Don't ask me how, but I 'discovered' an additional game Age while testing world generation parameters. I'm not interested enough to devote much time to researching this, but anyone wanting to know more can use the code below to generate a world which initializes during this period. It is unformatted and cluttered, but as this is a infrequently-viewed specialist page I see little consequence to leaving it here. Significantly, the world has a minimum elevation of 80 and an x-variance of 150, meaning lots of mountains.. and dragons? Tasty. [[User:Rep|Rep]] 10:24, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Stopping at years other than 1050

I think that's a worldgen option now: the history of the world or something. Can someone edit the article to show this? -SirAaronIII 19:46, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

"Golden Age" "Twilight Age" "Age of Myth" what do these mean?

I was searching for information on how the worldgen determines what "age" it is in the world, and my search came up with only this stub of a segment on this page stating that "the history of the world during world generation is divided into several different ages, depending on the condition of the world during that time." Is there no further information about this? I really want to know how worldgen determines the various ages.

I think 40d has info on that. but basicly an Age is a term used to describe a period of history ex: the Bronze Age, when humanity mostly used bronze for metal. In DF Ages are named by how many megabeasts still live ex: Age of Myth is when most megabeasts are still alive, and by how many intelegent creatures are still alive ex: Twilight Age civilizations are dying out.

"All worlds start in the Age of Myths"

This isn't true if you generate a world that doesn't have any mega beasts.

The wet season has begun

I started playing a game in v0.31.20 and embarked on a map with a good mountain biome and a tropical broadleaf forrest. While watching the seasons pass, I saw messages like "The wet season has begun" , "The dry season has begun", "Winter has arrived on the calendar" or "Autumn has arrived on the calendar". This seemed new to me, since I don't recall seeing this in any of my 40d games. Can anyone confirm if this is a new set of messages? -Coaldiamond 207.96.13.12

Draconic Age

Don't ask me how, but I 'discovered' an additional game Age while testing world generation parameters. I'm not interested enough to devote much time to researching this, but anyone wanting to know more can use the code below to generate a world which initializes during this period. It is cluttered, but as this is a infrequently-viewed specialist page I see little consequence to leaving it here. Significantly, the world has a minimum elevation of 80 and an x-variance of 150, meaning lots of mountains.. and dragons? Tasty. Rep 10:24, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
