Reposting since the old one died

I delivered tons of books including the secrets to life and death in my adventurer's backpack to my retired fort.

After establishing the fort and fighting off enemies for 4 hours now I finally began building a library and realized that the dwarfs won't take out the books out of the backpack. Any ideas on how to get them out of there? They were all manually claimed

Not sure if you already know this, but there's a music genre/scene called vaporwave which basically consists of just remixing 80s shit. It was semi-popular with the kids 2012-2013 iirc. Japanese characters, along with pink and purple colors, feature heavily in the aesthetic.

I am guessing OP pic is a variant on this origin image:

My question: I've only recently started playing, I haven't made it very far. Is experiencing shit like the last OP image (I'm reposting here) possible in DF, or is it just glorified artwork?

Yes, but it would be several multitudes of hell and lag to manage such a clusterfuck of a fortress, with multiple passageways up and down all over.

I'm trying to get an adventurer down into Hell through a fortress that I built previously. In that fortress, I ended up making just one entrance to Hell and it requires falling a few z-levels. Couldn't get any dwarves to go down there. I managed to find the fortress with an adventurer, got down to the lowest up/down staircase, and couldn't use it, so I tried just jumping down and fell 3 or 4 z-levels to my death. Is there any way to safely get down there so I can get killed by demons instead?

>>126396028
Yes.
Fly down there.
Play as a [thing that flies]man.

>>126395110
He put it on his back, all the books are still inside.

There must be a way.

>>126396634
Obviously, you should set fire to the backpack until all the books drop out, then douse it with water.

>>126396634

>>126396706
How do I start a controlled fire?

>>126396006

At first, all the dwarves were helping bring shit to my master stockpile, but now only one of them is.

Is it because the rest of the shit is too heavy and needs a wheelbarrow? Some of that shit is light, it's cloth and whatnot; and I know the stockpile can accept everything.

So I have a custom tileset adapted from an older version of myne.

>>126396778
>>126396706
Ok did both.
Placed them between my magma and water pumps, stopped after lots of books including necro and vault ones popped out.
Once the fire was off no one took the books so I dumped the backpack with some books forbidden. The dwarfs took the books that escaped the backpack to the dump with the backpack.. Doesn't seem like anyone is going to take them now that I undumped and claimed everything again.

Any other creative ideas?

>>126399742
Just add a ~50% or so transparent layer to the relevant tiles.

>>126399993
I'm not sure, but I think one reaction creates a pair of whatever clothes are worn in pairs.

So just have four workshops permanently running, creating the following articles:
>upper bodywear(which ones are available will change between different civs)
>lower bodywear
>socks
>shoes

That's all a dorf needs not to feel naked. Try just to have four dedicated clothiers, in order to maximise quality and make your dorfs happier.

In order to have a steady supply of clothes, just make sure to have accesss to a cavern with spiders, and try to keep a few looms as close to the cavern as possible, in order to produce silk as fast as possible. The process of spinning thread out of silk, and subsequently turning the thread into cloth, is entirely automatic.

>>126399993
Yea. There's actually a really good way to do this I just found two days ago after using rapist for years. Open up Dwarf Therapist, go to Windows at the top, and enable Equipment Overview.

It'll give you a list of whats worn. You can expand it to say the specific types (GCS silk versus cave spider silk, boar leather bear leather badger leather and so on) if you really need it, but it can compactly and quickly tell you how worn the items your dwarves are wearing currently are.

It won't tell you of any you've already made and stockpiled, but if you're like me and hate building junk just to create hauling jobs and lag, its super useful. Just wait until a reasonable amount of dorfs need something then queue up a few with the manager and forget it.

>>126400852

Is there a way to make the game pause when random baddies show up?

What's the best way to get soil into your fortress for farms?

Should I dig into a soil hillside and have the farms on the first level of the fortress, or is there some way I can "transplant" soil tiles so I can make nice and neat 10x10 farm plots ?

>savannah/rocky waste embark very few trees
>pop the caverns long time ago but don't breach it
>finally need some of that fireproof wood for reasons and let my dwarves in

bye bye all that wood.

>>126402689
You can grow on mud perfectly fine, and mud is created when a tile gets wet.

So dig out your farm area then intentionally flood it. Super simple stuff. Keep the flooding to the minimum required to cover every tile you want so you don't have to waste time waiting for it to evaporate.

Oh and make sure to build some doors and forbid them while the irrigation is in progress.

