DF 2012v0.34 question and answer thread

--- Quote from: BossChase on July 09, 2012, 10:33:46 pm ---I've just made 200 3x3 bed rooms. Each with a bed, chair, table, cabinet, chest, and door. My questions is what do I need to do next?
I started going to each item pressing "r" to make it a room, then assigning it to a dwarf. I was doing this for the Bed, Table, and Chair and after doing it to the first 10 rooms I'm really hoping there is an easier way or maybe if I just leave them alone they dwarfs will claim them on their own?
Thanks for the advice.

Don't bother assigning the table and chair, they'll be happy enough with the 3x3 bedroom with all that stuff crammed into it. Also, don't bother assigning the beds, dwarves will claim them on their own.

Only make room from beds and don't assign them to any particular dwarf. They will take them by themselves.
Also note when you create both bedroom and dinning room in those 3x3 squares there is decrease in value of room (I don't know the mechanics)
Nobles may need something special but that shouldn't be a problem. (When bedroom/dinning room and study are the same room they get unhappy though from speeking to liason or something like that)
Now if those beds are at same distance from each other you can use macros to simplify your job. (http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Macro)
Snaake:
I've generally assigned bedrooms manually, because I want all dwarves to have a room assigned to them ASAP after the rooms are ready. Because I'm neurotic like that. I'm thinking of switching from using 1x3 rooms to 3x3 for my future forts, just for a bit of extra challenge, and trying to make my dwarves as happy as possible, with their favorite materials used for furniture etc. Also 2 beds for couples and attached dining rooms and bedrooms for kids, if they have more family.
When (=how soon) will dwarves claim rooms? The next time they get drowsy/go to sleep? Do they just pick at random/the closest room, or do they also consider e.g. if a room has a bed/other furniture/walls/floor with a material/color they like, then they prefer that one?

This, and random room assignments I think.
peccan:
Let's try this again.
Is it possible to make a monarch come without having 140 dwarves or digging "quite deep"? My FPS cannot really handle either of those options. Looked at the raws and only found requirements for nobles.
