v0.31:Personality facet

Xaque: prettified the table

{{quality|Fine|08:00, 22 May 2010 (UTC)}}{{av}}

Dwarven personalities are determined by a set of traits. They are different than, but similar to {{L|Attributes}}.

Personality traits are shown in the dwarf's "thoughts and preferences" description page.

They can affect which social skills a dwarf trains during conversation.

Perhaps they affect positive/negative thoughts from social interactions (including "give food" and "give water" nursing tasks), and whether they choose to socialize.
Perhaps also how quickly they get frustrated from not being able to do things.

'''World tokens''' are used to store world parameter settings used in creating custom worlds. Parameter settings are stored in ''world_gen.txt'', found in the ''\data\init\'' folder. You can change all of these in-game in the world generation menu by editing advanced parameters, or by editing the file directly. For information on generating worlds with particular geographic features, see {{L|Advanced world generation}}.

=Tokens=

{| {{prettytable}}
|- bgcolor="#ddd"
! Token !!Arguments !! Description
|-
| TITLE
| string
| The name of the template you've created, not the name of the world itself. This will appear as the name of the parameter set when the option to create a world from preferences is chosen.
|-
| DIM
| X:Y values
| The dimensions of the world, in X and Y rows and columns. Viable values are 17,33,65,129, and 257. Larger worlds take longer to generate.
|-
| END_YEAR
| number
| The year history generation ends, assuming no conflict with BEAST_END_YEAR. More years means more events in the history; requiring more computer memory. Some civilizations might die out from wars or megabeasts if the history runs long enough.
|-
| BEAST_END_YEAR
|
year 
percent
| When history generation hits the first number value, it begins checking to see if the designated percent of megabeasts have been killed. If they have, world generation stops early. Megabeasts tend not to die during world generation unless they are killed by other megabeasts, so this will likely not be a concern. This tag can be ignored entirely by setting the percent value to -1.
|-
| REVEAL_ALL_HISTORY
| 1 or 0
| Whether or not to hide history in legend mode until you've discovered it in adventure mode.
|-
| CULL_HISTORICAL_FIGURES
| 1 or 0
| Whether or not the game ignores unimportant figures in history generation. The culling is many CPU-intensive steps in history generation but it saves memory.
|-
| ELEVATION, RAINFALL, TEMPERATURE, DRAINAGE, VOLCANISM, SAVAGERY
|
min 
max 
X-variance 
Y-variance
| The min and max for all values except temperature and elevation are percentages (0 to 100) while temperature is -1000 to 1000 and elevation is 1 to 400. The X and Y variance are the amount the values change along the X and Y axis of a given map; 0:0 for example on a value gives one random value across the entire map. 
By subtly tweaking the min and max values, vastly different maps can be made. The largest chance of having unusable maps comes from too high of a savagery value, which means civilizations cannot form. Increasing variance will result in a more "patchwork" world, with many small biomes. For this to work, the SUBREGION_MAX token must be edited as well.
|-
| ELEVATION, RAINFALL, TEMPERATURE, DRAINAGE, VOLCANISM, SAVAGERY FREQUENCY
|
mesh size 
mesh weighted range 0-20, 20-40, 40-60, 60-80, 80-100
|The Mesh Size affects the smoothing brush in the world painter. It also seems to have an affect on the variability of the regions during world gen if you do not use the world painter.

The weighted ranges affect the relative amounts of that parameter when world gen begins. For example, if you set the 0-20 range of rainfall to 5 and the 20-40 of rainfall range to 1, you will get approximately 5 times as many areas with 0-20 rainfall as areas with 20-40 rainfall. These amounts do not have to add up to any particular number; in the above example, you can get the same effect with 500 and 100.

