Nice, a bug that can be turned into in a witty DF cliché!

The stray (tame) horse cancels drown: unconscious.

I'm not sure how I should be testing it out, but I can see the other OGame boards if that's you mean.

Same here.

Couldn't you "just" irrigate the farm plot with 1/2 levels deep water? It would be tiresome to do, but with a pond zone (?), you would be able to raise the fertility with a few dwarves and a few buckets? Considering he has dwarves to spare...

As I understand it, you can do five things with plants:
eat them,
cook them,
brew them,
thresh them (at the farmer's workshop), or
mill them.

Cooking destroys seeds.  Everything else leaves seeds.

On the fertilizer, I have no idea.  The current game balance already seems to produce lots and lots of food.


Woops, forgot about milling and threshing. Since they aren't going to give you booze, and plump helmets aren't threshable and millable, brewing without cooking seems the best option, considering you can cook booze (even if it's not as satisfactory as cooking real stuff).

The quarry bushes not yielding seeds seems like a bug, you may want to report it or check the inventory of the farmer's workshop and the inventory of the farmer when you process them.

Also, cook the leaves if you aren't doing it already.

Good luck with learning DF! Anyways:

1) To get seeds from any plants, you need to brew them (cooking 'em will destroy the seeds). I'm not sure about brewing the leaves, through.

2) Did you buy potash or blocks of potash? 'cause potash comes in bars (but it's not specificied).
If your potash is in blocks, then it is construction material and thus is useless for anything but stuff requiring blocks and walls/floors.

Also, the Wiki is your friend! Just do't use it too much or you will be kinda spoiled.

DF doesn't need wifi.
DF just needs computational power.

DF needs to download the last version of itself, so that he can take another step towards sentience and world-domination! Also, (temporary) forums needs interwebz to get on.

Meh, It seems I have a rank of "Newcomer", and thus can't even have access to the member list, so talk about circular messages...

Alternatively, a car makes an awesome Faraday cage. (You can be struck by lighning and the car (and you) will still be operational.
So, get a kick-ass battery, a wifi/3G antenna, and adaptators, and you will be able to go on the interwebz in an emp storm (at least, you could play Dwarf Fortress :p)!
