It sounds like they have made an enterprise resource planning system for DF. That's very interesting.
That may also be why I never got into DF, it sounds like too much work. Like actual work.
- intended 14y agoNah, thats just DF Hack, it adds lots of plugins and functionality that the more advanced DF player starts hankering for after a while. The base game with a wiki, a tileset, and dwarf therapist, will be accessible and fun for the average HN visitor. The ERP aspect of it is for people who just want to reach that level of gameplay. I don't. I just mass produce my stuff and never run out of goods.
- gchpaco 14y agoI find that with large forts the "rolling resource shortage" problem is really obnoxious. Things like "oh, my idiots turned all the wood, the wood I needed for beds, into charcoal" get my goat. Actually solving the steel shortage problem is really difficult; ERP is not a bad comparison for that, which is made especially difficult because as your dorfs get better at tasks they get significantly faster. A master armorsmith can kill 100 bars of steel in very short order. I will admit I have more sophisticated desires / needs, though.
