40d Talk:Gravity
People have already shown that when a wooden building is undermined, it collapses into logs and dead humans. Just noting. -- Alfador 14:38, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
It's Probably a good idea for someone to look into falling damage related dismemberment. Seriously, it's awesome, I had my dwarves build a 12 story tall tower with a diving board, when they all hit the ground I paused it and looked 4 or 5 levels up and saw a dwarf head. I'd confirm it myself, but I don't have ready access to dwarf fortress.
Keep it
Bouchart marked this page for deletion, but I think we should keep it. It has some interesting videos and explains some things that cave-ins do not. It allows for experimentation on things that gravity affects other than cave-ins; what can happen when a creature falls and what liquids do, etc.. DF updates might make structures collapse when something falls on them, so I think this page definitely has some potential as DF moves along alpha, there's no sense deleting it as gravity is a part of Dwarf Fortress after all.
Though I think we could move the page under the title of "Falling", or something else that might be a bigger umbrella for articles to be written under.--Richards 16:36, 14 April 2008 (EDT)
- I second keeping it, but leave it as the current article name. Falling is what gravity causes. Perhaps a Falling article could be made in addition to explain
WTF-XPLODE??what causes a body to explode on impact after a fall from great heights. ;) --Edward 17:55, 14 April 2008 (EDT)