Post food

>>126402689
What I usually do is dig down into the stone, then from the central staircase, dig back up into the soil; this way, the farms are easily accessible to residents without being as open to enemies. If you want to farm on stone, irrigate the desired area with either a water source or by designating a pond in activity zones (make sure it's set to pond and not pit); once the water evaporates (don't put too much in), farmable mud will be left behind.

You could also farm in a cavern, if you're feeling mildly adventurous.

my animal storage is filling up with troglodytes and for some reason I can't pit them into my kill drop. There's too fucking many of them, how do I get rid of them?

Does anyone else absolutely fucking hate power?

The only way I find it remotely palatable is to exploit the living fuck out of it. I think I'm going to mod it right now to make it less painful.

>>126403129
>The depiction is stunningly self-indulgent

>>126402887

Mud is created by getting stone wet? Interesting.

I'm like three hours new into the game, how would I go about flooding something? Find a lake or stream and channel a line to right above where I want it to flood?

The room would look like this, right? Red is the forbidden door and blue is the hole to the surface where the water would come crashing down from.

>>126398739

My bad.

How would I stop the flow of water? Just stick a wall in the stream when its flooded enough?

>>126405550
They won't build a wall if there's water; you'll want a floodgate linked to a lever, so you'll need to make mechanisms as well as the floodgate. Channel out the waterway except the last tile keeping the water out (works best to channel from the layer above to avoid drowning the miners), place the floodgate, and link it to a lever that's built somewhere safe, like the dining room. Let the water through to the floodgate once it's set up, then pull the lever as needed.

Anyone found a workaround for this?

You could however build a constructed floor, flood the area with magma, cool it to obsidian with water, and then muddy the surface of the obsidian and you could grow biome plants/lumber that way.

The wereelephant girl who was the last original member of my fortress pre-annihilation is now dead, thanks to a eight-legged crocodile FB that has more recently moved on to clearing out my first cavern's giant cave spiders. Had another troll come in from the second cavern via a garbage dump route into a convenient magma tube, but like every other troll I've had, he was much more interested in smashing buildings and unfinished constructions than dwarves; my imprisoned lady troll still hasn't done a damn thing to that door she's stuck next to.

Nice, I remember when I learned you can't add barrels and have them work right (clarification: they can sometimes work exactly as you would hope, but I have no clue how to make this happen consistently, and I know most of the structures under df.global in 40.24 by heart) because I had a big feeder pile with the QSP that took barrels on the side and I noticed they kept hauling barrels back into the feeder, so I turned on fastdwarf and everyone in the fort zoomed in to play musical chairs with the stockpiles.

It was funny, but annoying, similar problem emerges if you put cabinets in overlapping bedrooms for more than two dorfs, so everyone starts to spam haul/remove/re-haul everything they own into each cabinet, forever.

Ok something weird happened. After a titan attacked i noticed that for some reason there were a few visitors holed up underwater at the edge of the map. I just watched as a bard spawned onto the map underwater, then walked out of the river and into my fortress.

So how do i convince the remaining visitors to leave the river/how do i get my dwarves to safely pick up the equipment from the one who died? Its been a full season and they are still chilling there.

Diagnosing repeat bug. I can't even count how many times Toady has "fixed" doctors/hospitals. Deconstruct the traction bench to break the cycle.

Pumps. You need to reduce the water level where they're standing for long enough that they can find a safe path out. I would just forbid and forget the gear, you're more likely to get more people stuck or drowned than to actually recover any items.

>>126420250
Fair enough. It looks like his injuries have been tended to anyway, and they're still cleaning the wounds, so the dwarf might be able to survive in the bench indefinitely if your beards still bring jt food and water. And you might be able to train up a whole stable of diagnosers while you're at it, if you're inclined to do so.
My tism can't stand to have ongoing bugginess if I can avoid it, so I always kick the malingerers out of bed when I catch it happening.

Even that shit sounds interesting. The furthest I've gotten has been to dig levels down, and try to get a farm going.

I've spent like 4 hours swipping and swapping out graphics packs, please fucking kill me I just need one that lets me grasp the information.

Spacefox looks okay, I'm just gonna try to get used to this one.

What is the first set of things I should be doing when I embark? My pattern for the last eight forts (kill me) has been :

>tunnel into side of a hill / mountain
>cut down trees and harvest plants around entrance
>create a big room for use as a to-be farm
>try to mitigate intense PTSD that 4 of my dwarves are idling on the surface and probably being eaten by werepigeons

How do you guys start?

>>126420870
>3miners, 1 a mason
>woodcutter/carpenter
>Whatever I need on the embark

>>126420326
damn. I was really looking forward to recovering the iron whip that one of them dropped. I guess that poor bard will have to learn marine life.

