Is there a script to delete an item on cursor?
« on: April 04, 2015, 01:05:33 pm »
As title says, I'm looking to see if there are any dfhack commands to delete items on cursor without building an atom smasher.

I just don't like to see isolated items in unreachable places just randomly strewn.

You can just use d-b-h to hide them.

does hiding them permanently get rid of them though?

No. You can use some form of autodump (possibly "autodump-destroy-here", although you should check the DFHack readme).

There was a typo in the siegers' campfire code. When the fires went out, so did the game.

"autodump-destroy-item" sounds like what you're looking for. For bulk work you're stuck with autodumping everything into one tile, then using "autodump-destroy-here" on that tile.
