Heartmine - 876 Mid Spring by itg_

Map Description:

Megafort containing, among other things, a colony on the magma sea floor, a werebeast-powered lunar calendar, and the first skyfort built with cave-ins ON.

Point of Interest: Lunar Calendar--Mechanism

( 824 Late Summer → 901 Mid Spring )

This is the mechanism for the lunar calendar. The werebeast (one z-level down) triggers a pressure plate every time he transforms, opening the hatches on this level, and sending the minecarts around the loop, which set the bridges of the display. See the forum thread for more details - itg_

The HTML5 map viewer is currently in Alpha mode - I'm actively trying to develop new functionality.

There should be many very obvious problems with the viewer; please check the Issues page to notify or comment on the most egregious problems to help me prioritise. The most common will be Loading... with an error in the browser developer tools console. e.g. RangeError: Offset is outside the bounds of the DataView. Feel free to report a problem with a link to the problematic map or point of interest.

How long did it take you to cast that magma cistern? Also you are a grandmaster at DF.

Thanks! It's hard to say how long it took since I put the project on the back burner a few times. Maybe 15 years?

Awesome. I can barely imagine what it'd be like as a young dwarf arriving at this massive fortress for the first time, setting eyes down on the great staircase from the bridge above.

It's about 30 with temperature off. I keep my population at about 100 and am constantly dumping surplus items into the abyss.

One of the better fortresses in recent memory! Awesome work - how long IRL have you been churning out this beast?

Submitted by: itg_ - 2014-04-28 to 901 Mid Spring

About a year, on an off. I haven't put nearly as much work into it since the beginning of this year, since I've been waiting for the new release.
