How to change to someone specifc?
« on: November 26, 2017, 06:24:12 pm »

So... I realy want to do something.
I've meet a really strange lizard man that I would like to control.... is there a way for me to control a specific person in adventure mode? :P

No. But try the mods forum. Dfhack has something like this probably.

Once dfhack is updated I'll see if I can't get assumecontrol.lua working with the "select previously controlled units if ran on current unit" menu I was tinkering with most recently.