Lastly, the weighted ranges affect what parameters the world begins with; they do not make rejection checks, although they can be responsible for many rejections if you neglect to turn off some of the minimum parameters found near the bottom of preset world parameters.
|-
| TITAN_NUMBER
|
number
|This tag is responsible for the number of procedurally generated overland enemies known as {{L|Titan}}s. The number of {{L|forgotten beasts}} is unaffected by this tag.
|-
| TITAN_ATTACK_TRIGGER
|
number (population):number:number (created wealth)
|This tag governs the point at which your fortress becomes large enough to attract a titan's interest.
|-
| DEMON_NUMBER
|
number
|This tag is responsible for the number of types of procedurally generated {{L|demon}}s found when digging too deep.
|-
| GOOD_SQ_COUNTS, EVIL_SQ_COUNTS
|
small region value 
medium region value 
large region value
| These values change the amount of good or evil tiles on the map, depending on the size of the region it is being considered for. Overly large values seem to be fine; doubling or tripling the evil value of all three seems to not give any errors. Note: If either of these values are set to 0, they will BOTH generate no good or evil regions. Setting good or evil to 1:1:1 fixes this.
|-
| PEAK_NUMBER_MIN
| value 0 to 200
| This determines if a region is rejected for not having enough mountain peaks. It can be a very frequent cause of infinite rejections if your map does not have enough cliffs/elevation/mountains.
|-
| PARTIAL_OCEAN_EDGE_MIN
| value 0 to 4
| This determines the minimum amount of oceans on your map. It can be a cause of rejections if you have very high minimum elevation, as there's not enough salinity to form an ocean. These oceans can form anywhere, even in landlocked zones.
|-
| COMPLETE_OCEAN_EDGE_MIN
| value 0 to 4
| This determines the minimum amount of oceans surrounding a main continent on your map. It can be a cause of rejections if you have very high minimum elevation, as there's not enough salinity to form an ocean. This tag is mainly used for island worlds.
|-
| VOLCANO_MIN
| value 0 to 200
| This determines if a map is rejected for not having enough volcanoes on it. It seems to have a relatively high threshold in terms of map rejections, as long as your volcanism is set appropriately high.
|-
| REGION_COUNTS
|
biome 
initial map tile count 
initial biome region count 
final biome region count
| This token rejects a map if it does not meet the specific biome requirements. All values (except biome) can be set to 0 to greatly limit map rejections.
|-
| EROSION_CYCLE_COUNT
| value
| Tells the world-generator how long the world has to erode its tall peaks down to mountainsides during the 'running rivers...' stage of world creation. The higher this number, the less jagged the world will be, and the more wide the major rivers will be. If you use the maximum number, your mountains will dissolve before your eyes into plains which can lead to rejections if there aren't enough mountains to use for river start points and dwarven civilization origin points.
|-
| RIVER_MINS
|
pre-erosion value 0 to 800 
post-erosion value
| These values determine how many rivers are spawned during the river generation phase of world building. Extremely high pre-erosion values speed erosion greatly, while low post erosion values are useful for limiting rejects due to lack of river origin points. One can try the 800 value to get more lakes.
|-
| PERIODICALLY_ERODE_EXTREMES
| 1 or 0
| This token, when set to 1, will smooth out extremely high cliffs during world generation, making them more slope-like and and accessible in adventurer or dwarf fortress mode.
|-
| OROGRAPHIC_PRECIPITATION
| 1 or 0
| Toggle that allows terrain height to affect rainfall. For example, moist air coming from the ocean blows over the land. As the terrain gets higher, it forces the moist air up, causing it to rain on the seaward side of a mountain. Eventually, all the rain has fallen if the mountain is tall enough. So, when the breeze goes over the top, there's no moisture left to fall on the other side, creating a rain-shadow. This should create a tendency for more extreme rainfall in regions, creating more forests, deserts, marshlands, and grasslands.
