It is, but it's not like these are actually used for much. The simulation of body parts aren't hooked up to a whole lot of things right now. Well, they are compared to other games of course, but you could still argue that it's more detailed than the game needs right now. Especially for vermin.

google, wikipedia, libgen, your local library, and museums if you're in Europe.
search for history of armor, metalsmithing and warfare

Also search the internet for archived threads from /k/ where KM (tripfag) is posting.

/dfg/ your quality has lowered drastically, I hope you get a new release soon to recuperate the high quality.

>>186816517
thanks toady
In the name of all of /dfg/ anons, I thank you for your words

>>186816517
it's not the game itself, it's the changing userbase of /dfg/. the general will remain shit after the new release (as usual, it will become 1000% shittier and faster for about a month after the release, before slowly settling down again).

it any case, the general has attracted the worst kind of newcomers lately. people who take everything personally because they aren't used to imageboard culture, people who constantly ask about the tourney because that's the only reason they came here, people who are from 4chan but from a low-quality board (hence all the forced memes and shitposting), etc etc. /dfg/ is probably ruined forever at this point.

She got her foot stabbed off by a fucking gob. Should I retire her from service in this human hamlet? Or keep her around? She's still pretty fast (and she also might get attacked if she's just on her own).

What is /dfg/s opinion on quantum stockpiles?

>>186864628
unnecessary unless you're the kind of retard who likes stockpiling rocks.

just mass hide them through the stocks screen, and your fort will look clean enough.

>>186864628
when used with discretion they're fine.
being unable to fit anything more than a single ring in a tile(2x2x3 meter space) and being able to fit a million rings in a tile are equally retarded.

>>186864628
I use them for stone early on just so I don't have to unforbid a bunch of rocks to be used for building later after I hollow out my fort.

>>186864628
Sometimes I use them for wood stockpile when playing aboveground, or it just takes too much place

>>186865237
why would you forbid the stones in the first place?

just hide them. your dorfs can still use them just fine.

>>186865646
Storing stone is retarded so you just make garbage dumps for stone exclusively and then unforbid the stones in the dump as needed.

>>186864628
It's an exploit, and on top of that straight out of the "how to make an optimized, ugly fortress" guidebook. You have fucking hundreds of thousands of tiles available and no time limit whatsoever, so why powergame?

>>186865719
>no time limit whatsoever

this nigga dumb

>>186865687
dumping the stones sounds equally retarded.

why would you waste labour on dumping the stones when you can just mass hide them through the stocks screen? like I said, it won't stop your dorfs from using them. they'll be there and they'll be useful, but you don't have to see them.

>>186865827
Because keeping a stockpile near the workshops makes it a lot quicker
>use wheelbarrow to bring stone to stockpile
>mason/furnace operator uses it right there

If you hide every stone on the map, they'll go all the way 100 z-levels down to grab that one ore, then carry it all the way back up very slowly. They won't use wheelbarrows to carry it to the workshop.
Quantum stockpiles for stones makes it so you don't have your stockpile filled with 100 sandstone while the rest is lying around randomly, again causing your dwarves to take a long ass time to carry it to the workshop when they need it

>>186868018
I didn't say that I didn't use stone stockpiles at all, I just said that it was retarded to use them as a means of getting rid of the stones.

hiding the stone doesn't stop me from having a small stone stockpile near my mason's shop.

>>186868223
Then unless you make a dozen stone stockpiles next to your workshops, you're gonna run into the situation where it's filled with things you don't want
>Smelt magnetite
>Whoops, looks like your ore stockpile has 500 sphalerite
Or maybe you want bauxite blocks, but your entire stone stockpile is filled with rock salt

>>186869186
are you seriously retarded?

>force haulers to constantly drag every single stone or ore to the quantum pile
or
>assign a few smaller specialised piles near your workshops

only reason to see the former as "less of a bother" is if you by "bother" mean micromanagement, rather than efficiency. then you'll ask why it takes forever to get anything done in the game.

>>186869708
>Well the only stone you really need is flux
actually, the only stone you need is towertech ore

Is there a dfhack script that change announcements,? I cant find it. I dont get job cancellation announcement, and building cancellation dont say the reason.

>>186870534
>constantly drag
>wheelbarrows wheelbarrows wheelbarrows
Also implying that it's a big deal. It takes a minute to collect all the new stone mined out, not constantly.
Your whole argument was to "just hide it"
But obviously if you want it to be "efficient" you need to do a lot more than just hide the stone.

>>186870534
You're assuming hiding the stone doesn't make it any less usable when it prevents the stone from being properly managed in the first place. Even if I can't see it there are still piles of stone in random places instead of in my workbench.

>>186870875
well, what do you think sounds more efficient:
>drag ALL stones
or
>drag about 10-15 stones to each specialised stockpile, with about 3-5 stockpiles in total

why are you so eager to defend wasting labour?

>>186871028
like I said, dorfs will use the stones even when they're hidden. they will become visible when hauled, so you may not have noticed it because of that.

>Even if I can't see it there are still piles of stone in random places instead of in my workbench.
that's why I'm telling you to keep small specialised stockpiles. if there is a pile and an item that goes into the pile, someone will haul it there, assuming they have the proper labour activated and are otherwise unoccupied.

>>186871217
You're really missing the entire point of this. How about you just keep doing what you do and I'll just keep doing what I do and we can both think we're crazy.

>>186869267

The moderators on the bugtracker closed it after deciding that it was caused by using dfhack's open-legends. I think they're wrong, but it's a really rare bug and hard to demonstrate.
