You don’t need to avoid aquifers, just be sure to smooth the walls and floors above and the rocks won’t leak into your rooms. Water leaks through walls and ceiling tiles. Constructed walls are also water tight.

oh? I've never had them leak through a ceiling. Two alternatives. Mine out all of the wet blocks so they stop producing water. Create 2 tile thick walls over the wet blocks. A third alternative is to make a pit long enough downwards that the water just becomes mist instead. This would require not many aquifer blocks exposed though.

OMG man ! you saved me ! your bonus tips about strange mood ! My militia commander Rimtar Otungmeng, Legendary Hammerdwarf in full steel, has been possessed and claimed my stoneworker's workshop. Later he got berserk mode and killed many peasant dwarfs until his brother in arms, another Legendary hammerdwarf ended Rimtar's berserk mode with his hammer and heroicaly died during that. Missing piece was - leather. One cow laid down her life to save many dwarfs. Thank you for your tip :)

If you want some more in depth tutorials there is a channel called blind that made a really good 10 part series where he goes through the entire lifespan of a fort and explains each step in the process of what he does. Also, don't be afraid to just hop in and mess around a bit. Making mistakes is part of the fun in DF

You wish leather is good for armor for any dwarf. :D Sure it is better than nothing, but still is quite inadequate, even for dwarves that are intended to shoot as they love to engage the enemy in melee when possible. Probably a good point to have added is if you are going for missile troops to give them designated zones to fire from, and not open ground for them to charge at the enemy. Also, don't put arrows in containers. Same with seeds. ugh there's so much to this game that needs more in depth tips. You could mention dogs and pigs are the best animals to begin with since they only need a pen zone which can be anywhere as they don't need grass. You could also mention that the moment you open up a cave underground all floor tiles that are not stone will begin to grow fungus and moss which count as 'grass' for purposes of grazing animals. Trade merchants require 4 tile open ground to move their caravans to the depot. If they can't they will only bring their animals, thus have less goods to sell and less carry weight to accept. Learn to make drawbridges. These a practically impervious doors to invaders. Perfect for fortress entrances. A well is a requirement for some rooms which is perfect if you can utilize an aquifer for - infinite water source underground. If you make a tavern, you risk more thieves and unwanted trouble into your fortress if you allow all to access it. Switch it to residents, and citizens only or citizens only to avoid this. As a noobie you don't want to have to deal with early issues of outsiders freely welcomed inside your fortress. I mean there's a LOT of things to take into consideration. Blind has a channel that includes some in depth aspects of the game. I've never gotten to the stage of making metal products, as I never dig deep enough. Generally some game bug screws the game up making it no longer fun to play. Losing is fun when the game is running as intended, not due to bugs :/ (like dwarves ceasing to do work, dying of dehydration when there is ample drink, enemies immune to falling damage, archers running into melee, trade depots not getting emptied, no digging upwards, dwarves unable to use more than one ammo type, oh the list goes on and on)

Bring a few pairs of Turkey would solve your food problem. Theyre cheap on embark points, breed like crazy, and produce eggs. You can even butcher them for meats. Also since food prices are broken rn. You can sell lavish meals you made from your turkeys to buy a whole caravan. But becareful not to generate too much wealth

@roetemeteor
@roetemeteor Жыл бұрын
Don't dig too deep. Honestly, once the circus is in town, it's usually too late. Best you can hope for is to wall off the shaft and pray they don't make it up there in time. Edit: to be entirely honest, in the future, you shouldn't even be dreaming of cotton candy until you've got a well-trained military, equipped in full Steel with steel Edge weapons, and silver blunt weapons, if not flat out Platinum if you could accomplish that. Clowns are absolutely no joke, and they will decimate anyone not ready for the cosmic joke. It's better to even have a drawbridge setup for the dedicated fun shaft so if you mess up, you can have someone pull the lever and minimize your losses to a few unwashed peasants with pickaxes. No matter what happens, always remember, losing is fun!

Game looks great... but it looks clunky. And 90s retro which i love. But i read its full of game breaking bugs that ruin things. I also kinda wish the people moved more fluid versus floating lol. They seen to be moving in an excelerated rate like the game speed is sped up its odd 20 year old work in progress i get it.. but oxygen not included seems to have done this but better. What is your veey homest opinion.. Is it buggy and game breaking ? Is it really worth the 40$ they want
