The next version of Dwarf Fortress is going to be released at the start of July!
Anyone else excited?
THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!
The last thing I remember hearing about was minecarts (did that actually go in, or was it just speculation?), and it seems like this'll be more of a thread if you have any details. ;)

...the focus for this update is streamlining adventure mode, non human sites like goblin towers and elven tree cities are being re added, climbing has been introduced, you can create minor entities and trading is better.
That's all I can recall right now.
And I think that minecarts was one of the early things added in the next version.
THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!
...everyone tells me that it's a really Fun game (on the level of the epic of Fort Bronzemurder), but all of my experiences with it can be summarized as "SeaTurtle can't set tasks and thus watches his dwarves starve to death".
Every. Gorram. Time.
Why can't I micro my dwarves Starcraft-style? That'd be great!
Personally, I'm excited for Dreamhack Summer. It's a huge LAN party-- the biggest in the world IIRC-- and also a major video game tournament. For some strange reason, I'm really into the competitive Counter-Strike: Global Offensive scene right now, so this is gonna be a real treat. By the way, does anyone else watch esports here or am I the only one?
