An option to turn off the automatic pause when you encou

It's rather bothersome when you're just trying to carve out a large area in order to collapse a human temple.

Maybe you could choose which types of rock it pauses for.

It'd be nice if there was an init option to have it warn for ALL, ORE, or NONE.

Add damp/hot stone to the list, and I'm a happy camper.

(It should ideally still announce and remove the designation for that stone, but not pause.)

I was thinking the same thing.

Amen.

An in game switch (not init) would be nice because sometimes I like to be warned and other times I'm in the middle of... say... directing my army.

Also allow cancelling designation if the wall is the last tile behind which SOIL exists (behind rock, or rock behind soil) so we can carve out gigantic engravable dining rooms without running into huge veins of farmable loam halfway through that no dwarf would willingly graffiti.

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

Yes, a "Dig all," a "dig rock only," and a "dig ore only" designation would be useful.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.
