Which reminds me that I need to download an old copy of MWDF and figure out how to transport "make full set of clothing/armor" over to a standard DF game. I should be able to manually add the reaction to an existing workshop, right?

Not in an ongoing world, but yeah, certainly. 0.42 actually increased the amount of default workshops that can accept custom reactions.

This is the gist of it. I'm sure this is easy enough to repurpose for whatever specific variations you like.

Do we know much about the grammar of dwarfish? Word order and antecedents and conjugations and so forth? I can't remember ever encountering it outside of naming.

Only insofar as it doesn't have any of those things in-game, unless Toady changed that with the last release. As far as I know all the Dwarf Fortress languages are totally uninflected, but otherwise ciphers of English.

I guess elf traders have access to divine materials for instrument crafting now. That's a neat bug.

IIRC he has explicitly said he's not planning on doing this.

I once created a fort with a "functioning sewer system". Every level of the fort actually being two levels is kind of a pain in the rear end. Needless to say it ended when floodgate confusion flooded all of the lower floors with sewage.

Yeah I got some rustling silk stringed instrument component from them, but I can't build the instrument. So far I don't think any other civ has brought an interesting material like that.

Can you have multiple civs from the same race sending trade caravans to you?

I feel like Today could fairly easily do this with "pipes" that work the same was as roads, or at least metal mine cart rails. Have a "spigot" piece that spews a small amount of water if it has water access, and automatically turns off after it spews 1 or 2 tiles of water. Do we know why this isn't planned? It's obviously not squeamishness or a lack of pedantry.

I wish I had the actual quote but it was something along the lines of sewage simulation being gross, unfun and unnecessary (Dwarf Fortress). What he really needs to make pipes for is making multi-z level pumps possible.

Yeah, I guess I had only thought of the before of getting water there, not the after of getting poop out. I can only imagine the resulting horror that accurate pooping would wreak on the overworld. Still, I feel like modeling excrement output and decay wouldn't be that bad compared to, say, modeling the process of burning to death, or having your gangrenous limb slowly destroy your entire body.

Theoretically, pipes could simplify things and reduce the FPS hit from having water flowing through your fortress. You could do away with simulating every single tile of water and the flow in/out of it, and just treat the whole pipe as one entity (similar to how power is handled).

Realistically though....

I actually think pipes could be done in a way that significantly improve fps rates for water and magma works projects. Rather than having the all the fiddly calculations for every square liquid, a lot of that could be hand waved away and just replaced by a required pressure per unit pipe length or something.

Edit: What Apoffys said

Yeah but you know toady is instead going to not only model each tile of pipe still but then also calculate viscosity of liquid and flow rate and blockages and whatnot.

And of course you can't have pipes and plumbing without a totally reworked ceramics system.

Which requires porcelain creation to be fully details, and while he's doing that he should take a look at glass, because of the overlap in use-cases. Any job worth doing should be done right so he might as well implement glass optics now, so that means reworking the whole lighting system, which, let's be honest, really needed a revamp anyway.

And if he's doing pipes and lighting he might as well line up some sort of electrical wire system involving copper etchings...

Toady should add in more night creatures. I want one that's basically the opposite of a vampire. Instead of going in to suck the blood out of innocents they sneak in to give vigilante justice to people who hurt someone else.
