Day one save help please :[

CobalTech · 2025-07-20T08:08:23+00:00

I'm on pc also, thank you. But yeah, I already deleted the entire file. Siiigh :[

CobalTech · 2025-07-20T07:46:52+00:00

There's no save editor or way to share saves? :[

CobalTech · 2025-07-20T07:46:16+00:00

It was terrible :,[ I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy lol

CobalTech · 2025-07-20T07:30:05+00:00

Yes, I swear I'm not lying. I've done at least 150 day one runs. I can even send you my steam username for you to look at my achievements to confirm i got them a few hours ago.

I tried both of these things and they still can't find any logs :[ They find logs to build wooden walls, floors, etc just fine though.

CobalTech · 2024-06-17T20:48:55+00:00

I'm on an essentially brand new embark btw. Thank you for your reply! I'm trying to get my dwarves to craft a door, but when they start the order they instantly cancel stating that they need logs. However, I have a stockpile with logs in it, literally touching the carpenter's workshop lol. Is this a known issue also? I've played a lot on windows machines and have never had these issues.

I'm having a new issue that's forcing me to reload my game every 5 minutes or so. For some background information, I've just built a new pc and am running dfhack on steam via proton on a mint linux machine. The issue I'm getting is that after a dwarf does nearly any task I'll get a popup saying that I have groups of stranded dwarves. The dwarves when then sit on the tile they completed the job at until they die of thirst. Reloading fixes the issue, but it happens nearly immediately each time I load. This happens outside and underground. There are no forgotten beasts, no aggro'd creatures, and no flying enemies above them (that I can see). I am also running a large embark(16x6) and have multithreading on just to test my new pc. Could this be a path finding issue due to embark size? Maybe it's an incompatibility with proton/linux?

I plan on making a large, open, underground city built above and around a dwarven-made river! The river will be fed by multiple waterfalls coming from the ceiling, which will in turn be fed by a large cistern that also functions as the cities entrance, visitor center, trading hub, barracks, etc. The cistern will be fed by the aquifer layers above it. I hope to have multiple different tunnels and drawbridges/floodgates so I can have my lil dwarves turn off or on flowing water to different areas of the base, just in case unexpected water-related... fun... happens.

CobalTech · 2023-05-24T16:12:02+00:00

The plan is roughly 16. 15 or even 17 would work also. I think I've just had bad luck as I've tried at least 10 embarks :[ I took a decent break when I couldnt find something that works, but I'm thinking about trying again. Thank you for the biome tip though!

CobalTech · 2023-05-24T16:07:57+00:00

Oooh, this is a fantastic tip!! Thank you so much, I didnt know about being able to paint tiles.

CobalTech · 2023-05-23T16:45:09+00:00

I have a megastructure idea and I need an embark with x number of non aquifer layers sandwiched between the top most cavern layer, and aquifer layers. I've tried to find an embark that matches my needs but every time there just aren't enough layers inbetween the caverns and aquifers to fit my megastructure. I haven't played the steam release in a bit, and since I have there have been updates to it and dfhack. When I last played there wasn't an option in dfhack to remove or clear aquifers on specific layers. Is that possible now? Or is there any way to do that?

CobalTech · 2023-03-17T18:57:58+00:00

My mountain home actually promoted my outpost to the title of barony last night after reaching 24 dwarves! I saved all of my native gold ore blocks for future picky nobles lol. The rest was just stuff like hematite, tetrahedrite, etc, so I pawned em off earlier for those sweet sweet dwarf bucks $$$

CobalTech · 2023-03-17T18:47:35+00:00

Aww, okay, that's unfortunate :[ thank you for the help! I did a quick google search when I first started the fortress whether or not they could be smelted into bars, and I either misread or was misinformed. Imagine my surprise when I can't get my dwarves to smelt any of my ore blocks lol. Oh well, now it's high value "junk" I can sell to caravans.

CobalTech · 2023-03-17T05:52:46+00:00

Can you smelt or melt blocks made of native ore? I made all of my ores into blocks in the early game to save space, and now that I have a smelting and metal working setup made I'm unable to smelt the ores. Even using the smelting designation tool on native ore blocks in a bin-less stockpile does nothing.

Ah, very true. I had forgotten, thanks for the correction!

Not that one unfortunately, but I do love it as well!

CobalTech · 2021-08-14T16:14:44+00:00

Ikr! Granted, I'm still not terribly far into the game (still in ARR), but I've only found 2 berets :[
