Mod Releases / Re: The Vilous Mod V4.4 - No witty puns this time batman!

Release 4.4 . I was originally going to wait for the next DF bugfix to release, however talyxia being unable to open doors pressured me into otherwise. This version should still work with the next DF version however.

NEVREANS:
   -clarified chief medical dwarf noble position from "headmaster" to "medical administer"
   -Land holder noble "value" corrected, and land types renamed.
      -Chief operating officer is the first land holder, and makes your settlement a company.
      -Chief information officer is the second land holder, and makes your settlement a industry.
      -Chief executive officer is the final land holder, and makes your settlement a corporation.
   -Fixed tags with a modifier number, that did not need the modifier number, such as RELIGION_SPHERE

SOUTHERN SERGALS
   -Land holder noble "value" corrected, and land types renamed.
      -druid is the first land holder, and makes your settlement a shrine.
      -acolyte is the second land holder, and makes your settlement a temple.
      -apostle is the final land holder, and makes your settlement an holy city.
   -Fixed tags with a modifier number, that did not need the modifier number, such as RELIGION_SPHERE

NORTHERN SERGALS:
   -Land holder noble "value" corrected
      -Lordess is now the first landholder
      -Queen is now the final landholder
   -Religion tags simplified
   -Fixed tags with a modifier number, that did not need the modifier number, such as RELIGION_SPHERE

TALYXIA:
   -Religion is now regional force, though the values are hardcoded currently, it should not effect talyxia religion too harshly.
   -corrected lack of [CANOPENDOORS]
   -fixed missing tools minecart and wheelbarrow

ALL OTHER CIV RACES:
   -Use the standard dwarf style names for their noble positions, and as such they did not need adjusting.

A clothier shop could do with a patch clothing reaction, and cut patches. To turn a bolt of cloth into several patches that would then be used to repair damaged clothes.

Pretty sure this could be modded in without too much trouble. Though quality levels would behave oddly. And decorations.

I'm not sure the quality and decoration system would take too much of an impact. Applying patches could simply result in: This is an candy thread shirt. It is adorned with rope reed fiber patches.

Though why not have the wearing system tied to an inherent devaluing of the product? This way repeated patches would increase the value up to acceptable wearing/happiness levels?

Just letting you know, if you don't want people to post in the old thread, as the thread creator, you can lock the thread yourself.
I never actually noticed that, It's so hidden away at the bottom of the page. Thank you for the heads up there.

Does anyone still use UNIX?

Should say a lot, UNIX is still used but it's called things like AS400, or Z/OS .

Windows is a common user OS, but most servers run some flavor of Linux (Debian, Red Hat, etc).
I'd recommend learning how to use Linux, it's quite useful (and quite different from using Windows since you can (and often have to) do things using a command prompt.).

E:
Darklord: Wouldn't a string in C also have char[11] = NULL, though? :P

Durp, terminator added to example.

Isn't Windows the most common? I just want to be able to get a job. :c

EDIT: But I need to pick one from each of those clusters as a requirement for my degree.

EDIT2: Bolded the choices according to Arx. What about the rest? I simply don't know what to think.. I just want to do whatever I have to to be able to get a job programming, with the possibility to maybe have a chance to possibly move on to vidja games once I actually learn what I'm doing! ;-;

1st category: Generally, there are some considerable differences between the operating systems and how you can program for them. Though I've mostly messed with C++ in windows 7, I can say I've run into my own set of issues when moving it back to XP. Mostly incompatible libraries. As well as the version of the c++ standard you can compile for in that system.

2nd: Alright, so this in particular is actually a very major thing depending on what language you take. To make this simple: object oriented programming has objects that can be created and reused on demand to store data, process data, or to be structures of data themselves. C++ being an object oriented language( like java ) has all the abilities of the standard C, but with object capability. Often it's more confusing to start out object oriented, but the payoff can help a lot programming.

3rd: I presume their web scripting course is front end stuff ( stuff a servers client processes, HTML, JavaScript, etc ). However the following courses have to do with things processed on the server, and than sent back to the user as a file.

4th: Looks to be general courses in each one that should go along with your prior choices.

I'm not a huge expert, and don't take what I say as perfect. Take as much advice as you need before you move on into something so you are prepared. When it comes to coding, get a general understanding of how a computer actually works. It helps massively in wrapping your head around what is the fastest and best way to code something:

For instance.

There is no such thing as a text string in any standard of C and C++. Instead strings of characters are an array of chars stored in memory next to each other ending with a terminator.

so when thinking of strings in C, you must think not like this: "hello world" but like this:

char[0] = h; //or more properly the hexadecimal value for h, as everything stores in memory is actually a length of bytes.
char[1] = e;
...
char[10] = d;
char[11] = null;
