My city is 90% garbage dumps and the people demand more. This game needs Sim City type disasters to punish them.

Yea true, but I was hoping someone on Steam would have made volcanos or giant monsters by now.

There is lots of other good stuff on there though so maybe I'm greedy

It's a fun game. Making roads that aren't backed up 24/7 is hard though.

i want to play dwarf fortress, but the task of learning it is very daunting. can you recommend any tutorials or tutorial series?

It's really a lot less difficult than it seems. I mean, basically, hit ? in game. It'll give you overview of the keybinds.

You never directly tell a dwarf what to do: You specify what you'd like to have happen and the game sorts out who should do it if they can.

You 'designate' areas for various things by pressing 'd', it'll give you a list of things you can do.

This is useful for your initial mining; Designate a path into the mountain, and some rooms, then you have some workspace. Then you just build some workshops, beds, tables, chairs, place them and you have the first bits of a functioning fortress.

People exaggerate how difficult it is to understand. Now organizing a military, I'd just check the wiki to get the details on that, it's complicated.

I'd feel better with a tutorial, but I really appreciate the advice. Now the real question is, what's a good and pretty tileset? I want my things to look like things.

Scaly Haylie

If there's not a current tutorial I understand, I guess. But seriously, gimme tilesets

Yeah, you can pick it up at the DFFD. Which is now hosted on the dev's servers. http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=8936

Here's some tutorials: http://dwarffortresswiki.org/DF2014:Tutorials

Ah, to be a Hero... Keeping such company...
Get Prison Architect next time it's on sale. It's a neat twist on the whole management game when you can't trust your... uh... customers.

Setting up the perfect schedule to make high sec and protective custody dine at different times... making sure showers aren't full of angry inmates in the morning... having a some crazy rear end supervillain judo chop your armed guard and shotgun another even tho the armed guard was only there to specifically keep an eye on him...



Me when playing:

still in 'alpha' so bugs here and there but it's pretty much feature complete.

started watching captain_duck's tutorial series. things i know so far:

I love early access and have yet to be burned on it. Sunless Sea, Invisibles Inc, Kerbal (though I played that before it was on steam), Xenonauts. All great games. I try to carefully pick my projects, but I'm not averse to getting a raw deal, it's in the TOS for early access ('DO NOT BUY THIS Etcetera in most) so you should be aware of that and not mad if they can't deliver what they didn't promise.

Scaly Haylie

will a world stop generating on its own or do i have to finish it manually

What?? Aquifers rule. Free water! Only a pain when you have 2 acquifer layers in close proximity Z-level wise, makes plugging them difficult.
