Hey there! I'm a physicist and journalist interested in better documenting the modding/internal side of Dwarf Fortress and revising articles with better information.

Game data research:

Symbols corresponding to Sphere#Sphere tokens and other hardcoded linkages (spirited biomes, taverns) Data on poetic form naming is incomplete, just drawing from what I have access to.

To do this, I coded a language file with 7 blank prefixes, 7 suffixes for each symbol ("Fire1","Fire2", etc), and 1000 suffixes (ie: "_978") not assigned to any symbol. Then I set each entity to use GEN_DIVINE (just for efficiency) and made a megabeast for each sphere and made a large world. For repeated trials, I would add more blank prefixes and blank suffixes to decrease the likelihood of words appearing outside their symbol. Compare 40d Talk:Sphere.

I put together the first (non-insider) music mod using the Premium music raws - definitely not my art work, haha, just a port of Simon's classic tracks. I'd love to see more music and sound packs released, especially with fan soundtracks.
