Also just got this announcement again in a vanilla 40.07 fort (has happened three times in the same fort):An animal has grown to become a Troglodyte Child.
I believe this was supposed to be fixed in this or the previous version.. (40.06)QuoteStopped birth announcements for hidden creatures and separated wild/tame animal birth announcements
Specifically, my announcement appeared on a fort that had not discovered the caverns, and did not have a volcano. This would appear to qualify as a hidden creature?
Stopped birth announcements for hidden creatures and separated wild/tame animal birth announcementsIt appears that this fix did not include aging announcements.
I'm using it on linux, and the latest download seems to have some odd keybindings. I tried to adjust them in the interface file, but it didn't work. For example, the d key is "view announcements", but it's also "set building tasks/preferences". Two tasks, same key. Trying to fix it in options didn't work. Copying an interfaces file from 40.06 didn't change anything either.I'm guessing you're using DF from a package manager, or using some other third-party libgraphics (e.g. "Dwarf Fortress Unfuck") - these will not work until they're updated, since new keys were added in 0.40.07. You can try the default libgraphics with the workaround from here (point LD_PRELOAD to a 32-bit zlib - the path may vary depending on your system).
I can run it in linux under wine with the windows version, but wonder what's going on.
P.S. I'm a newb--this game is amazing. Thanks for it!

Expwnent handles the releases, actually - the current plan is to release as close to Tuesday as possible with whatever works (which is most plugins at this point, excluding advtools, fix-armory, treefarm, and rendermax, and rendermax may be fixed before then). A 0.40.08 before then (likely) wouldn't delay DFHack significantly - updating for minor releases is usually complete within 24 hours of a release.Is the DFHack labor list active in the LNP yet? The u-l command list? While I prefer DT, I've been forced to get used to that because DT doesn't deal with zombified dwarves well. Anything's better than the default interface.DFHack itself isn't in LNP yet - Quietust said he should have an official-ish build ready sometime this coming week, but there are instructions in the thread on how to get it running with .06 I think.
Yesterday I did a quick test and confirmed that TwbT works fine with 0.40.01.
(*) Eliminated an OSX key conflict for text deletionIf anyone still has problems with this in 0.40.07+, please leave a comment here.
0.40.07 is released, and it adds new labors. Hope this doesn't delay Dwarf Therapist too muchIt shouldn't - according to Quietust, the ID's of new labors are added in order, and determining which ID corresponds to which labor is fairly easy with disassembly, since there's a switch statement that converts labor ID's to human-readable names.

Obviously a case of overpopulation.
I have not looked at how dfhack goes about this but it should be possible to just have these utilities be the parent of the df process (i.e. they start it) and do without the bad CAP_SYS_PTRACE.On Linux and OS X, DFHack is loaded as a shared (?) library (e.g. libdfhack.so, libdfhack.dylib).
[HFS] metal preferences were fixed in 40.06.Note that, according to this report, this fix only applies to worlds generated in 0.40.06+ - dwarves from worlds generated before 0.40.06 can still have preferences for HFS materials.
In the readme I only found showmood and forcing moods on people... is there any way at all to stop a mood from happening, or cancel a mood?No, unless I'm misunderstanding this:
And what exactly are the minimum requirements for moods to happen. Quietust once mentioned a population of 20, but I dont know if there are any others, and if its enough to breach 20 once... if I had 21 dwarves and after that (because of death) under 20, will moods still happen, because the 20 population was reached at some point in time?
In order for a dwarf to be struck with a strange mood, three conditions must be met:
* There is no currently active strange mood,
* The maximum number of artifacts is not met,
* There are at least 20 eligible dwarves (see below), including dwarves who have already created artifacts.
If all three of these conditions are true, the game may trigger a strange mood according to the frequency.