|-
| SUBREGION_MAX
| value 1 to 60000
| The maximum amount of subregions a world can have. Larger values mean the regions will be smaller, while smaller values means they will be larger. Logically, setting this to very low values will result in numerous rejections since not all civilizations can live on them. Increasing the value of this tag can be a must when generating "patchwork" worlds with lots of biome variance.
|-
| CAVE_MAX_SIZE
| value 1 to 500
| This determines the maximum size of all caves generated in the world. Most new-style caves are around 25, while older, much larger and emptier caves can be made by setting it to 300.
|-
| CAVERN_LAYER_COUNT
| 0 to 5
| This determines the amount of cavern layers on your map. Setting this value to zero will remove caverns from your map entirely, which will remove the ability of dwarves to embark with underground plants.
|-
| CAVERN_LAYER_OPENNESS MIN and MAX
| 0 to 100
| The effects of openness are not completely verified yet, although it is suspected to relate to the number of open z-levels in caverns.
|-
| CAVERN_LAYER_PASSAGE_DENSITY MIN and MAX
| 0 to 100
| Passage density governs the appearance of caverns. Caverns will be large, open spaces at 0, and comprised of many small vertical shafts of rock at 100. Setting both values to be the same results in a uniform look for the caverns.
|-
| CAVERN_LAYER_WATER MIN and MAX
| 0 to 100
| This controls the percentage of caverns with water at the bottom. Even at 100, caverns will contain some ground, but each major cave will contain at least some water. At 0, there will be no water in the caverns which will affect underground plants which like to grow near water.
|-
| LEVELS_ABOVE_GROUND
| number
| This tag governs the number of open z-levels of the surface of the ground. Typically, this isn't important unless you plan on building a magnificently tall above-ground construction.
|-
| '''LEVELS_ABOVE_LAYER X where X is a number between 0 and 5.'''
| number
| Each of these tags controls the number of soil and stone layers between each cavern layer. For example, when X is one, the tag will govern the number of layers between the above ground and the first cavern layer. Note that "layers" in this sense does not translate directly into z-levels: soil and stone layers may be multiple z-levels deep. '''NEEDS EXPANDING AND CROSSOVER FROM ADVANCED WORLD GENERATION ARTICLE'''
|-
| ALL_CAVES_VISIBLE
| 1 or 0
| This determines whether caves are hidden until you find them in adventurer mode. If this is set 1, you can also see them on the embark screen when creating a fortress.
|-
| TOTAL_CIV_NUMBER
| 0 to 100
| This determines how many civilizations the world generator places on initial loading. Note that a high value here can cause lots of map rejections, particularly on smaller maps as there simply isn't enough room or regions to put them all in.
|-
| TOTAL_CIV_POPULATION
| -1 to 20000
| This token determines the population cap of a civilization after it's been created. It should usually be kept the same value as the appropriate sized standard map.
|-
| PLAYABLE_CIVILIZATION_REQUIRED
| 1 or 0
| When set to 0, the world will not be rejected if there is no place for a civilization that the player can play as.
|-
| ELEVATION_RANGES, RAIN_RANGES, DRAINAGE_RANGES, SAVAGERY_RANGES, VOLCANISM_RANGES
|
mid value 
low value 
high value
| Sets the minimum possible number of squares of certain ranges of each of the region qualities, such as elevation, rain, drainage, volcanism, savagery, and temperature. These need to be changed to reflect your regional meshes and weights. These are responsible for a HUGE number of map rejections. These values can all be set to 0 for much fewer map rejections, particularly in the case of more wacky, non-standard maps.

