    Reminder to keep your Doctors stress free

    Reminder to keep your Doctors stress free

    My fort has been on a bit of a downward spiral, dwarves dying, others getting depressed and throwing tantrums, fighting, dying again, a lot of injuries, so the hospital has been overwhelmed. So my fort Doctor apparently got so stressed out and fed up with having to take care of endless stream of injured dwarves, that he went berserk in the middle of performing a surgery and decided to lower his workload by swiftly butchering every single person in the hospital. Zero survivors, Zero shame.

    a lot of innocent dwarves head sailed off in an arc that fateful day.

    Science: For agriculture, one tile in DF is at least 5 hectares and medium-sized world is exactly equal to the area of the Earth

    Posted: 20 Sep 2020 07:52 PM PDT

    An average farmer can produce food for 6.5 people on 1 tile without fertilizing, whereas in the Middle Ages it took at least 2 acres of arable land to feed one person, so one tile in DF is equal to at least 5 hectares. Thus, the area of the medium-sized world is exactly equal to the area of the Earth.

    Calculation:

    Farm size calculations

    " each of which consumes 7 urists of food and drink per dwarf per season"

    " each planted tile will yield a stack of 1-9 plants each harvest cycle "

    "5 plants per harvest (mid-level farmer with fertilization or legendary farmer without fertilization) "

    -》about 3 plants per tile for mid-level farmer without fertilization

    * Harvest Per Tile Per Year of most of the plants is 12

    * Brewing always quintuples stack sizes

    =3*5*12=180

    180/(7*4)= 6.42857142857≈6.5

    the area of one tile:

    2acre*6.42857142857= 52031.0111m2>5hectares=0.05km2

    the area of the medium-sized world:

    129*129*16*16*48*48*0.0520310111= 510697963.614 km2

    And the surface area of earth is 510072000 km2

    Toady One must have done some math.

    It tells us why medium-sized worlds are 129*129 instead of 128*128 or 100*100, why a world tile has 48*48 local tiles instead of 32*32 or 50*50.

    Assault! Cry generals fearing to halt;

    Unceasing, the general fears no assault.

    No fault! cry the bloodthirsty troops of basalt;

    Squad basalt does what's told, they do not fear fault.

    Exalted in blood, generals fear their gestalt;

    gestalt seeing leaders fear lack of exalt.
