Dwarf Fortress - Mom, why are those Elves eating each other? - Games

[QUOTE=Appox;16418910]This is stupid don't listen to this guy. You need to create a garbage dump zone, create the zone with 'i', then select garbage dump with 'd'. All item's you then select to dump will be chucked into the garbage dump tile.[/QUOTE] I figured this out by myself, and after a while I reclaim them so they can be reused.

Is there any way to undo my digging selection?

[QUOTE=Suicide Requiem;16439255]Bull-fucking-shit, i make moats with channels on the surface all the time.[/QUOTE] Well, when I hit d, h, then make a line on the surface, nothing turns yellow like it normally does when I make channels, and my dwarf never tries digging it. What version do you have?

I've made a farming plot but the farmer ain't doing anything with it.

[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;16439736]h is channel not d.[/QUOTE] He said d,h which means designations -> channels.

[QUOTE=Ouendanation;16439475]Well, when I hit d, h, then make a line on the surface, nothing turns yellow like it normally does when I make channels, and my dwarf never tries digging it. What version do you have?[/QUOTE] Errr, latest? No idea what is wrong with your game.

[QUOTE=CommanderPT;16439782]I have some plump thingys and some pigtails, how do I specify what to plant? I can't find anything in the wiki.[/QUOTE] Hit q, scroll over the plot till it's blinking, use + and - to scroll through the plants, select plump helmets.

In before lock. [editline]06:59PM[/editline] And thanks!

[QUOTE=CommanderPT;16439875]In before lock.[/QUOTE] What.

It says it's awaiting construction. So I can't.

Autocap is now 2000, bitte.

The thread is over 1000 posts, shouldn't it get locked? [editline]07:00PM[/editline] Oh, lol..

No, the autocap is 2000, as Alx said. [editline]07:01PM[/editline] Jesus christ 7 comments in a minute, burst of life.

[QUOTE=CommanderPT;16439889]It says it's awaiting construction. So I can't.[/QUOTE] If a farmplot is awaiting construction then it's not even a plot yet. You need to make sure you have someone with farming enabled.

[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;16439931]If a farmplot is awaiting construction then it's not even a plot yet. You need to make sure you have someing with farming enabled.[/QUOTE] Something with farming or someone? I have two farmers doing nothing.

someone, It was a typo. It should work if you have laborers with it enabled, maybe their eating/attending a party/ sleeping?

[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;16439982]someone, It was a typo. It should work if you have laborers with it enabled, maybe their eating/attending a party/ sleeping?[/QUOTE] I doubt that, my fort is in it's early stages and I need more food before the immigrants come and rape the place.

Suspend construction, wait a while, then un-suspend.

[QUOTE=HALP Cat;16440036]Suspend construction, wait a while, then un-suspend.[/QUOTE] Incase that doesn't work, do the fishermen fish automaticly? I have this pond next to my fort so that's why I am wondering. Again, the wiki didn't tell me how to fish, just info about it. [editline]07:15PM[/editline] I just made a food stockpile and see if that changes things.

fishermen fish automatically yes.

Do the dwarves take food from the stockpile automatically, because otherwise I am prepared for the immigrant storm.

It's rare that you ever need to manually move things from a stockpile.

[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;16440342]It's rare that you ever need to manually move things from a stockpile.[/QUOTE] Perfect, BRING ON THE IMMIGRANTS! Last time my population of 33 died instantly when the immigrants came. There were only two left when more immigrants came. :v:

Hey guys how do I make my military go somewhere/kill someone without setting a new meeting point?

Stationing them places is the only way to tell them to move (besides patrolling) if the thing you want to kill isn't in their line of sight.

Good news I found a closer magma pool, bad news, theres at least 20 magma men in it so i walled it off. Oh and theres shit loads of copper in there, fucking magma men.

Cause an intentional cave-in over that place. Easy way to get rid of all possible imps and magma men and shit.

To late my base was overrun by mountain gnomes that drank all my booze and ate all my food and seeds. Now i'm back with my demon adventurer andI can't wear any cloths or armor because my size is 16 and humans are 7.