>>126420870
1 mark trees within a 22x22 area for chopping. Fuck food I have plenty of food. Dig an entrance and stairs a few levels down. I'm going to assume at this point I'm not embarking on an aquifer - if I was my first year would be mostly above the surface and you don't care.

2 dig out a 11x11 room for farms, build a carpenters workshop and crank out 7 beds, 7 tables, and 7 chairs. Get a food stockpile and my cats inside the farm area. Add 6 2x5 farms. Tell em to do whatever is in season, mostly plump helmets.

3 dig out bedrooms in the rock so they can be smoothed and engraved later. Dig out a workshop area for my carpenter to move underground in and a mason shop can be built

4 crank out shit like no tomorrow, get a well up as fast as I can and a shitty, temporary wall. Get a mechanic shop up so I can raise those bridges. Don't forget to put a roof up.

5 get stills up, start putting up regular ass production stuff like crafts workshops, looms, leatherworkers, and so on up

>>126420870
Depends on the embark. I usually bring enough food and booze that I don't have to worry about farming the first year. I set up a temporary "fort" on the surface with the bare minimums for a few industries if the embark allows, while digging/building my entry hall. Idle dwarves gather plants or build walls. Military up and running by the time the first migrants arrive.
If I'm in more hostile surroundings I'll get underground faster and focus on setting up defenses, but that usually leaves some dwarves idle, especially if there's an aquifer to get to the other side of.

>>126421270
(if you're wondering why 22x22 and 11x11 as this anon suggested, shift+a direction jumps the cursor 11 tiles, so [d]esignating [d]igging from here to shift+down+right will give an 11x11 block dug out)

>>126415681
>digging your fort in the dirt
Elves didn't make you a hobbit, anon.

>>126420870

I start with 3 miners, a woodcutter/carpenter, a stonecrafter, a farmer/brewer, and a mason.

Miners mine out underground farmland and the farmer goes to work growing plump helmets and turning them into alcohol.

Then they mine out a small quarry with space for two workshops. Mason goes to work making furniture and the stonecrafter goes to work making pots for food storage. Meanwhile the carpenter cuts down trees and makes beds and other essential wooden stuff.

The miners then mine out the residential apartments and a basic tavern for constructed furniture to end up in. Once they have the basic rooms of the fortress mined out, they mine straight down to reach the caverns and get fungus. Then they wall up the entrance into the caverns for safety. Then we move animals to underground pastures.

After that if I don't have any migrants yet I take a few miners and the carpenter and start laying some basic defenses. Usually I have a small corridor leading into my fort that is blocked off with traps and a bridge. Now I'm experimenting with moats.

Then I mine out some ores and do what I can to get smelting and blacksmithing going so I can outfit a basic militia when the migrants arrive.

>>126421959
Why are animals so important? I usually just butcher them right away.

>>126422091
>embark has featherwood, whip vines, and sunberries
i feel like this one is going somewhere

>>126422091
>>126422404
fuck didnt mean to quote my bad

>>126422091

I've lost almost all interest in animals after my last game. They just don't breed and grow up fast enough. I'll stick with dogs and turkeys though. Dogs seem like they could be fun and turkeys actually lay a shitload of eggs and breed like crazy.

I don't think either of them actually need pasture but mining to the caverns is still useful for finding ores and knowing how deep I can go.

>>126422091
This. one time I ran a massive, 3-level giraffe farm under the side of a hill, it was fun but I wouldn't do it again. food is so easy to come by through hunting/fishing/farming/trading

>>126420326

Are large weapons like two handed swords, pikes, and great axes still bugged or can i finally use them?

>>126424560
>>126424608

Yeah I'll arrange them based on the impassable tiles, it's easy to tell which are impassable when constructing them.

Does having items stockpiled on the floor impact the movement of dwarves?

>>126424604
That recruits the real deal

>>126424717
no, not at all. it annoys me to watch dwarves walk over stuff so I always try to build paths around them, and I think others do the same, but mechanically there's no disadvantage that I know of

Guys, I can't tell what graphics packs are actually updated for 42.03. Is there a list anywhere?

Is it possible to make foreign weapons outside of a mood yet?

I only ask because I could have sworn I saw something saying you could in certain circumstances.

>>126423198
No. You can try digging a staircase into the riverbank beside them, but if they aren't using the adjacent ramps they probably won't use the stairs either. It's a pathing bug caused by being in the water, related (or identical)to the one that causes fbs to stop moving in cavern lakes. They aren't even trying to path into your fort anymore. On the bright side, the fact that they haven't all drowned means that they're probably damn good swimmers by now.

