DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Goblin Items Forbidden

« on: March 27, 2011, 05:04:07 am »

I'd set the orders but Goblin items still seemed to be Forbidden.

However, for the d>b method Mr Byrne, you have just made yourself a friend

Top man, much appreciated!!

DF Gameplay Questions / Goblin Items Forbidden

« on: March 27, 2011, 02:16:34 am »

Apologies if this has been posted earlier (and also for my halfwittedness, as this is probably an easy one).

However, I can't seem to get my dwarves to auto-claim Goblin items after a siege. I have set orders to claim all dead items etc, but when the Goblins have taken a beating, all their kit is forbidden, leaving me to manually claim it all.

Is there a way?

I have also 'unforbidden' all their items in the Stocks screen in case it was that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can alter and add uniforms in the (m)ilitary menu, under u(n)iforms. You can set certain (M)aterials for each piece of equipment in the uniform. Be sure to the assign the uniform to your squads, under (e)quip.

I believe toggling uniforms replacing civ clothes is also in the military screen, under equip, by pressing (r).

I know how to equip my troops, I just want them to pick up anything better than they are currently wearing without me having to waste my time changing the uniform everytime something better comes along, I thought I mentioned that.

I think we'll ignore what seems like a bit of attitude. Firstly, there is no easy way. You can assign levels of armor so just do that.
Failing that forbid the inferior armours when you have better quality/material available.

Dwarf Fortress IS micro-management.

I got a legendary Blacksmith by having a dwarf make one Iron Anvil. He made a ☼100,000 Iron Sarcophagus... He was the Bookkeeper.
And this is relevant to the topic (and the forum section) because...?

I think it maybe points out that it may not be a bug. More the point that a dwarf doesnt necessarily 'commandeer' a workshop he is particularly skilled in. For example, I have a had dwarves without craft skills, create crafts

??

Well, I consider not using apostrophes a typo. And my grammar is just so good, that you think it's wrong, because you didn't even know you were supposed to do the things I do.

Well, my learned friend. You shouldn't start sentences with 'and'. (Just a pointer) ;-)
