'''Planepacked''' is a [[Limestone]] [[Statue]], now known as the most epic [[artifact]] ever created by dwarvenkind, without cheating or exploiting. Since nothing remotely similar has ever been reported, Planepacked is certainly some sort of bug, or some unintended result of modding [[goblin]]s to be twelve times stronger. However, it is still considered "official" by those who care about such things.

= The Statue=
The statue itself contains an ungodly amount of items built into it, and contains what would appear to be the entire history of the world in which it was created. It also includes several dozen images of itself, leading one to believe that either the designs engraved upon it are minutely fractal, or that where Planepacked stands the universe folds. It also most likely contains several pictures of toads, and squares, but strangely, no cheese.

== Value ==
Planepacked is worth an amazing 3,105,600☼, an extremely high amount in relation to its standard materials, assuming the multiplier did not glitch.

== Creation ==
According to its owner, creation took over a year to gather all of the materials, and then the standard amount of time to make the item. Why the [[dwarf]] didn't go [[insane]] in the middle of collecting items is unknown, but may have to do with the fact that all the items he needed were there, just not at the [[workshop]] yet.

40d:Meat industry

2009-03-12T18:19:28Z

Viscen: /* Butchering */

This article is a quick guide to running a '''meat and related goods industry'''. If you decide to base your economy off such then keep in mind that animals are not a reliable material source - the amount available depends on the breeding rate of your tame animals, the spawning of wild animals, and/or the amount of leather that traders bring.

Note that the meat industry involves many materials which can [[rot]] and so requires slightly more micromanagement than other [[industry|industries]].

'''Summary''': Obtain some animals; kill and butcher them to obtain bones, meat, fat and raw hides; the bones and meat can be used immediately but the hide needs to be tanned into leather and the fat needs to be processed into tallow; finally cook the tallow into a meal, and craft the leather into an end product.

== Animals ==
There are several sources for obtaining [[animal]]s, outlined below. Alternatively you can skip that business and just [[trade]] directly for [[leather]]. You'll miss out on [[meat]], [[fat]], and [[bone]]s though.

=== Trading ===
''Requires: A [[trading depot]], a [[Outpost broker|trader]], a [[merchant]], and some [[Finished goods|tradeable goods]]''

You can purchase both animals and leather from a merchant. Animals can either be kept for breeding (see [[#Breeding|''Breeding'' below]]) or butchered immediately (see [[#Butchering|''Butchering'' below]]).

If you wish to import leather in sufficient quantity to keep your [[leather worker]]s occupied year-round, then you should request leather to be imported from the the trading [[liaison]]s. It is reccomended that you request every type of leather at low priority in order to ensure the merchant comes back with a large quantity next year. You can only buy leather from [[human]]s and [[dwarf]] caravans{{verify}}.

=== Hunting ===
''Requires: A [[hunter]] and huntable [[Creatures|wildlife]]'' 
''Recommended: A [[dog]] (or three), leather [[armor]], and a [[weapon]] - preferably a [[crossbow]], [[quiver]], and [[bolts]]''

It should be noted that hunters will ignore some wildlife, e.g. [[zombie]] [[groundhog]]s. Depending on where you settled your [[fortress]], your [[biome]] may have no wildlife at all.

After equipping him or herself, a dwarven hunter will make a beeline towards the nearest wild animal and attempt to kill it, regardless of whether it is one amongst a large pack of hostile creatures{{verify}}. Upon killing the beast the dwarf will carry the [[corpse]] to the closest [[refuse]] [[stockpile]]; the nearest meeting area if no stockpile exists; or to the site of your original [[wagon]] if no meeting area has been defined {{verify}}. Once he has deposited the corpse it will be ready for butchering (see [[#Butchering|''Butchering'' below]]).

If the hunter kills other animals on his return journey while defending himself then those animals will not be carried indoors. To avoid wasting them you need to change your general {{k|o}}rders to <tt>Gather refuse from outside</tt> (note that selecting this option may have undesirable side-effects).

