Editing 40d:Wealth

Your fortress's total '''Created Wealth''' is visible on the {{k|z}} - status screen once you have a [[bookkeeper]] with at least novice [[appraiser]] [[skill]]. All objects with any value (including mined-out areas, [[bridge]]s, engravings and just about every kind of created good) will be included in the total. [[Artifacts]] are usually one of the largest influences of fortress wealth. Artifacts made of precious resources and heavily [[decoration|decorated]] can easily be worth thrice the value of your fortress in the early years.

Forbidden items are not part of your wealth. Thus, if you forbid a object, its value is subtracted from your wealth. That value will be re-added once you claim the item.

Wealth influences or triggers various game features, such as [[goblin]] [[siege]]s, the arrival of [[noble]]s, the number, and probably time of arrival{{verify}}, of [[immigration|immigrants]].

-Items made off-site are not counted in your total fortress wealth.  Their value is listed under '''Imported Wealth.''' Items made on-site, but later [[trading|traded]], are immediately subtracted from your '''Created Wealth''', and transfers to '''Exported Wealth''' once the trading party successfully leaves.
+Forbidden items are not part of your wealth. Thus, if you forbid a object, its value is subtracted from your wealth. That value will be re-added once you claim the item.
-While [[prepared meal]]s can be quite valuable and it's to a much lesser extent possible to amass wealth from booze, unless forbidden, these items tend to get consumed by your gluttonous dwarves at an alarming rate, reducing your wealth. Among other factors, the value of a meal makes it more desirable, too. This loss is to be expected, and on the plus side quality food does provide a source of [[thought|happy thoughts]].

-== Building fortress wealth==
-Good ways to building wealth include:
-* Checking for promising [[stone layers]] when selecting your [[location]].
-* Searching for and using valuable [[metal]]s (e.g. gold, aluminium, or platinum) early on
-* Choosing proficient dwarves on [[Your_first_fortress#Skills|embark]]; experienced dwarves work faster, and make higher quality goods.
-* Using more valuable, but still abundant stone (e.g. [[obsidian]] or [[flux]]) for "everyday items"
-* Smoothing and detailing walls
-* Check [[item value]] for clues on what items are valuable and how processing boosts wealth
-* Build a [[steel]] [[armor]] industry
-* [[Encrust]]ing/decorating objects with highly skilled craftdwarves
-* decorating specifically ''imported'' objects and goblin loot; those will be substracted from the import figure and added to their respective division of your created wealth
-* Assisting dwarves in strange moods, especially leaving high value gems, giant cave spider silk, and adamantine/aluminum/platinum for decorations nearby

-:<small>''Note: It is technically possible to have your wealth go high enough to loop back to an extremely low number (-2 billion or so) because it simply hit the highest value the game-counter could go and passed it.  This maximum value is '''extremely''' high, and so it is unlikely to cause a problem unless you heavily [[cheating|modify]] the game code or files in that direction.''</small>
