Sort by custom profession?
« on: December 11, 2007, 07:10:00 pm »

All my legendary stonecrafters and miners are clogging up the craftdwarves menu when they have since moved on to other professions. Is there a way I can make their new professions stick if they have legendary skill in them?

I don't believe so, not in-game.

I think enough is understood about memory hacking that a utility could be made to do it.  Either change the current dwarf type field, or rearrange the order that the skills are listed in the skill struct vector.  One or the other should work.

I'm not volunteering though.

If those dwarves surpass their xp in mining with the new skill they will go to a different profession.  Obviously the problem now is that they have I think 20k xp in mining at least and they would have to pass that to change professions.
