stray bunny kills 4 dogs
(there is a copy of this at http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010_Talk:Known_bugs_and_issues)
Not sure if it's a bug, but I had one of my (baby, tame) rabbits go rogue and take out a pack of (adult, tame) stray dogs awaiting training in my new (7 day old) fortress. I'm not sure if it was a bug or not.
I'm still trying to parse the reports to find out who started it. There was only one wild animal (a buck rabbit), on the surface, and I hadn't reached any caverns yet... Not sure if it's related.
I only realized what was going on when I got the first "stray dog bled to death" notice, and the other three repeated the act before I honestly believed they were fighting the bunny. The bunny, btw, has a dented paw and a bruised mouth, but otherwise seems fine. Just to be sure, his inventory showed that he wasn't carrying a switchblade.
Any clue why this happened, or where I should look to see? - jaz 22:33, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
What DF stuff I've done lately
in game
With the new version, I've scrapped my old "Crash Landed" version and am building anew. I learned a lot, but there's a lot of changes to be made, and it seems like it'll be easier just to start from scratch. - jaz 1 March 2011
I still wish I could "polute" the water sources. Sometimes you get a salt water aquifer. Wish you could have salt water rivers and such, too... or other polutants. Or specify that certain buildings need to be built near water the way that a magma smelter can only be build over magma... And then specify that they polute the water source when used.
- I'm told I can edit the saved games and make the waters be salty. - jaz 1 March 2011
Hmmm... maybe make a new substance called "poluted water" and have it be a by-product? I've got slag already, don't see why poluted water should be any harder, though it might not flow properly. And give it a negative sale value. "I'll pay you to take this stuff away." Just some things I'm thinking about....
- Considering just using the filth tags already in the game. Might be easier. Then again, might not.
Part of my "world" is that the native plants and animals are far easier to process for metals than the ores are... in fact, I'm thinking of limiting the ores quite heavily. Maybe make them /all/ deep? Fun. - jaz 22:45, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
For my middling game, made tons of dyes in lots of different colours. Put them all in a new plant that only grows in magma regions, doesn't have seeds and spontaniously combusts upon becoming a shrubbery, just to avoid ... dealing with it. Then I added in some reactions to mix dye colours that takes place in the dye shop. Some reactions require water to work, and others, booze! Presto, dyes in almost every colour, that has some level of realism, if not a lot. Strangely, the dwarven traders occasionally bring me some of the new dyes.
Also, added in "feral" and "rabid" ... "templates" is the right word, I guess. Like "giant" can be applied to "panda" to get "giant panda"... now I occasionally get feral pigs and rabid dogs. Awesome! Especially FUN when you don't realise that your kitty has been bitten by the swarm of rabid rats it was attempting to decimate, and that said rats are now infesting your booze stockpile. Realisticly, kitten should then also become rabid, but instead, it just dies. As do thirsty dorfs.
Wiki
Uhm... nothing. Can't remember (and can't be bothered looking up) my log-in info, so I'm cheating the sigs. - jaz 00:28, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Still cheating the sigs... - jaz 1 March 2011
Ever feel like a little fish in a really big pond?
And that maybe the pond is filled with something other than clear crystal water?
I am wading through some of the forums at www.bay12games.com, trying not to duplicate threads as I make suggestions (or, in at least one case, point out that there is a perfectly good way of dealing with the problem they want dealt with without them suggesting something that would mess up my problem even more, and better yet, their solution is already functional in the game). My word, there is a lot of ... stuff... to wade through. Even if I find a thread that talks about something similar to what I'm thinking, it may be a good ten pages long... and if I don't want to sound like a "me too!" who didn't even bother to read what they're "me too!"ing, then... argh... And when that's /already/ a duplicate thread. Headache. And then it turns out that none of them address the subtle vision I see... or insist on making it too complicated to actually impliment...
And I have to wonder, if it's this difficult for me, wading through it all, how badly fare the Great Toad and his tri-toed sibling? Because I'm sure I'm not looking at even a tenth of the ... stuff... that they are. (And no, I don't mean "<redacted>" because it's worthless, but rather because there's just so much of it that it intimidates me and I thus feel the need to call it dirty words. I accept my common ways.)
So, Yargh, I say. Yargh! I will take my ineffective self to dinner, and maybe tomorrow will wade through more "suggestions" in the hopes of finding a gem, a clever mind who's desires match my own (and who was smart enough to phrase it in a way that other people actually understand).
