My Whitelist Request: Your experience with BTW? I have played on and off for over a year and a half, and haven't played much recently because of other games with friends. Why do you want to join this specific server? I'd like to join a server so that my time playing Better Than Wolves means more, a...

Yeah, they've become a fad on my friend's server as well. Better yet, Mojang has created accounts that will never change for some of those blocks!

In the early game I usually burrow into a cliff-side so I can use my entrance design. I place a door 3-5 blocks off the ground in the cliff from the inside. A ladder leads up to this door, and I use 1x2 vertical slits to see out of (and shoot out of). No block destroying needed, and nothing can get ...

Got an issue. I put a probe into orbit around the Mun, but can't get a reading from my gravioli detectors. I try, then it says it can't be done right now, and the button to take the measurement goes away until I relog. I'm at 150 km, and have enough power, so I don't get what's wrong. Bug, or a sill...

I could only find this for transferring crew between parts. Less than ideal it may be, but it does have that functionality.

Wow, I totally thought that asparagus-ing was legitimate game-play. I was even annoyed by it, primarily because of the tedium of building them. My natural instinct was to think, "I can do it, and it works good, so I should do it." Yet again, an example of players not knowing what's best fo...

This game looks like a lot of fun, but I am a bit worried that it will go the way of Minecraft. Quote of DaveChaos' Let's Play: "No no, he will own you!" "Is there any disadvantage to dying?" "No" "Then lets just go for it!" Also, I really hope that there are ...

Yup, I agree that tripwires have little place as they are. The idea of string "tugging" for signal transmission is quite seductive though. On occasion, I have considered transmitting a signals within my base for more automatic systems, but brushed it off because of the cost of the redstone...

This is exactly why I recently settled in an extreme hills biome: interesting terrain. Seriously, try the seed "booties". Awesome extreme hills, with cool cliffs and caverns. They are the only biomes that give me that sense of awe, besides ravines of course. Its unfortunate that it is so i...

...My games seem to be routinely lasting 30-50 turns vs other players... Yes, I experience this too. Last night, I had a 45 turn game against another Energy where he decimated two idols fairly early. I was able to suppress his units with what he called "dishonorable combos" and lucky spel...

With my slightly altered Energy deck, I always have a really rough start: particularly when going against Order and Growth. Like, the first 10 or more turns consist of me being torturously overwhelmed and pummeled by my opponent. I frequently pull it out though, building a mass of power by the end t...

Yeah, I'd love to see that game back up, so go ahead and try. I just wanted something that we could do right now , and not have to wait for any democratic process. I haven't ever gotten far enough into the game to know what all of those things entail anyway. I just wanted to play DF with some other ...

Album: http://imgur.com/a/Nb3Do Year 1 1st of Granite, 251 Its a dingy lot, but it'll do. Fortresses are built on the backs of tough dwarves, not charming royals and merry men. We left the Mountainhomes in moderate spirits, which quickly faded along our long trek. Arrival at Houndmurdered (Rorungusa...

http://i.imgur.com/JW1suBA.png Someone popped up not long ago, wanting to do a Dwarf Fortress succession game, but it didn't come to anything. Let's try again! Everyone is welcome, even if you are new to the game. Rules: 1 Each player plays in the fortress for a maximum of one year, but may complet...

Thanks for taking a look, as that is a fantastic design. I'll invent my own design for my purposes, so know that no one is waiting on you. I also noticed recently that my sand pusher tree harvester broke because of a change to how pistons function. Shoving a block under a pushed upwards sand block b...

I believe that your compact soul bottler may be defunct, and I believe equally strongly that I wasn't able to reproduce it right from the pictures. My problem is that the urn dispenser toggles twice because of the BUD detecting the detector block going on and going off. The urn doesn't fill enough t...

I successfully installed Convenient Inventory, and it seems to be working fine.

Ferrus.Manus wrote:Yeah, I used to use convenient inventory before it was no longer updated.

Its updated now, if not with some reports of bugs. I haven't encountered any.

I use CraftGuide, and used InventoryTweaks before it switched to Forge-only. Since managing abundant material wealth without the latter is an annoyance, Convenient Inventory will most likely replace it.

Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.

...it is keeping me so busy just trying to stay fed that I have little time to do other tasks in the game. I had a bit different experience, unless you are speaking of the first three days. The first two days were all about hunting and cooking, and then I went mobile to search for villages. After t...

*raises hand* I'm in! I am not adept in my skill, but I think I could manage it for a year without utter destruction. My knowlege of how to work with the military and unusual embarks is pretty flimsy, so that should make for lots of nearly fun experiences.

Man, I love this stuff... While the explosive theories are fun and would surely be an explanation, I tend to think that FlowerChild would stick to a story that is consistent with Minecraft and BTW. He's all about internal consistency in games. So we may want to lean towards theories that include ele...

Also PvP, although as I mentioned earlier, they basically made the trapped chests obsolete as soon as they implemented them by having comparators measure inventory contents. The difference between having a trap go off when you open a chest, versus when you remove an item from it, is negligible, mak...

Indeed, the Nether is quite interesting. Does anyone have an explanation for why you can make redstone from hellfire dust and gold? Seems to me that hellfire dust is just Netherrack with the souls removed. Add gold to that, and you get an completely different substance. Is Redstone gold that has bee...

*snip* Oh, I definitely see what you mean. That's why I didn't want to do a film where causality is "instantly" linked, such as Looper. Though, I have made it difficult for myself due to my time machine of choice. While this method of time travel may be more realistic in the fact that it ...
