View unit defaults.
« on: October 05, 2006, 11:34:00 pm »

I've noticed that when my fortress is swarmed with pets and I use the examine-unit option to inspect a dwarf from my units list, I will often end up zoomed on a pet that's standing over the dwarf I'm looking for, and will have to cycle through things on the square to find them.

Maybe the unit view should automatically pull dwarves to the top initially?  And maybe when you zoom to a creature from the units list, of any sort, its details should automatically be pulled to the top?

That seems quite reasonable.

Yeah, it's bugged me when another dwarf is standing on top and I go, "that's no who I'm looking for" three times before I remember the "next unit" command.
