it's the day. you downloaded the file, and, as a fool, think that you can drag drop copy paste and just, you know, play the game. you are a fool. it is not so simple. pride, shattered against the rock. tomorrow, you say. i'll figure it tomorrow. the weekend ends and you are still lost, a babe in the woods.

FreshCutFries posted:you still want to move to year 4? we can always open up for volunteers on year 3. naw i have it figured out, i just figured i'd narratarize the process so other folk who have no idea how the game works have an idea of what it's like when you are less experienced, and that figuring out both how to play, and the actual playing, are fun! i am gonna do another short text post about figuring out savefile transfers, and then get to the actual gameplay posts. part of not being super familiar with the game is that it takes me longer to do stuff, even with dwarf therapist and associated applications.

like all problems in life, the savefile issue was simpler than it seemed. obviously i just drop the folder into the savefile, right? i've transfered savefiles between emulators when i was trying to find a good n64 back in the day, and like, i don't know. this should be simple. so i do that. doesn't work. do some googling. can't figure out whats wrong. get a hunch. look at how my savefile folders are organized. look at how the imported save file is organized. it has one extra folder, before the actual folder that contains the folders and files i need. i copy the folder i need, paste it into the savefile folder, and voila, we are dwarf fortressing!

so my first move is to plan out the tavern. part of me wanted to put it as an outbuilding but well, this is my first real rodeo so carving it out of rock seems like it makes the most sense. hallway, pukerooms/bathrooms, main room, office, store room. okay so i unpaused, and i'm poking around with dwarf therapist to see if i can get someone mining out the tavern. and then! NEAT!

this thread is great, and im resisting the temptation to dust off the ol' dwarf therapist and strike the earth! but, instead, i could be persuaded to be named after a dwarf in the next migration. you could shorten it if you like, or i could just be d.e.cology the underground plump helmet farmer |

i say you name them based on crafting skills, military positions and special roles like doctors more likely stuff happens w/ them |
