uniform export/import
« on: July 15, 2010, 02:58:53 am »

uniforms should get some export/import and maybe a copy function, because its damn annoying if you set up a couple of armors (various weapons and stuff) have to leave your fort and start annew... maybe a couple of times

Umm... I think it's a good idea, but I think it's also fairly self-explanitory, and can't really add anything to it, specifically, and I don't often post if I don't feel there is something to add.

Of course, I did mention and link this in my broader attempt at export/import of dwarven AI scripts.

Yeah, sometimes an idea is such a no-brainer that there's not much to be said about it. Although we first need to see the uniforms we specify actually used by dwarves... after tha then saving them would definately be useful.

Saving the uniforms would encourage people to get more elaborate with their uniform designs, with colors and special socks or whatever. :)

high boots dont work with socks anyway :p

but i use 6 kinds of uniform... 3 of them full replacing sets and the other 3 mere armor+weapon over clothing its annoying to redo them every time i start a new fort :( i tried to save them with a macro the last time, hope that helps as workaround in the meantime

I'm just adding its a good idea. I know how we get standard uniforms, maybe we should have a text file somewhere, so that we can have our own custom starting uniforms. If we dont already. I've honestly never looked. But I assume it would have been mentioned somewhere I've been.
