DF Bug Reports / Butchering cats causes trouble.

« on: August 28, 2006, 11:41:00 am »

Seems to be that the animals list isn't updated when a cat adopts a dwarf. I had queued up a bunch of cats to be butchered (which really depresses me

) but then had a couple dwarves throw tantrum because their pets had been killed. In fact I can't see any cats that are listed with owners in the list at all.

It would be good if those are listed properly. Also, if a cat that adopts someone is removed from the butcher's queue. We don't have any control over when it happens, so it's quite hard to keep from killing pets.

DF Suggestions / Specify what to load into the catapult.

I was just thinking it would be cool to be able to specirfy what to use as ammo for the catapults. Might be fun to load furniture, goblin prisoners, cows, dead bodies into the catapults.

DF Suggestions / Ability to play music in a user folder

« on: August 25, 2006, 10:07:00 am »

Since the music files are .ogg anyway, it would be cool to have a sub folder under the /sound directory that the program could look in instead of playing the standard music and would pick random songs out of and play. Or play in order if random is too much of a pain. Should be a quick change and all you would have to do is drop some .oggs (although .mp3s would be ideal) into it.

(PS: Note that I love the in-game music, but it would be cool to have some other stuff play too.)

DF Suggestions / Screen to show what all assigned jobs and what dwarves h

« on: August 24, 2006, 03:32:00 pm »

I kind of expected the job screen would tell me not only what each dwarf is currently doing, but also what dwarves I have assigned to what tasks. It seems to me that the Jobs screen and the Unit screen are very similar, just sorted differently.

What I would REALLY like to see is a list of each task and all the dwarves that have been set to do that task.

So it might say:

code:


Fishing:
     Stinky Wilzzleteat - Fisherdwarf
     Abraham Lincoln - Fisherdwarf
Architechture:
     None
Mining:
     Abraham Lincoln - Fisherdwarf
     Sleepy - Miner
     Happy - Miner
     Doc - miner

All whether or not they are currently doing the task or not. What this tells me is I managed to assign Abraham Lincoln to two tasks, both Fishing and Mining, and that there are no wells being built because I forgot to assign anyone to Architechture.

As it stands now I have to go through every single dwarf to see if I assigned anyone to do something, and it's quite tedious.
