How to heal dwarfs?
« on: November 06, 2007, 09:00:00 am »

I've got dwarf with injured left hand (it's red). It do nothing but resting in his bed, consuming food and water. He's hand is red during 2 seasons and he's resting all that time. Do i need some special equipment to make him healed

Also how to force dwarfs pick up leather armor I've made? I've assigned in their "soldering and hunting" menu to use leather armor but they simply ignored armor, lying in stockpiles  :(

thanx for help

As the first, healing just takes time. Nothing you can do to speed it up I'm afraid. And as to the second they should automatically collect them, however they will only do this if you have hunting enabled as a job or if you make them into soldiers.

Check that they don't already have armour, use the v command, and then nventory
