Not sure if its because I am use to masterwork or this has just been streamlined but world generation seems much faster so far.

NM I just tried to create a large world and generation slowed to a crawl after about 100 years.

TBH after using the Phoebus tileset for so long this new version made me realize I actually don't mind the ASCII now because I know what and where everything "should" be :shrug:

okay so I figure I can probably survive without tilesets for now, but isn't there an option in the init files or something to change to square tiled ASCII? None of this oblong poo poo for me

Something to do with this? (from release notes)

"Some experiments with procedural items, though the new demon-type sites are still quite un-fun now. The knowledge on the slab at the bottom can be used, but it is probably not worth the trouble."

I actually made a adventurer with the goal of wiping out a civilization once. Trained up some still,s became a vampire, found a necromancer tower and learned how to make zombies, and then I spent like a couple real world hours trying to kill everybody in a village before realizing that that people wouldn't stop spawning, because of exactly that.

Hm. With the way things keep going when you're not actually right there now, maybe if I found a way to become something hostile to all life and that makes more of itself on its own...

Ha ha, I thought there was a bunch of leaves growing into the dirt, but he actually went ahead and gave trees roots.

Conversing in adventure mode is pretty nice since you just need to type in whatever keyword. Like old adventure games, you converse by going WEATHER, RUMORS, CHANGE, TROUBLE, LOCATION ad infininum.

also man up you tileset babbies

Just play the game without the tileset, it's really not that bad and you get to brag to people about being more hardcore than them.