|-
| [[ETHIC]]
|
*behavior
*reaction
| Sets the civ's view of certain behaviors, from capital punishment to completely acceptable. This also causes the civ to look upon opposing ethics with disfavor, if their reaction to it is opposing, and when at extremes (one ACCEPTABLE, another civ UNTHINKABLE for example) they will often go to war over it.
[ETHIC:EAT_SAPIENT_KILL:ACCEPTABLE]

|-
| WILL_ACCEPT_TRIBUTE
|
| Makes the civ accept tribute from conquered sites? Or maybe makes the civ's traders accept offered goods?

|
| The civ will send out these sorts of adventurers in worldgen.

|-
| ABUSE_BODIES
|
| The civilization will mutilate bodies when they are the victors in history-gen warfare, such as hanging bodies from trees, putting them on spikes, and so forth.

|-
| ACTIVE_SEASON
| season
| the season the civ is most active and will trade, interact with you, and/or invade. While only one friendly non-dwarven civ can be active per season, both dwarves and another civ can be active in autumn. Including the dwarves, you can have five active civs trading with you. Civs can have multiple season entries.
[ACTIVE_SEASON:AUTUMN]

|-
| AMBUSHER
|
| When invading sneaks around and shoots at straggling members of your society. They will spawn on the edge of the map and will only be visible when one of their party are spotted; this can be quite dangerous to undefended trade depots.

|-
| AT_PEACE_WITH_WILDLIFE
|
| Will not attack wildlife, and will not be attacked by them, even if you have them in your party. This can be somewhat disconcerting when attacked by bears in the forest and your elven ally sits back and does nothing.

|-
| BABYSNATCHER

Chunks are produced by unskilled butchers instead of some of the expected meat? [[User:Coelocanth|Coelocanth]]
:No, chunks are produced, along with meat, by any butcher or slaughter task, regardless of skill. —[[User:0x517A5D|0x517A5D]] 00:51, 23 November 2007 (EST)
:: well, more skilled ''Axedwarves'' '''do''' produce more chunks *hehehe* --[[User:Koltom|Koltom]] 13:15, 21 March 2008 (EDT)

Where do chunks come under the refuse ordering? Obviously I have missed it as they never get hauled. --[[User:Gorfob|Gorfob]]

:Probably under 'other' (o-r-k), but they should be hauled with either setting if you have designated a dump area ('i') ; either to the dump or the refuse pile. --[[User:Koltom|Koltom]] 13:15, 21 March 2008 (EDT)

make tame animals eat them tbh.... [[User:Twiggie|Twiggie]] 08:32, 19 August 2008 (EDT)

== Usage ==

Depending on the type of chunk, it may actually decay into bones; possibly skull. I noticed a Ratman leg chunk (not sure on specifics, just recall "Leg") near beginning of embarkation with my Woodcutter. The corpse decayed into bones (did not check amount specifically) and skull while the leg chunk decayed into a bone (again, did not check amount; assuming [1]).

I'll be careful to take special note in the future to see if its purely humanoid or applies to animals as well. Also, I'm going to assume it's based upon what the chunk is of. A foot or hand chunk may decay into nothing, whilst arm, torso, lower body, etc may decay into bones (number may be based again on area chunk is made of). I can't remember if heads are considered chunks when decapitation occurs; if so I believe they decay into skull. --[[User:DracoG|DracoG]] 02:19, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

So, here's a list of the various ethics tags that I got a friend to dump for me, as I couldn't find them anywhere. If anyone else wants to make this page more pretty and better formatted that would be good, I can't get the hang of wikis --[[User:Lord.Nagash|Lord.Nagash]] 20:18, 21 July 2008 (EDT)

== Ethics ==

Do ethics have any effect on the game besides looking pretty and starting wars? I tried to make a race that thought slavery was perfectly acceptable but it wouldn't take any civilians prisoner after pillaging/destroying. Do I need [ABUSE_BODIES]? --[[User:Squeegy|Squeegy]] 20:40, 3 November 2008 (EST)
: I'm guessing not all of these have been coded into the AI behaviors yet, with the exception of goblin snatchers and kobold thieves. All they probably do right now is spark wars through philosophical disagreements during worldgen. You know, an elf and a dwarf go for a drink, they get to talking about religion, slavery and sapient races, more drink is involved, arguments start, before you know it your civ is at war. --[[User:Jellyfishgreen|Jellyfishgreen]] 10:19, 13 January 2009 (EST)

::What about lying, for example? I don't believe there is any way to "lie" anywhere in the game, seemingly making this ethic option moot. Worldgen stuff, maybe, but what possible impact could it have? Can lies spark wars? --[[User:Smartmo|Smartmo]] 22:10, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

== EAT_SAPIENT ==

EAT_SAPIENT_KILL being set to acceptable will allow you to butcher creatures from intelligent creatures (elves, humans, goblins, kobolds) that you kill. EAT_SAPIENT_OTHER allows you to butcher intelligent corpses that are killed by someone else. I'm still trying to collect info on the other tags. [[User:Xaque|Xaque]] 13:06, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

