Just noticed this:



Is there any difference between those two activities?

According to Toady in another thread, concerning green "Worship" and magenta "Worship!", the difference is the green one can be overridden by other jobs.  The magenta one is more... engaging.

Interesting. I was wondering what the colors meant.

Yeah, the green one is an activity they do when they don't have other activities. The magenta one is the satisfaction of an important need for the dwarf, and they will keep at it until they are satisfied above other things.

the question I have though...does socializing in a tavern (fort members only) increase relations like standing idle does?

Standing idle can result in marriages fairly quick in confined areas...but I never saw anything move when I gave my people nothing to do and they spent all their time socializing in the tavern instead of idling at a meeting spot.

If it doesn't...then taverns break marriages (sorta...certainly doesn't help)

They should have a "increasing fortress population" activity.
