#dwarffortress

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

I shouldn't have complained about artifact buckets. I had to start a new fort (The old one had a corpse in the well, and I didn't have any way to drain it)

The first three artifacts are all earrings.

I have some levers set up to drain the well, though

I haven't done an updated #Introduction in a while so,

I'm Lewie. I mostly post about whatever my current hyper fixation is. At the moment it's #DwarfFortress, #BaldursGate3 #Rimworld and #Gunpla.

I will routinely post varying flavours of metal music recommendations. Usually #Deathcore and #Metalcore or whatever else takes my fancy.

And about #Fallout. I'm a simp for Fallout.

I also post about my #Cat, Luci, my physical/mental health and work.

I believe the summary of the loyalty cascade in the iceberg is wrong. the classic loyalty cascade bug would make two entities that all of your dwarves belong to, e.g. the fortress and the civilisation, enemy to one another. the result of this is that every single dwarf is suddenly a mortal enemy of every other dwarf, because you ordered the military to kill a cursed lycanthrope. I've lost my most promising glacial fortresses to this and the bloodbath was exceedingly entertaining to see.

in true Tarn fashion the current version intentionally didn't fix the bug but rather nerfed it into a manageable civil war between factions, so you may still be able to recover your fortress if you can keep the opposite dwarves away from one another until the hostilities cease.

ok what do I go with? glacier fort for the challenge? haven't tried a glacier fort in forever. but a lot of the challenge is just elements being removed so the game is poorer in a sense. with the new plant growth graphics, I kinda want to go to a highly forested area. I've been meaning to try an evil biome and harvest sliver barbs to make like, a goth industry vegan fortress, because the procedural icons with black dye and quality indicators are some top quality drip. But every time I try an evil embark I get dead plants rather than evil plants, and as far as I know, there's no way to know at embark generation site where you can farm slivers….

📢 #LiveStream announcement: #DwarfFortress and The Dimensions of Dawning

We got our first migration wave of dwarfs which means our industry has picked up the pace a bit. We found a cave layer but it's the second cave layer, so we'll still need to fine the first and third. The trading caravan is due to arrive in a couple of months. We've yet to find any ores to fashion armor and weapons out of... yet.
