Is it possible to change the skills of dwarves with dfhack? If so, how do you do it? I could not find it on the readme. Thanks.

[thistleknot]

there's a script that does it. I think its superdwarf. u can use the individual commands in the script to run it in the built in lua interpreter

Superdwarf is just fastdwarf for a single creature. Also, I have no idea how to use lua, df companion, or commands other than the preprogramed ones.

[thistleknot]

check my signature, my scripts.

wait... I never did skills.

but I have the original link in the thread

http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/User:Vjek#armoks_blessing

that script modifies skills.  You can open it up, edit the values you want it to set to, and then run it

[someone12345]

Which values control the level the unit is set to? I do not want to make this dwarf a legendary. Also, which values correspond to each level?
function LegendaryByClass(skilltype,v)
unit=v
   if unit==nil then
      print ("No unit available!  Aborting with extreme prejudice.")
      return
   end

utils = require 'utils'
local i
local skillclass
   for i=0, 115 do
      skillclass = df.job_skill_class[df.job_skill.attrs.type]
         if skilltype == skillclass then
            print ("Skill "..df.job_skill.attrs.caption.." is type: "..skillclass.." and is now Legendary for "..unit.name.first_name)
            utils.insert_or_update(unit.status.current_soul.skills, { new = true, id = i, rating = 20 }, 'id')
         end
   end
end

Rating refers to skill level. 20 is legendary+5, 0 is dabbling, 1 is novice, etc.

[someone12345]

Rating refers to skill level. 20 is legendary+5, 0 is dabbling, 1 is novice, etc.

So you would replace { new = true, id = i, rating = 20} with 5 if you wanted a proficient dwarf?

[Putnam]

Yes, { new = true, id = i, rating = 5}.

Also, just for skills there is make_legendary found here.
(rather than using armoks_blessing which does a lot of other things at the same time.)

Just make sure you're using the right version of the script with the right version of dfhack.

In particular, the newest version of the script with the newest released version of dfhack.  the .unk1 fields are from the old versions of the scripts.  They're only there for users still using 34.10 of both df and dfhack.

[Journier]

hmm ok double checking

[Doktoro Reichard]

There's this script also, that also seems to work in the 2012 version. I've used it and it works... not much to say other than this.
