Yeah. For what it's worth, I'm mostly just trying to look at things and go "am I just missing something with how this is meant to be done now?" and... yeah, there really isn't anything that covers what civilian alert burrows covered.

It wouldn't take much. Just some extra options at the top of burrow assignments like "all civilians" that just has it constantly keep up-to-date with any new migrants and whatnot. Can even expand it for other categories, too. Definitely needs to be something though.

Well, the claim/forbid/forbid during siege certainly does, as does just turning off work details like fishing. The only thing that doesn't apply is the "outside" bit, but the implication of that would be that wood hauling (the hauling I imagine is the one likely to put a dwarf in harm's way) would cease entirely. This mostly just has implications as to wood stockpiles transferring to other wood stockpiles. For the most part, though, all of that should apply to an aboveground fortress as well.

Ah, that's true. I wasn't thinking very hard when I wrote that lol


luckily Tarn basically set the stage for the modern take on "early access" or "donationware" and is just about the only developer I whole-heartedly trust to listen to community blathering about this or that missing feature. fingers crossed the most important things are taken care of first  :D
