If you give a dwarf one of the new roles (scholar or performer or whatever) will they still carry out whatever labours they have enabled?

Oh boy. How old can Humans get in DF? I had a wandering Human Crossbowman join my militia and after getting curious if Humans hated being caught in miasma (they do) I noticed that he's 94 years old. Also all my visitors ever do is engage with poetry and tales, I want some dancing in my tavern so how do I get it? I have an 8x8 clear space.

However, the effects of aging aren't really built in past childhood, so you won't see any skill or attribute degradation. Don't worry though, I'm sure that eventually this will be replaced by a system that tracks each creature's dietary habits, exercise level, and blood pressure, while also calculating telomere decay and DNA methylation at each tick for a more realistic aging experience.

Haha, so an undead invasion promptly stalled when the necromancer raised a couple of Giant Kangaroos as skeletons and his living retinue of a couple of Speardwarves and Hammergoblins attacked the newly raised creatures. Doesn't appear to have triggered an invasion loyalty cascade but it's still pretty good that they're all just milling around now and crushing whatever gets raised.

I keep getting moody dwarves stuck on fruit picking ladders. A google search is getting hits on this issue but it seems to be from bay12's private bug tracker. If the other people complaining about this bug are right it's also causing my significant FPS drop. Is there a workaround to this or do I wait for this idiot to dehydrate?

 loving hell I just finished a bedroom wing. Couple Questions: How many Z levels should a pit be to produce a pleasing Goblin gib explosion when they hit the floor at the bottom of it? and how do I get my idiot dwarfs to dump Goblins from a cage down a hole without these dipshits opening the cage and getting goblin'd

The arena mode is specifically adjusted for scientific shenanigans like this!! Assuming a normal, naked goblin and a normal, generic stone floor, you need 3 levels before you get injuries and 6-7 until body parts start getting crushed on impact. I say go for 15 levels and line the bottom with lead for good measure.

Don't forget to pipe in a magma drainage system so you can dispose of the rotting body parts and retrieve all their iron equipment.

 The little dances they do are adorable. Edit: This book is really good too, quote:Written on the item is a manual entitled The Mysteries of the Biography, authored by Iden Findcraft. It concerns the method of writing the history of a single individual. The writing is stunningly self-indulgent and it is depressing. Mu. fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Dec 30, 2015 |

Maybe because he falls onto another gobbo? But yeah the floor weight/density matters because of how fall damage is calculated. I usually pit things in groups of like 3-4 and the dwarves don't panic or freak out - if you're on the latest version you're going to have to wait until the 'dwarves won't chain/pit/cage sentient creatures' bug is fixed.

In this latest release, only one of my herbalist dwarves was too cowardly to jump down from a tree before he starved to death. Everyone else jumped once they saw the woodcutter coming. I had an inexplicable loyalty cascade. No idea what the origin was. It turned into a total bloodbath, so I ended up hard-quitting. No one was stressed or tantruming. Someone just started shooting and I couldn't even determine who -- the battle reports only showed that dwarves were being shot, not who was doing the shooting. Somehow it caused them to all recognize each other as enemies.

I think that dances break up because one of the participants has decided to do something else so instead of them leaving and the dance continuing on without them, the whole thing breaks up.

Let's see some photos of those current forts. This one's mine. Temple district to the east, food production to the north, craftsdwarves quarter to the south, and the royal sanctum to the west. I just got through with the temple area. The big temple with the massive dance floor area is the temple to the most popular god in the fort, the god of suicide. Their choice in deity has me a little worried, but if that's who they want to worship then who am I to stop them?

Also, loving christ an entire troupe of elven and goblin performers just moved in all at once. The new petition system is really cool. I have an actually pretty diverse mix of residents, and a lot of my military dwarves are petitioned mercenaries.

Are buildings destroyed by tanthruming dwarves automatically rebult? For some reason my version of DF (latest stable LNP) never properly zooms to a spot I want (strange moods, horrified, etc.) so I don't know what got destroyed.

Awww, this sucks. I should check my fort periodically then. I wish dwarven Paxil existed This fucker already has ten aluminum statues and an artifact bed in his room. Sorry dude, I don't have any albatross for you to eat. Still, surviving for 15 years is not bad for my first fort I think

3/4 of my fort got killed by a webbing, flying forgotten beast and then DF crashed without saving. I feel dirty. If it generates again, I guess I should gather all my military before attacking it instead of sending them to their deaths one hy one.
