okay time to give dorf fort a shot myself!!! i am setting a 2-hour timer once worldgen is finished so i don't come to at like 11 pm or something dumb

this seems like a smart policy in general to keep yourself from getting lost in various sauces

PROBABLY, YEAH,,,. it's especially important with this since even Apollo lost a full 11 hours to this game

you might want to set more than one alarm, even

it's been two hours according to plurk

I want to see a progress report and proof you are not getting Cave Acclimated

I said two hours after worldgen and I'm getting off now!

Can do on the progress report, though.

So! It's currently mid-summer, middle of Malachite. Here's the surface level of the settlement, I took advantage of a nearby hill.

Bedrooms, fishery, carpenter. Gathering are to drink, the stockpile to the east of it is full of edible, but non-prepared foods.

Second level! A bunch of workshops and stockpiles, mostly. Only notable thing here is that there's a prepared meals and drinks stockpile that leads up to the gathering area, and the farming plots were SUCH a pain that I have some unused space there that I don't know what to do with from failed plots.

Third level! I finally hit rock here, so I'm setting up all the forging, masonry, etc. workshops. I was about to get started on For Real mining when I got interrupted by having to finish.

v nice

Current plans amount to basically just rearranging the orientation of stockpiles so that they're less clunky and getting started on actual mining; I'd like to find some ore soonish.

Once mining is started, I'm probably going to give the important areas some proper floors to make the dorfs happier, and probably double up important workshops like carpenter and stoneworker- THAT'S what I can use that empty space in the farm area for, I'm a genius!

Are there any, like, obvious glaring holes I should be fixing ASAP?

....GAH DAMN ITi need to move that chair and table down

okay tdl for when i get another chance to play

>set up militia

>perpetual work order for cooked food

>set up bedrooms for next wave of dorfs