=== Soldiers ===
''Requires: Any number of [[soldiers]] and huntable [[Creatures|wildlife]]'' 

If so desired, you can order your active soldiers out to kill animals by enabling them to "harass dangerous wild animals" in the [[military]] screen. This is particularly useful if a large herd appears and you want to get them all before they emigrate to less blood-soaked pastures; be prepared to process them all, however (see below)

=== Cage traps ===
''Requires: [[Cage]]s, [[mechanism]]s, and a [[mechanic]]''

It is also possible to catch animals through judicious use of [[cage trap]]s. This, of course, involves building cage traps where animals will walk. Once they are trapped the caged animal (or [[invader]]) will be delivered to an animal stockpile and the trap will be reset with a fresh cage.

=== Breeding ===
''Requires: One or more adult females and one adult male of each species, not in cages, and time'' 
''Recommended: [[Cages]] and [[restraint]]s''

If a male and a female of the same species are not currently in [[cage]]s then sooner or later the male will impregnate the female, regardless of distance, physical obstacles, number of males (beyond the first), and even ownership. It is theorised that creatures in the dwarf fortress universe propagate via some kind of spores with built in homing devices and, in some cases, microscopic [[pickaxe]]s. Either that, or telepathy. But everyone knows there's no such thing as telepathy!

Caged animals will not breed, although animals on a [[restraint]] will. It is recommended that you rope down all your livestock near your [[butcher's shop]], as a large number of free-roaming animals will reduce your game speed. Additionally it reduces the amount of time it takes butchers to track down and retrieve animals they are to slaughter.

For the same reasons as above, it is recommended that you cage all your young because the neither breed nor give the same amount of bones, meat, and fat as adults. Furthermore:
* Cages can hold an unlimited number of animals, so you only need one.
* Caged animals do not affect processor speed.
* Distinguishing between breeding animals and butcherable livestock is easier when clearly separated.
* Caged cats cannot adopt owners (thus decreasing the chances of a [[catsplosion]]).
* You can define a [[zoo]] from a cage, increasing overall fortress wealth, dwarven happiness, etc..

Using cage traps judiciously can sometimes snag you a breeding pair of a wild animal. Tame something unusual and start something crazy, like an [[alligator]] farm!

== Butchering ==
''Requires: A [[butcher's shop]], a [[butcher]], and either a stray tamed [[animal]] marked for slaughter or one killed by a hunter''

Once an animal has been killed by a hunter you only have a limited amount of time to butcher the corpse before it rots. If your butcher is distracted by other tasks this is quite impossible.

By default a [[butcher's shop]] will automatically queue <tt>Butcher animal</tt> whenever an animal corpse is available, or <tt>Slaughter animal</tt> for stray animals marked for slaughter. Once butchered the animal will yield one skull (even [[hydra]]s), one raw hide and a number of meat pieces, bones, and chunks - the amount depending on the animal type. The skill of the butcher only affects the time taken for <tt>Butcher animal</tt> task (<tt>Slaughter animal</tt> occurs in the blink of an eye), not the amount produced nor the quality.

Meat and fat goes to your food stockpile. Bones, chunks and raw hides go to the refuse stockpile. Chunks have no use and should be left to rot to nothingness, but you would be well put to create custom stockpiles for hides next to your tanner's shop (see [[#Tanning|''Tanning'' below]]), for bones next to your craftdwarves workshop (see [[#Bone carving|''Bone carving'' below]]), and changing the settings on your main refuse pile to not accept bones and hides.

If the animal is butchered just before it rots, the products of the animal MAY not rot. It is unknown whether the time of rotting for butchering products is based on the time of death of the animal or the time of production of the butchering returns.{{verify}}

=== Overdrive ===

In some instances - most notably, after [[rhesus macaque]] invasions, or killing some other large herd with your soldiers - you may find yourself with more bodies and [[severed body part]]s than you can process. In this case it is a good idea to set up some temporary extra butcher and tanners' shops (and butchers and tanners) to process them all before they rot. Butchers are more important because their workshops have a tendency to get crowded really quick.

== Using the animal products==
Animal products can support several industries within the fortress: they provide meat and fat for cooking, leather for clothing and armor, and bones for armor, ammunition, and trade goods. The [[value]] of an animal product is multiplied by the animal's modvalue, so items made from common animals are less valuable than items made from rare animals like a [[giant cave spider]] or a [[dragon]]. An animal's modvalue can be found in the creature raw files.

