Child Labor
« on: April 29, 2010, 03:51:50 pm »

Is it possible to get your dwarf kids to do a little work? Is there an entry somewhere in the raw folder that would allow them to also haul stuff in addition to merely deconstructing?

FTFY.

Arguably, it should be okay to enable the appropriate craftsworking labor on a Legendary Child who produced an artifact by means other than possession.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

I knew about the deconstruction, but I didn't know that dwarf therapist could do that. Or that dwarf therapist is working on 0.31.03.

I assumed that it was more than just an "interface disabled" kind of issue. That's interesting.

I prefer the menacing spike solution to the problem.  Set up enough near the statue and pull the lever, and your children will be a task to be hauled, rather than limited to hauling tasks.
