Problem with designating
« on: April 21, 2018, 05:45:00 am »

After some time of playing, it is impossible to 'd'esignate anything. In the sense that in the 'd' menu, I cannot mark any area for mining. It seems like the 'Enter' to start marking mode is ignored. Does anyone else have the same problem?

I do not know what causes this. It is cured by save & reload, fortunately. Playing latest version, vanilla, no dfhack.

You've probably hit auto designating ores/gems by mistake (a). Tap (a) a few times to rotate back to "Designating All". Easily done.

The problem is, the green plus sign sometimes cannot be set with enter. No, 'a' is not touched. Maybe it is just my new keyboard, and I press 'shift' instead of 'enter'. Will have to watch this.

Edit: had the problem again. I pressed 'enter' key, but the green plus sign could not be set.
