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

I abandoned destroying the goblin tower, however, I tried adventuring for the first time. It sure is FUN :v:

[QUOTE=Suicide Requiem;16565517]Build a ramp next to a wall, build floor, remove the ramp.[/QUOTE] I can only build two tiles from wall. I cannot build a complete roof. [editline]12:46AM[/editline] Perhaps if I build the floor/roof first, and then build from that.

Is there anyway to level out upward slopes?

[QUOTE=Achilles123;16571678]Is there anyway to level out upward slopes?[/QUOTE] Just mine it, it'll create a wall (ie. cliff). [quote]Natural slopes can be mined out via the designation menu using the Remove Up Stairs/Ramps selection (d -> z, using the ingame interface).[/quote] How can I destroy a downward staircase (with no upward staircase because I messed up).

My metal smith went insane and killed himself, oh shi tantrum spiral! Had to abandon and I went back in adventure mode. and gathered some of the stuff. Once I hauled what I could back to town I sold most of it and completed my set of iron plate armor... I move slow now.

Ah, back from vacation. I'll continue my 200 dwarf fort tommorow. Hopefully i'll have a siege that actually endangers my fort.

[QUOTE=Wakka V2;16571368]I can only build two tiles from wall. I cannot build a complete roof.[/QUOTE] Eh what? NO. You can build a ramp next to a wall and build complete roof. [editline]08:14AM[/editline] [QUOTE=rincewind;16569001]You could always give the town a wall and pond (the town IS the pond) as an offering like what was done here.

There is no way to kill them or to order them to go somewhere, they are just sitting in my main temple and eating all my food, temporary solution is to fobrid-unforbid the food stockpile door but that requires alot micro management and doesn't always help. HALP MEH!!

Can someone link me to that alternative 3d generator to 3dwarf?

Why can't you smooth dwarf-made (hurr) walls/floors?

It's just something you can't do, you can however make block walls to make them a bit better.

What's the point of ant colonies? Seriously, they do bugger all.

I created the adventurer Urist Agaksiknug! Urist Anusdwelling! :v:

Call me stupid but how do you get it to show everything on the map like that?

Is it white rock or a snowy mountain?

:o You reckon the new update is coming close to completion?

[QUOTE=HeadlessChicken;16582230]:o You reckon the new update is coming close to completion?[/QUOTE] The relase might (maybe, possibly, hopefully, don'ttakemywordforitcauseifimwrongtheworldwillhateme-y) come out by the end of the year. And that is, quite literally the tip of the iceberg. There is a whole bunch of new features.

But there's no way to tell when it may be completed because some of the features take months to complete and some take hours. So, if he's done all the big stuff, it might be out by the end of the year. But if there are a lot of big features left it'll probably take until Febuary or something like that.

Currently, i started a human fort in a elven forest retreat, took down all the trees in the region, and one of my dwarves went beserk and killed two elf children, the elf's still don't care jack shit and are friendly with me :v: [editline]12:53PM[/editline] But yeah, housing takes up a lot of time.

When a barrel has no food in it can it be reused, please say yes because I have no wood and I want to survive until I can dig out a whole layer of my 3x3 starting area :D 3 legendary miners in 2 seasons.
