Dwarf Fortress > DF Modding

question about modtools

(1/1)

PopTart:
I don't see a lot of information about modtools so I'll ask it here. I'm trying to use the skill-change tool. I type into the terminal

modtools/skill-change -help

and it displays some syntax. Fair enough. But where do I get a list of the appropriate skillNames? Where do I get the target dwarf's ID?

If I run something like modtools/skill-change -skill MINE -mode set -granularity level -value 20 with a dwarf selected, it tells me "Invalid ID"

Thanks

PopTart:
Just found a list of the skill tokens. So MINE is not a skill, but MINING is. Still have a question about Dwarf ID number.

Dirst:
Not familiar with that particular tool, but you can get a creature ID by selecting it and typing cprobe in the console.

PopTart:
Many thanks, exactly what I was looking for.

PopTart:
Also realized that you can batch set everyone's nickname to be their creature ID. This is accomplished in-game in the Dwarf Manipulator (labors manager) window.
