DF General Discussion / Re: Future of the Fortress
« on: May 06, 2022, 05:47:13 pm »
Is there a matrix/spreadsheet screen planned that has skills in columns with rows being dwarves?  Many city builders based on DF have this type of screen to quickly isolate/find which citizens are the best at things and it would help build initial militaries and finding the best gem setter in the fortress when needed.

This bug?
Shoot I searched the tracker for a while and didn't see anything thanks for finding that.
I'm not crazy (at least in that respect).

No it's vanilla through and through.  I was hoping someone would corroborate my findings but apparently it's just me.

I think this is a bug, traded-for  scrolls don't go to the finished goods stockpiles for me.

These are written books if that makes a difference.

Every time I buy books from merchants they sit at the Trade Depot.  I figured they would be finished goods, I don't mess with Types that much.
I noticed Sheets is its own category but I made a stockpile of those and they weren't hauled.

Is there a trick to get my purchased scrolls/codices and whatnot out of the rain and away from Keas who like poetry?

They do get hauled to bookshelves when I construct them, but many times I'm not ready for a library.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Tricks to force patients to stay?

I might have to, similar to locking in gem setters with specific statues to improve.

I still think a "Go see the Doc!" button would be great.

Well they do but not all wounds are taken care of.  If I would guess I'd say once whatever wounds are stopping them from getting up (leg?) are taken care of, they leave AMA with open cuts in hands and head and whatever wasn't taken care of before then.

DF Gameplay Questions / Tricks to force patients to stay?
« on: February 17, 2021, 08:34:47 pm »
My dwarf patients consistently get up and leave before they are all done.  Usually it seems if one leg ends up getting a crutch/cast , then they get up and go, with other parts still torn open.  I wish there was a "Confine to Bed" option on the Health screen somewhere ... forcing the dwarf to get reevaluated by a doctor and retreated.

Any tricks to keep them in the hospital until they're fully healed?  I'd rather not do burrow tricks.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Militia Commander offsite... help?
« on: May 14, 2020, 11:59:30 am »
I had this happen to me half my army went somewhere and never came back.  Several raids with other squads came and went fine.   I eventually had to go to a previous save several years prior.  :(   Maybe someone else has a trick.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Love the aquifer changes
« on: February 05, 2020, 11:31:38 am »
I tried to dig down a 5 tile wide ramp through the slow aquifer, building wood walls or smoothing stone as I went along, and failed miserably as too much water collected at the bottom and made it a danger to work on.   I couldn't figure out how to bucket out the water to the outside.

I'll have to keep working at it or prepare better so I can do it next time.  Would be nice for someone to post a video of how they conquer the new aquifer.

DF Gameplay Questions / Multiple chances for guild halls ?
« on: February 05, 2020, 11:22:36 am »
I'm finding the time between the accepted petition for a guild hall, and them getting fed up and removing the request to be a little short.  So I've failed a couple guild hall requests as I was mining/smoothing/decorating a hall for them.   Do you know if a guild will request a hall later on again, or is it a one-shot deal  ?   I'd hate to miss out just cause I wanted them to have good first impressions.

Do you link workshops to specific stock piles?  Try removing all links to stockpiles.

I hope the steam version is updated with all future new changes in a timely manner.

My theory (and hope) is perhaps a feature-length Dwarf Fortress documentary will be made by someone.  All this based on "material needs preparing" comment.  Also part self-projecting, because I also have had lofty plans of doing a DF documentary in the past.  :)

Three Toe story collection would be interesting, too.
