c: Zoom - Cre ____ A quick Suggestion
« on: July 23, 2010, 12:25:27 am »

1) In Standard DF go to an idling dwarf in a group of tame animals by pressing u to view the untis screen.
2 Then scroll to your dwarf
3) Then press c: Zoom Cre
4) Then press v: Next 30 times to get to your dwarf in mention.

My suggestion is to directly skip 4. Getting the attention of the dwarf you want immediaty. The computer already knows what dwarf you want to select, the rest is just inconvience.
What are your thoughts on this.

PS (Sorry bout spelling im drunk)

It's even worse when you're trying to see a specific cow in a pile of identically named cows.

How would your cows be identically named? What are the odds of that even happening?

Pretty high apparently. Stray Cow was a really popular name this decade.