Does anybody have some good tales from the old Dwarven Economy days?

Drinking mounds lack booze atm.

I can say with absolute confidence it is the booze, I was annoyed that the elf taverns in forest retreats spawned with room where barrels should be (and the mug/instrument coffers) plus a tavern keeper, but no booze.

After getting booze to show up finally I was hanging out in some to pick up dances/songs and people just start fights randomly, choke to death on their own vomit, and generally act like a bunch of raucous drunks.

Is it worth building a room that you can shut entrances with vertical bars and flood it with water? It would be the only entrance to my fort and I would make floodgate sloped drainage ways as well. I'm still pretty new so I don't know if Goblins/Megabeasts will smash it and not drown at all? Or is a maze and arrowdorfs just superior?

Having to deal with sewage and waste would add a new challenge, as well as an important dimension to the game.

Failing to address this new challenge should turn your lovely fort into the shithole in the pic.

This is especially relevent now that the recent updates have been focused on enriching the lives of your citizens. They are no longer just regarded as mouths to feed and keep happy, but instead you want them to have as high a standard of living as possible. Keeping filth away from your nice, clean fort should be a part of this direction in development.

Also, it would be pretty cool to see forts experiencing big crises(overpowered sieges forcing you to close the drawbridge, OP FBs forcing your people to live in horror, lack of clean water, et cetera) get issues with sanitation. For example, refuse would pile up in the streets/corridors, sewers/toilets would flood, and diseases would spread among your dwarves.

Even if Toady decides to keep the NSFW stuff out, there's no way that he gets away from adding sewers.

>>126443318
yeah, i completely agree. Would make the game harder and more realistic, wich is the ultimate goal of Toady anyways, plus, I always wanted the chance to make my prisions more intimidating, and allowing shit to be thrown inside and make the criminals get diseases and probably get mentally scarred from it (only the weakiest pussies) makes me really erect

What the fuck are you on about
There is no word like cigáni in Polish
the closest is cygan, and it means gypsy

Ok, how many fucking slavs are on this thread right now?

ayy very poor people live in favelas, m8. Most of them have web access nowadays (unfortunately), but few would have the english skills to even know about DF

It's like asking random americans if they live in ghuettos or if they are affiliated to the Crips

I know cygan is gypsys, but my friend who knows more polish than mean told me cigáni means law enforcement. Then again, he might be drunk right now so I probably should have thought about that for a bit.
I used to live In Poznan, and right beside our apartment was a gypsy town. I went there with some friends and Im not even fucking joking, there were about 20 cygan starting at us through the windows in a group like a black man in a white neighborhood in the 50's. Was fucking terrifying.

Would you consider this amazing courage a bug?
Dwarfs constantly drink so having them perma fearless is a bit unbalanced. Booze should at least sway them to the other side as well if not reduce it's affect on their thoughts considering they shouldn't even get drunk.

Mount and Blade
Lots of shitty jrpgs for ps2
Used to play VNs, but then I stopped being an autistic weeb

Then, there are the other roguelikes. My weeb tastes make me like roguelikes like Elona, Azure Dreams, and Slash-Em Extended, although I also like other open-world rls, like Unreal World, Pirates of the Western Sea, Cataclysm and Prospector. While not a "real" roguelike, I like playing ASCII Sector.

I also follow the development of Ultima Ratio Regum.

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but Toady has said on a couple of occassions that he would never be adding a sewage management mechanic. I believe the quote was something to the effect of "I don't want DF to be known as 'that game with shit.'"

>>126453880
yes. I mean I'm sure you can work around it, but basically yes

>>126453956
it's only used to move diagonally, right?

can you re-bind it?

>>126454028
yes you can rebind anything but it'd be rather uncomfortable without one.

I had a hidden garbage dump near my pitfall trap, and I was trying to dump the corpses to be put near a drawbridge to be crushed.
What ended up happening is that they'd take the bodies, go to the top of the pit, and drop the bodies on the those down at the bottom trying to get more bodies to dump on their friends again instead of going to the drawbridge because it was closer.
I lost 4 dwarves that day.

So my soldier got bitten by a werelama in the head
I put him in a room next to my military so they can kill him when he transforms but now the 4th month without transforming passed
Can i just put him in my military again?

If you're sure about how much time has passed, yes. Infected dwarves will transform every month.

>>126454793
Merry Christmas.

>>126454536
If he didn't transform then he wasn't infected. Just be really fucking sure that the date was right.
