PublicOpinion posted:DF actually does use those densities for muscle and fat (and 0.8 g/ml for liquid fat). Of course, the only time your dwarves would have liquid fat is when you're trying to burn it off. (With fire, for all you exercise nuts) Speaking of wrestling and size, there's no good way to up an adventurer's fat is there?

Fuligin posted:I came upon an encampment of sleeping goblins. Easily, I went from each to each, taking their heads as trophies. I bashed in the throat of their leader and watched him suffocate. When one awoke he ran screaming and calling for help from his comrades, helpless to stop me as I killed the rest. Finally, as I slowly approached him he tried to climb a tree. I slashed him open from behind and pulled him down by yanking on his intestines. We used to talk about how real Dwarf Fortress was. This is quite possibly Too loving Real.

Archonex posted:So if you take over a site, what can you do with it? Can you go full on fortress mode with it? Please tell me that's a thing now. Has anyone explored this? Even if it just means that all the items at a site belong to you, I'd love the opportunity to roll out a dragon "adventurer" and just take over a capital city and just hoard all the city's food and valuables in the throne room

Started as a dwarven adventurer, all the clothes in the fortress are listed as "large" Why are dwarfs making clothes that don't fit themselves?

PublicOpinion posted:I'd sort of forgotten about the move/combat speed split until my adventurer encountered a giant cheetah. It closed an entire screen's worth of distance in two ticks, and after getting wounded and scared it completely left visibility within a single tick. That is amazing and sounds like it's working exactly as intended.

Yeah, Adamantine is actually about as heavy as styrofoam as defined in the raws, but holds a wicked edge and is basically unbreakable. Incidentally, you DO want to give an adamantium hammer to your Hammerer: They'll love it for the value of the material but any hammerings (I.E corporal punishments) they have to perform will be as effective as a wiffle bat.

ninjewtsu posted:if you catch a vampire in the act they'll become immediately hostile to your entire fort, i believe. so you can set up a trap, if you're confident in your military Considering that you would have to assign the vampire to a task in a specific room to set up that trap, I can't help but imagine a heavily armed intervention.  "Now Urist, we're all here because we love you." "You bloodbags plan to kill me!" "Love Hurts."

scamtank posted:Meph actually did just that! I'm pretty sure that he made some sort of a "spring of courage" 1x1 workshop with a siege gunner-specific reaction producing a brief puff of golden mist that made any dwarven inhalers fearless for quite some time See if it was me, I'd put that syndrome on ballista bolts instead, and have it take effect whenever the gunners touch it. I was able to do something similar for an adventurer and their sweat in the past. Helical Nightmares posted:Re: Boat chat Presumably that's what he means by implementing "floating". The crazy sonovabitch will probably cludge together an entire buoyancy system just to implement boats, so you can ply the ocean blue (or red, green, peuce...) in random boats made of featherwood, granite, leftover plump-helmet roasts...

Arrath posted:Lol Kruggsmash had a wandering monster hunter join, who started murdering his way through the caverns and is horrified at every death he causes. Krugg just set up a memorial for the guy, turns out he'd killed a dragon in worldgen and turned its talons into a crown. Then he shows up at Krugg's fort, dashed down into the caverns, then got merc'd by some random troglodytes. We only know this because his ghost started haunting the fort, whereupon a grave was made and the story of the dragon fight was carved into the tombstone. Never change DF

deep dish peat moss posted:Does the world size really 'matter' in this game? Like in Rimworld for example you can generate worlds that are 30%, 50%, or 100% size and (without mods) there's virtually no reason to go above 30% because you'll never travel more than 30% of the world away. It creates more/less Forgotten Beasts, with 12 on the low end and 867 on the high end https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:World_generation

sebmojo posted:For the gang tag I'm asking people to post a story about their fort because I love dwarf stories, doesn't have to be elaborate The only dwarf story I've got until getting home today is the bit of Expert Humor I wrote for Bronzestabbed, where the dwarf that represented me came to the fort with his wife and a pet keet to a vile biome with gas clouds that turned people into zombies. Somehow we both managed to run out into one of the 'vile murks' for a drink of water from the river and lived to tell about it. Sadly my dwarf dropped from the Overseer's notice until I booted up the save out of curiosity and found my dwarf had mysteriously been entombed in dirt near the fort entrance, with no apparent record of his death or accident where it might have occurred
