  1. I tried searching, and while I found plenty of info about alt-click to lock them, and a TON about Khaine's modlet, I can't find anything about how to unlock them again. Feeling a bit silly Cheers edit : ok, so I just had to alt-click them again. It hadn't worked any of the many times I already tried that, then I tried it while I was looking in a container instead of just at my own inventory, and it started working.
  2. In 2 minds about whether I need to start a new game. I have a game on Navezgane from A21b317, apparently I can keep playing it in b324 but will my old game have the new POIs ? Will the bits of map that have the new POIs just reset to include them ? Cheers
  3. No. If it did that you could stand next to a dew collector when it rained and collect more or less infinite water. What they could do though, which would be a nod to collecting rain without being massively OP, is leave the dew collectors ticking along at their usual pace while it's raining then set them to full when it stops raining.
  4. I probably just made a noob mistake. I cleaned out my worlds folder a couple of months ago, now I've decided to have another crack at UL. I grabbed the latest stable from the website, cleaned out the mods folder of my UL install then dropped everything from the download into the game folder. So far as I can see everything has gone where it should and UL loads ok and reports as 2.6.17, but I don't have any of the pregen maps. Is the map gen in UL working ok and I can just create one ? Cheers
  5. Awesome, I'll keep looking for it Thanks !
  6. That was interesting but I'm not sure I understood it right - do you mean that the wasteland biome doesn't boost the gamestage and lootstage any more than the snow biome, so the snow biome is the sweet spot for loot and the only reasons to visit the wasteland are titanium and bragging rights ? Cheers
  7. Don't like my chances - it was a 12km map and on one of the saves that I didn't use I went into god mode and shot straight up into the air, I could see for miles and it was just desert. Kept trying, got a forest spawn eventually
  8. Did I miss something ? I just started a new save on the DF large 2 PEP map, and my initial spawn was in the desert. So I tried again, this time I spawned in the snow. Then I tried again (about a dozen times including on the DF Large 1 map) and every time the initial spawn was either desert or snow. Is this supposed to be happening ? edit - new game number 13 (you can't make this stuff up) spawned in the forest .....
  9. When I'm upgrading is it safe to just drop the files from the zip into my game folder and replace existing files ? It's always in the back of my mind that if there are any old DF files that aren't in the new zip because they're no longer required this won't get rid of them. Also, the new zip has both a zipped and an unzipped PEP-POIExpansionPack in the mods folder - do I need to have the zipped one in my mods folder or is it just a (very welcome) copy of the PEP pack that I can use in non-DF games ? Cheers
  10. I should have just gone straight to your channel, I even remember watching that video when you posted it 🤣 Then I'd have known I should be looking for 'lockable' in the crafting menu not 'storage'. What a noob mistake 😂😂🤣 Thank you
  11. What's the storage container with the most slots that I can make in DF ? I'm using writable storage which has a good number of slots but I'm sure I once saw a video with someone using something (cupboards?) with way more slots. Cheers.
  12. I'm having trouble killing scorpions. Well I can kill them ok but they don't die (kind of appropriate for a zombie game), after I kill them the console pops up a red error and the scorpion just sits there twitching. I was having the problem with all scorpions until I updated from 2.6.12 to 2.6.17, now I think I can kill the desert and snow scorpions but in the wastelands I still have issues. Anything I can do about this or just be glad of an excuse not to do wasteland hordes and it'll eventually work itself out ? Cheers
  13. *cough* grow lights, and irrigation, and scarecrows ... I did read the journal. I'm happy to be proven wrong but I didn't stumble across anything about irrigation and how to do it and why I might want to, and why I might want to throw down a scarecrow ... SnowBee's video showed me why I should irrigate and how to do it, and this forum told me about scarecrows. Sure the scarecrow tells you what it does but you only see that if you already know you want one and are looking at it. One of the things I really liked about DF when I started playing it was how I didn't know what I could and couldn't do, and how so much didn't work the way I was used to, and that there was so much I had to either stumble across or hear about from other people, just like it would be in a real zombie apocalypse - and this is a great example. I knew I could grow crops and I knew they needed water but that was about it - beyond the basics it's something that has to be discovered.
  14. You can do what ??? How does that work ? What I think I just read was dig down two layers and lay the pipes then put dirt blocks / farm plots on top of the pipe and 1 block to each side ?? So every third row in the farm has a pipe running under it ? My rain catchers dried up after the rain stopped (they didn't last time I did a DF playthrough, that was quite a surprise) so I think I will have a look at irrigation ! Thanks !
