Oh yeah, I changed gm-editor a lot

This seems really helpful. Would you be willing to share? (Sorry to be that guy.)

gui/gm-editor
=============
This editor allows to change and modify almost anything in df. Press :kbd:`?` for
in-game help. There are three ways to open this editor:

* Callling ``gui/gm-editor``  from a command or keybinding opens the editor
  on whatever is selected or viewed (e.g. unit/item description screen)

* using gui/gm-editor <lua command> - executes lua command and opens editor on
  its results (e.g. ``gui/gm-editor "df.global.world.items.all"`` shows all items)

* using gui/gm-editor dialog - shows an in game dialog to input lua command. Works
  the same as version above.

* using ``gui/gm-editor toggle`` - will hide (if shown) and show (if hidden) editor at
  the same position you left it

Do giant animals attack settlements? I walked in to find a giant tiger with a name assaulting the meadhall, and for some reason got spit at when I cut it down. Oddly hard fight too, but I guess everything's harder when forgoing a shield and relying on dodging so you can use a hammer and axe in either hand =.

They will walk into settlements. The animal in question likely got its name by attacking someone in the past. Like wild animals that didn't kill someone in the past won't wander into settlements usually.

Rismal has discovered that he hates bandits almost as much as night creatures. Since my last post he's cleaned out several bandit camps and a few dungeons. He also killed 4 wereantelope, a forgotten beast (a winged ash blob, what a pushover), and a dragon. He's a legendary hero thanks to those last two.

Also he just killed a swamp titan. It was a giant peaceful anteater and also a pushover.

Rismal's trophy sack is a bit lacking. All it has in it is Rismal's pet beetle, a highwood flower, a crystal glass ibu with divine fabric strings (that he can play), and a steel flask full of mixed dragon and vampire blood.

There's also an updated symbols.xml for linux 64bit, hurray!

Oh, I see what you meant now. Thank you!

(btw, if there's not a nemesis entry for a particular unit, you can't use this, right?)

its all lua scripting so it's possible to load that up. which... kinda what killed dfusion.
it a separate script I think in dfhack called adv bodyswap. but I mostly have my own version of the script so I don't use it.

Y-yeah? It doesn't seem that adv-bodyswap is packaged with dfhack anymore. And it's not a lua script iirc; it was a cpp plugin, part of advtools maybe, I think, but I haven't seen it in a build of dfhack for a while now. Does your thing work with 0.43.05?

Been trying to find the best mixture of weapons for dual wielding. So far axe-hammer seems the best, though sword-spear was successful, as was whip-dagger. Mace-dagger was bad, couldn't kill anything really. Double shields was oddly deadly, the bashes killed quite a few dingoes and goblins before I succumbed to passing out from blood loss, with a pair of fishers crushing my head in with their fists.

[Rumrusher]

oh I see max discovered how to mess with calendar.
I mostly use it to shrink the 2 week timer to "now" and get into adventure/fort mode faster, and spent 3 months trying to simulate a whole year. what i learn is... no don't do this unless your pc can go through a week in a second.

[Max™]

On smaller worlds it isn't too bad, only takes about five or six minutes for a full year on a 65x65 with a couple hundred years of history.

Oh yeah, I changed gm-editor a lot

This seems really helpful. Would you be willing to share? (Sorry to be that guy.)

gui/gm-editor
=============
This editor allows to change and modify almost anything in df. Press :kbd:`?` for
in-game help. There are three ways to open this editor:

* Callling ``gui/gm-editor``  from a command or keybinding opens the editor
  on whatever is selected or viewed (e.g. unit/item description screen)

* using gui/gm-editor <lua command> - executes lua command and opens editor on
  its results (e.g. ``gui/gm-editor "df.global.world.items.all"`` shows all items)

* using gui/gm-editor dialog - shows an in game dialog to input lua command. Works
  the same as version above.

* using ``gui/gm-editor toggle`` - will hide (if shown) and show (if hidden) editor at
  the same position you left it

There's also an updated symbols.xml for linux 64bit, hurray!

Oh, I see what you meant now. Thank you!

(btw, if there's not a nemesis entry for a particular unit, you can't use this, right?)

Put the cursor over the unit and run gm-editor, I tried a few different ways to get it to fall back to the unit entry if no nemesis id but it kept going straight to the unit instead so I went ahead and added in the fallback for animals/dummy population buffer units.

So there something fun and imaginative to see than a post apoc zombie setting having a town full of gasmask wearing army men and warlords in a bar drinking beer and telling tales out in the infected wasteland.
also fast traveling into the middle of a town expecting to be swarmed by infected only to notice their normal humans.
picked up a thief and a merc name lance, and got ambushed by dingos.
flanking in this game is great makes up for having no combat skill what so ever, like I'm sure my character couldn't even wrestle a dingo in a fair face off.
lance ran up lock a dingo around his arm and toss them behind him on steep hill.
kinda made me wish I set up my throw/jump script.
which reminds me looking after you set up the grab counts as an action. so anyone in combat here a heads up so you don't  end up dying while your looking at someone.
corrosion is a nice mod.

Launch is working fine on 64 bit now, I'm still coming to terms with that and my ability to make artifakes again.

Noticed I screwed up and originally the script looked for k.id==0, ending up with the first slab being turned into a dupe of itself and fucking shit up, when I just needed to look for k.item==nil instead.

Rismal killed two rocs in one day. The next day he killed two hydras and an ettin. The day after that he killed 14 vile creatures. I think it's time to take on a vault.

Been trying to find the best mixture of weapons for dual wielding.

Hard to say whether you would consider this "dual weapon", but I've found that open hand and dagger is a surprising powerful option.  You can use the open hand to intercept attacks and also to grab shields and helmets.  The dagger is then quite useful for opening arteries and stabbing in the head/neck.  Probably not a fantastic combo for megabeasts, but works very well for wildlife and humanoids.  I'll often go completely empty handed and draw the dagger once my opponent is vulnerable, or sometimes start off with open hand and shield, swapping out the shield for the dagger at some point (useful tip: create space, throw shield, draw dagger).

Exciting start to a new adventure.

Figured I'd be an Elf from a camp next to a dark fortress ruled by an murderous elf lady. Might go assassinate her later.

Started my adventurer only to find the camp under attack by a brooding ogre wife. About 30 hunters are about to finish her off. Will see if I can get a shot in...

--edit a few short rounds later...
Camp of elves totally slaughtered. When there was no-one left it came for me, wooden arrows bouncing feebly off it's leathery wings...

[Rumrusher]

found having a shield and a open hand works best for when you need to snap a neck and not worry about the repercussions of failing to attack
so in messing with arena news, I finally went and played around with the fact you can plant trees and use those trees to create floors in that weird void room if you dfhack cut them down. and the process seems to make a hole in the void area.

that all said saving these arenas are very very unstable some times you get it some times you don't others you just wont load if you select it.
but some day someone will figure out how to expand the world and or load up site worlds with dfhack.
