− | + | Alcohol is the favored drink of [[dwarves]]; a dwarf will drink booze an average of four times per [[calendar|season]], and without it they will soon become [[thought|unhappy]]. Thoughts imply that dwarves like to have some variety in what they drink. Many dwarves have a [[preferences|favorite drink]], selected at first randomly from all possible alcoholic beverages, but this might change once dwarves have been exposed to other beverages. {{verify}} | |
− | |||
− | + | Note that setting booze on [[fire]] will ''not'' cause it to explode (nor has it ever done so) - however, exposing it to high [[temperature]]s '''will''' cause it to boil away (and the wooden [[barrel]]s themselves can also be set on fire). | |
− | == | + | ==Acquiring Alcohol for your Dwarves== |
− | + | There are three methods of acquiring alcohol, only two of which are available after embark. | |
+ | *At [[embark]], alcohol may be purchased with embark points. | ||
+ | *[[Trading|Traders]] that visit the fortress will often have alcohol of some sort to sell. | ||
+ | *The third and most reliable method requires a [[brewer]], a [[still]], and a working [[farm plot]]. Most [[crops]] can be brewed into valuable alcohol. | ||
+ | **In a pinch you can also [[Plant gathering|gather plants]] and brew them at a [[still]] in the same way you would with [[crops]]. | ||
+ | **Mead does not require any plants to be made, though it does require honey which is made through [[beekeeping industry|beekeeping]]. | ||
− | + | ==Variety== | |
+ | :''He has been tired of drinking the same old booze lately.'' | ||
− | + | Variety in booze keeps away unhappy thoughts. | |
+ | |||
+ | If a dwarf drinks the same old booze over and over, he will eventually get a bad thought from 'drinking the same old booze lately.', unless that dwarf has a preference for that type of booze. A dwarf who likes a type of booze will never get tired of drinking it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Lack of variety causes bad thoughts, but will never cause a dwarf to stop drinking. Even after years of drinking a booze they don't like, a dwarf will never prefer water or dying of thirst to drinking the same old booze. You can therefore keep a fortress alive on only one type of booze so long as you have enough good thoughts to offset the bad thought from lack of booze variety. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Consequences of a Sober Fortress== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Any creature with the [ALCOHOL_DEPENDENT] [[creature token|token]], dwarves included, will suffer performance penalties as a result of being deprived of alcohol. This manifests as a loss of [[speed]] in almost every activity, including basic movement. For this reason, a steady supply of alcohol is highly recommended for any attempts at a productive fort (unless you're a cruel overlord). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dwarves will also wait longer before drinking from a non-alcoholic water source, resulting in negative [[thought]]s from thirst. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Alcohol withdrawal appears in the dwarf's thoughts and preferences as "starting to work slowly due to its scarcity" after 3 months, "really wants a drink" after 6 months, "has gone without a drink for far, far too long" after 9 months, and finally "can't even remember the last time he/she had some" after an entire year. | ||
