40d:Density

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
This article is about an older version of DF.

Density is a material property that, along with the volume of the object, affects the weight of an object made from the material.

In this version, density is measured in kg/m3, but item volumes are measured in imaginary units.
