digging, but he still stood on the wrong side..[/QUOTE] They CAN'T stand on top of it. You did it wrong. Place wall. Suspend construction. Dig out whatever you're digging. Cancel wall.

[QUOTE=Xera;15847054]They CAN'T stand on top of it. You did it wrong. Place wall. Suspend construction. Dig out whatever you're digging. Cancel wall.[/QUOTE] I did that. Didn't work.

[QUOTE=Skwee;15847165]I did that. Didn't work.[/QUOTE] Well it does work. Unless there's nowhere else they can stand they won't stand on top of the wall.

I nickname all my dwarfs with numbers lol 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 010 etc.. [editline]05:36PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Xera;15847211]Well it does work. Unless there's nowhere else they can stand they won't stand on top of the wall.[/QUOTE] Yeah, that's what I thought when I set the ground to restricted traffic area, and then set where I wanted him to stand to high traffic area. He decided to stand in the restricted area, and that mistake was the end of him.. [editline]06:15PM[/editline] Can water flow down diagonally like this: (Side view representation, not top down.)

It was a wonderful year, and with summer we started construction of a new dining room to accommodate our abundance of migrants. We were a peaceful settlement, and had good relations with the other dwarves and even the elven caravan that came through. The orcs, however, were not interested in trade. One by one, they ripped apart every dwarf, goat, and dog. Not even the kittens were spared. The sheriff, Stinthad, valiantly tried to save his own skin by hiding in the partially-finished dining room, and his reward was a five-minute chase across the countryside by a hungry orc, culminating in a voluntary drowning. I love this game.

my jewelcrafter keeps saying i don't have any rough red beryl to cut, but there are 5 of them sitting in the room next to him in the gem stockpile. What the fuck. Then he died because of thirst...

How come no one ever answers any of my questions.. I still haven't been answered 2 of my questions. Possibly 3.

[QUOTE=Skwee;15846174]Uhh, one of my dwarfs has been resting for like, 6 months now, or what I would estimate to be 6 months, it was 2 seasons... And his injury is still on yellow, where it started at.. How do I heal him??[/QUOTE] It sometimes takes long for them to recover from an injury, I had a dwarf with a yellow wound on one of his arms and it took him a year to recover. Some injuries like damage to the spine can't be recovered. I had another with an injured lung that never healed, after a year in bed he got up and started working again, but he fainted every 5 seconds. Poor guy.

[img]http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/6263/diagonalwater.png[/img][/QUOTE] I'm not sure about that one, but I don't think it can flow that way, maybe if it's from a top down view.

[QUOTE=Xera;15849082]No.[/QUOTE] Okay cool.

And his injury is still on yellow, where it started at.. How do I heal him??[/QUOTE] Injuries take a very long time to heal. In one of my fortresses it took 2 years for one of my champions' broken left hand to heal. Internal wounds never heal. In the next version you'll be able to use splints and stuff like that.

i played this for like 20 minutes and have no fucking idea what is goin on.

[QUOTE=psot;15849651]i played this for like 20 minutes and have no fucking idea what is goin on.[/QUOTE] Read lots of tutorials and play more. The overwhelmed what-the-fuck-am-I-doing feeling means you're doing it right.

Trying to get the orcs to fight me. For some reason they aren't evil.

I am about to open up this waterway.. Hope it works. lol. [editline]09:35PM[/editline] It worked, now I have wells in my fortress! Yay.

I was trying to channel a river into my fortress and in digging a channel for a well I tapped an aquifer, negating the need for the river altogether. Now to get irrigation started...

Downloading now, after reading all 14 fucking parts of that one tutorial. I'm hoping I retained enough basic information to dick around for an hour. I'm also hoping I can get the Dystopian Rhetoric graphics pack working on Mac. EDIT: [img]http://img.skitch.com/20090704-1ub389r8hinuy14tqjny2t8j3s.jpg[/img] Is this really running through historical ages just for backstory?

Can anyone direct me to a good tileset? I look at the ASCII graphics and have [I][B]no fucking clue[/B][/I] what's going on.

[QUOTE=demonguard;15851639] Is this really running through historical ages just for backstory?[/QUOTE] Yes.

Alright let's do this!

[QUOTE=Skwee;15851881]Wow your computer is really slow...[/QUOTE] I'm running it in a Crossover bottle (WINE), I suppose it's supposed to be faster than this.

-snip- Nevermind, I found out tah tI have to use the keypad +/-.

Yeah, world generation takes about 20 seconds tops, normally. Maybe 30ish.