{{Tile|☺|#F00|#000}} A '''mechanic''' is a [[dwarf]] with a degree of [[skill]] in the mechanics job. In the game's default configuration mechanics are represented by a red civilian dwarf symbol. A dwarf with the mechanics skill enabled is capable of constructing [[mechanic's workshop]]s, [[mechanism]]s and all other [[building]]s that require mechanisms such as [[lever]]s, [[gear]]s, [[traps]], and [[menacing spike]]s. They are also responsible for linking up [[lever]]s or [[pressure plate]]s to objects such as [[bridge]]s, [[floodgate]]s and other contraptions.

A dwarf will gain mechanics skill by building [[mechanism]]s in the [[workshop]]. A dwarf with a high skill in mechanics is able to construct mechanisms and link up objects faster than a novice. A dwarf with a high mechanics skill is also more likely to produce high [[quality]] mechanisms at the workshop which can be used for improving trap damage.

Building a mechanism at the [[mechanic's workshop]] is worth 30 [[skill point]]s.

Mechanics also gain an unknown amount of experience from reloading [[Trap|stone-fall trap]]s.

40d:Windmill

2009-03-07T18:09:09Z

Xaque: /* Windmill tower */ spelling

{{Machine_component|name=Windmill|key=m
|construction=
* 4 [[Wood]]
|construction_job=
# [[Architecture]]
# [[Carpentry]]
|power=Generates 40, 20, or 0 power, depending on wind level
}}

A '''windmill''' is a [[machine component]] that provides [[power]] via wind on the surface of a fortress map. The power produced by each windmill depends on your fortress location.

== When it works ==

A windmill generates power under the following conditions:
# Its center tile is outside.
# The map has wind.
#* Some maps have strong wind (40 power per windmill), some have weak wind (20 power), and some have no wind at all.
# It is not connected to frozen machinery, such as a screw pump or water wheel in ice.

When all of these conditions are met, the windmill will produce power at its center square and transmit it downwards.

== Construction ==

To place a windmill, it must either be supported by machinery from below or on a stable foundation (floor). In either case, the build site must be reachable, either from one of the tiles the windmill is being built on or from adjacent surrounding tiles.

=== Variants ===

==== Standard windmill ====
# Build the windmill.
# Excavate a path under it to the center of its base, 1 [[z-level]] down.
# Add a vertical [[axle]], [[gear assembly]] or machine there, which will have power. A floor between the windmill and this is fine.

==== Windmill tower ====

The "windmill tower" option is useful if you can't dig below your windmill (if, for example, there is a room or underground river there).

# Build a 3×3 platform (or 8-tile ring) out of floors one level above the ground floor.
# Leave the center tile as ''open space'' (this is optional, as power will somehow go through the floor).
# Directly beneath the center of the future windmill, on the ground floor, build a gear assembly.
# Build the windmill on top of the platform.
# Connect this assembly to horizontal axles, and power your machines.
# If desired, remove excess floors/stairs.

'''NOTE:''' The game will not let you build over an open space unless there's a machine or gear assembly underneath it on the floor below.

==== Sunken windmill ====

You can build windmills underground if the central square in the windmill is "outside" (channel the roof away above it). 

==== Windmill farm ====
Several windmills can be linked together via gear assemblies and axles. The first windmill needs a gear assembly beneath it. After that, each windmill will require one gear assembly beneath it and two axles to connect to the next windmill. All windmills produce normal power for the map, but remember that gears and axles will use power produced by the windmills, meaning you'll lose moderate amounts of power connecting your farm together.

==== Hanging windmill ====
# Build building you want powered and up stairs with one tile between them.
# Build down stairs above the up stairs.
# Build windmill directly over building that needs or transfers power.
# (optional) remove the stairs.
This option has one main weakness: It can't be used to power gear assemblies that are linked to levers/pressure plates, because as soon as the assembly turns off it stops supporting the windmill which falls down.

== Using the power ==

Getting power out of a hanging windmill is straightforward. As long as the machinery it's hanging on is a vertical axle, gear assembly, or screw pump, it will be powered.