===Bone carving===
''Requires: [[Bone carver]], [[craftdwarf's workshop]], and some [[bone]]s and [[skull]]s''

Butchering an animal produces quite a few bones and a skull. By setting up a craftdwarf workshop near your abbatoir you can turn these into useful products, such as bone bolts for your [[archer]]s to practice with.

The only useful thing to do with a skull is turn it into a [[totem]] for [[trading]]. Note that totems do not fall under any category in the "Move trade goods to depot" screen, and so you need to {{k|s}}earch for them.

===Meat and fat===
''Requires: a [[cook]], a [[kitchen]], and some [[meat]] or [[fat]]''

[[Fat]] can be rendered into [[tallow]] at a [[kitchen]], and then used as an ingredient in meals; if you feel particularly enterprising and have wood on your map, you can instead make the tallow into [[soap]] for constructions or trade. Meat can be eaten raw, or used as an ingredient.

=== Tanning ===
''Requires: a [[tanner]], a [[tanner's shop]], , and [[raw hide]]''

As with the butcher's shop, the tanner's shop will queue <tt>Tan raw hide</tt> automatically (by default), the tanner's skill has no affect on quantity nor quality of the leather produced, and the task is time-sensitive because of rot.

It is quite sensible to have a single dwarf as both the butcher and tanner, as you will never need to begin tanning until you finish butchering. You could also make this same dwarf your leatherworker.

Once a hide has been tanned it goes into the leather stockpile.

=== Leatherworking ===
''Requires: A [[leather works]], a [[leatherworker]], and a [[tanned hide]]''

Once you have tanned hides, whether created yourself or bought from a merchant, you can use them to produce leather goods at the [[leather works]].

40d:Floodgate

2009-03-12T18:15:37Z

Viscen:

A '''floodgate''' is an object used to regulate the flow of fluids, such as [[water]] and [[magma]]. 
They can be built from [[rock]] (at a [[mason's workshop]]), [[wood]] (at a [[carpenter's workshop]]), [[metal]] (at a [[metalsmith's forge]]), or [[glass]] (at a [[glass furnace]]). 
== Placement ==
Floodgates generally have to be built prior to flooding the area (obvious for [[magma]], isn't it?) but can still be built at a [[water]] level of 1/7.

If there is no roof above a floodgate and water comes to it from a source with higher elevation, the water can spill over it. See the [[pressure]] article for more information.

[[Dwarves]] often like to stand on the wrong side of the floodgate they are constructing so that they may conveniently decline any subsequent labor. They'll sit there with their feet propped up on a conveinent rock, twiddling their thumbs until such time as the floodgate is opened mechanically or deconstructed. To avoid this situation you should build something on the tile you ''don't'' want them to stand on, <tt>Suspend</tt> its construction until the floodgate is complete, and <tt>Cancel</tt> its construction when you're finished.

== Activation ==
Floodgates have to be linked to [[lever]]s or [[pressure plate]]s to allow them to be opened and closed <s>remotely</s> at all. An open floodgate also can be walked through, whereas a closed one can not.
Once activated, it will take approximately 100 steps for the floodgate to open or close: the same as [[bridge]]s.

== Floodgates vs Magma ==
Closed floodgates of any material will resist magma, much like constructed [[wall]]s. However, once a [[magma]] floodgate is opened, the magma will flow though and destroy it if:
* the floodgate itself if it was not made of [[magma-safe materials]].
* the [[mechanism]] if it was not made of [[magma-safe materials]] ([[bauxite]] or [[raw adamantine]]), thus deconstructing the floodgate.

== Uses ==
A water floodgate connected to a [[river]] can be opened to create a shallow pool, then closed, the pool then be drained or allowed to evaporate. The resulting [[mud]] can be used for [[underground]] [[farm]]s. Standing water can be used for drinking, or sufficiently rushing water used as a defense against invaders.

A floodgate can also be used to cover [[fortification]]s when they are not being used. This will prevent enemies from firing into your fort through the fortifications, and can be useful if your [[marksdwarf]]s arrive at the fortification one at a time.

