TIP: Training Animals
« on: November 21, 2012, 11:15:02 am »
Hello.  I have been playing DF2012 since it came out, the version with Beast Training in the activity zones.  And just last night I stumbled upon a nice feature, Toady programmed into it, that I wish to share. 

Instead of navigating the popup menu, and picking an Animal Trainer, we can simply hit W or H, after highlighting the trainable entity, directly, from within the Creature list, from within the Unit list.  This to me when I found it, was a rather large time saver, as opposed to picking and assigning a dwarf each time. 

Course it spreads out the training, but if the player is diligent in using Therapist, this problem can be fixed, by limiting the dorfs with that skillset.  Sincerely, Knutor

Do that and issue the trainer. Much easier.