Windmills with stable foundations are harder. A vertical axle or gear assembly beneath the center tile should always be powered, but the actual behavior seems buggy or non-intuitive; if it doesn't work, try re-building the machinery below the windmill.

== Construction Examples ==

See [[Machinery/Examples]].

40d:Gem

2009-03-04T21:21:01Z

Xaque: chrysocollas are cyan, not blue

Small clusters of rough '''gems''' can be found strewn throughout the [[mountain]]. '''Cut gems''' can be used to [[encrust]] [[furniture]], [[crafts]], [[weapon]]s, [[armor]] and [[ammunition]], to create [[window]]s and as a source material for [[legendary artifact|legendary artifacts]]. In addition, raw [[rock crystal]]s are required to make crystal glass goods. '''Large gems''' are a byproduct of cutting and can not be processed further. They have a high base value for an item(10x) and can easily reach hundreds, even thousands depending on the gem. Artifact large gems made from precious jewels will go for around 50,000.

== Value ==

Gems have base [[item values|value]] of 3 in rough form, which is multiplied by the appropriate value modifier from the table below. They gain value after they are cut in a [[jeweler's workshop]]. Cut gems have a base value of 5. Items can be decorated (encrusted) with cut gems; all such decorations have a value of 10 times the gem type's value multiplier. See [[Gem cutting]] and [[Gem setting]]. Large gems have a base value of 10.

== Varieties ==

Gems come in many varieties, with their own color and value multipliers:

Unlike other gems, diamonds can [[ignite]] if they come into contact with [[magma]].

== Rare Gems ==
Faint yellow diamonds only appear in [[kimberlite]] (which itself only appears in [[gabbro]] layers) and sapphires and rubies only appear in [[bauxite]] (which occurs in any sedimentary layers). Colored diamonds only occur in pre-existing clusters of faint yellow diamonds. Star sapphires and rubies only occur within clusters of their peers.

Like working [[metal]], making glass requires [[fuel]], either [[coke]] or [[charcoal]] at a normal glass furnace, or [[magma]] at a magma [[glass furnace]].

Raw gems are only one of the many things your [[glassmaker]]s can make from glass. It's possible to make most furniture from glass, including [[Table]]s and [[Door]]s. Glass windows can also be made at a glass furnace as an alternative to making windows from gems. And [[trap]] components, such as [[spiked ball]]s or [[giant axe blade]]s, can be made from glass. Glass trap components have the same [[weapon]] [[damage]] as [[wood]] or [[silver]] (50%). They're easier to make than metal weapons because you don't need ore.

Outside of Metal and Wood, Glass is the only readily available material to create [[Cage]]s (called terrariums) out of, as well. And Glass is the ''only'' material available for making aquariums.

40d:Stone

2009-03-04T19:07:09Z

Xaque: anhydrite is actually light gray when mined out

'''Stone''' or '''rock''' is a naturally occuring solid aggregate of minerals. It sometimes [[stone management|leaves behind]] material after being mined or [[cave in|collapsing]]. Other types of [[Mining|minable]] tiles include [[soil]] and [[sand]].

Stone is divided into a few key categories:
* [[Metal ore]]: stone that produces [[metal]] [[bar]]s when [[Smelter|smelted]]
* Rough [[gem]]s: rough gems can be [[gem cutting|cut]], then used to [[encrust]] objects and create [[window]]s.
* Other stone: Stone that is not an [[ore]] or a gem. Few of these have a use outside of items and structures. ([[Obsidian]] is one exception).

[[Economic stone]]s are types of stone that can be reserved for a special purpose. For [[ore]]s, this is smelting and for [[flux|fluxes]], this is steel production. [[Bituminous coal]] and [[lignite]] can be reserved for making [[coke]].

Having created loose stone, many times you'll want to get rid of it or at least move it someplace else. See [[stone management]] for advice.

''This article is about DF geology and the distribution of stones, and does not contain the specific locations of [[metal ore]]s or [[gem]]s.''