Unlike doors, floodgates can be built directly adjacent to each other; that is, floodgates do not require an adjacent wall. This allows [[channel]]s wider than two squares to be regulated. This characteristic also permits for the construction of "siege doors", allowing areas wider than two tiles to be sealed off from the enemy. For instance, the three tile wide access point for a [[Trade Depot]] within the fortress can be closed down into a chokepoint with floodgates and a lever, giving your marksdwarves more of a chance to shoot invaders.

40d:Sand

Viscen:

'''Sand''' is a naturally occurring granular material composed of small bits of [[rock]] and minerals. There are five different colors of sand – tan, yellow, white, black, and red – but their only difference is their appearance on the ground, as there is no difference between them for purposes of [[Glass Industry|glassmaking]]. Sand typically appears in [[desert]]s and along [[ocean]] beaches, but is occasionally found in other [[biome]]s as well.

Sandy clay, sandy clay loam, sandy loam, and loamy sand are not considered sand by the game and thus cannot be used for glassmaking.

Due to a bug, stone floors where a [[tower-cap]] or shrub grows will turn into a random soil type, which will sometimes be sand.{{verify}}

== Sand in fortress mode ==

Sand is used in the production of [[glass]] items at a [[glass furnace]]. Dwarves with the item hauling labor turned on use [[bag]]s to collect sand from sand tiles if there is an [[activity zone]] that has sand collection enabled on them. There is no other way to obtain sand. To get bags to fill with sand for your fortress, create a [[leather]] bag at a [[leather works]] or a [[cloth]] bag at a [[clothier's shop]], or buy the bags from a caravan. While the bags are being procured, press {{k|i}} at the main menu to bring up the [[activity zone]] designation screen. Find some sand on your map and draw the zone over it. Once this zone is constructed, make sure to turn it into a sand collection zone by pressing {{k|s}}. Next, construct a [[glass furnace]]. You cannot do the collect sand task without a glass furnace to activate the task at. Once the building is constructed and your bag is finished, queue up a sand collection task and your dwarves will begin collecting sand.

It may be useful to construct several glass furnaces (non-magma is easier) and have several "collect sand" jobs queued on them at the same time, so that you have enough filled sand bags on hand to keep your glassmaker(s) supplied. Collecting sand requires the "item hauling" labor. Moving filled sand bags requires the "furniture hauling" labor. To have sand bags stored near your glass furnace, create a furniture [[stockpile]] with only "sand bags" enabled (this is selected via the {{k|u}} key in the furniture/siege ammo submenu of the stockpile settings menu).

Sand bags are stored in [[furniture]] [[stockpile]]s. When customizing stockpiles, the option to include or exclude sand-filled bags can be found in the lower right corner of the Furniture sub-menu. You will need to set the stockpile to accept the quality of the bags themselves. Collected sand is listed under [[powder]] on the [[stocks]] menu.

== Farming ==

As all sand types are [[soil]]s, [[farm plot]]s can be built on them without need for irrigation.

==Strange Mood's==
A immigrant glass maker will occasionally request glass on a sand-less map. Normally you wont have anyone with the glass-making skill but immigrants do come with it sometimes. The best way to deal with this is to train them higher in an other [[Strange_mood#Skills_and_workshops|applicable skill]] to avoid moody glass makers or you´ll just let the dwarf die. Cheating would help either situation. Add [SOIL_SAND] to any soil you do have, in the object raw's.

40d:Currency

2009-02-26T21:04:42Z

Viscen:

The game's '''currency''' is measured in "☼", sometimes called "dwarfbucks". Each item has a specific trade [[value]] in ☼.

When the [[dwarven economy]] sets in, coins of legal currency metal will have monetary value in addition to their trade value. Copper coins are worth 1☼, silver coins are worth 5☼ and gold coins are worth 15☼.

Independent of this, the trade value of any coins is 10 multiplied by the [[metal]] value, when used in trade, or collectors coins sold in [[shop]]s (not copper, silver or gold coins).

Using coins as a trade good is not advisable as they have no quality levels.


Dwarven coins are minted at the [[Metalsmith's forge]].