== Main layer types ==
There are four types of stone layers (all others are [[soil]]). The type of layer is the primary indicator of what kind of [[ore]] you will find on the map, as well as a sign of [[volcano|volcanic]] activity.
The types are [[sedimentary layer]]s, [[igneous intrusive layer]]s, [[igneous extrusive layer]]s, and [[metamorphic layer]]s.

The primary types of rock only occur in their own layers. (e.g. you won't find [[limestone]] in a [[marble]] layer.)

== Stones forming entire layers ==
These types of stone occur as entire layers, containing some veins and pockets of other minerals (see below). If one of the following types of stone is present on your map, it will be listed in one of the [[biome]]s on the embark screen.

== Other Stone ==
Stones found on this table will occur as pockets and veins inside their respective stone layers (see above). When your miners encounter one of them, the game will pause and you will receive an announcement; even for the ones that have no use other than to build constructions of unusual colors. Note that the veins or clusters can spread into other layers, and may cause some layers to contain stones they usually wouldn't.

Non-layer stone occurs in these forms:

* Large cluster - An oval that occupies nearly half of a 48x48 block, area-wise. Only one appears per block. These average 750 stones each.
* Vein - A sinuous line of the material crosses the block. These average 100 stones each.
* Small cluster - A sprinkle of 1 to 9 adjacent tiles. Multiple small clusters of different materials may be in the same block. These average 5 stones each and do not span more than three tiles in each direction.

''The following table does not contain [[ore]]s and [[gem]]s. The types of stone listed here that do not link to their own article are generic.{{version|0.28.181.40d}}''

2009-02-28T04:26:11Z

Xaque: wikify

Although there is no exact game definition of '''fish''', for simplicity we call anything that may be ''[[Fishing|fished]]'' a ''fish''. Technically, the game treats these as [[vermin]].

The {{k|z}}-status' ''stocks'' screen defines certain (dead) creatures as fish/raw fish. These are subject to [[rotting]]/[[wear]]).

Certain larger creatures are also typically defined as fish even though they are treated as regular [[creature]]s by the game, for instance [[carp]]. They may not be caught by fisherdwarves. These larger fish can interrupt dwarves, attack, and come in [[skeletal]] and [[zombie]] varieties (which can move on land).

[[Olm]]s are the only water vermin that cannot be fished.

A '''Cage''' is a holding device. Cages cannot be made of [[stone]], but can be made of [[wood]] and [[metal]]. A cage made of glass is called a terrarium. Cages can hold an unlimited number of [[animals]] at once. Placing animals in a cage can reduce lag and reduce [[traffic]] in your hallways.

The cage can be used in a few ways:

* A [[jail]], where you designate its location to be used for [[justice]], and a [[sherriff]] will detain any unruly dwarves.
* Animal restraining device, where you simply plant it and allocate any animals you want in it. Particularily handy for keeping track of mating animals. Just throw all the animals of one type in a cage and let them sit. Soon stray deer fawns will be all over your fortress
** This is also how you go about making a makeshift [[zoo]] for [[trapped]] animals.

How exactly does the "trader requested at depot" toggle work? Which way is enabled, which way is disabled? And what does it do, even?

Edit: I got to trade with the dwarves by leaving it toggled as "r: Trader requested at depot". It took a litle while for the trade to show up. Anybody figured this out, though?

Edit: Yes, you want to leave it so it's showing the state you want - in this case "Trader requested" not "No trader needed", just like with any other toggled setting. An explanation of what it does is already provided below.

--

Toggling 'Trader Requested at Depot' will queue a job for your trader (designated under [N]obles) to show up at the trade depot. You can check the status of that dwarf at the Trade Depot (it will show their current job in light blue). If you are impatient, you can set the depot to [b] anyone can trade, in which case a dwarf with no job will trade.

I would recommend using a trader with high skill (I believe it is negociation and appraisal) to trade for you, as this will maximise your returns. --Alc 01:11, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

I added some more info, please refine as needed. It could use some better detail or a step-by-step path to build and operate a trade depot. [[User:Haddaway|Haddaway]] 20:02, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
