Manager macro generator
« on: May 31, 2017, 03:54:28 am »

A simple little program that turns plain text into clean macro for manager orders that sets the items to be produced the number of times defined, adds the required material and outputs andset it to check every month.

Basically, just type in exactly what you would type in the manager screen to get the item as the top option. Then the number of items you want produced.  Then out comes a clean macro .MAC file that you can run in the manager screen. Its very handy for all those basic orders you set up every time you start a new fort.

Get the file here.

Right now its only a very basic program (might expand it when I have more time), double click the DMMG.bat file and it should work. If not try running it trough the cmd. If you do not know how to do that you can read it about it here.

If you want some pre-gened macros look here.

They decided to leave my fortress via the circus because the front door was locked to keep Goblins out.  THAT should be an interesting trip back to the Mountainhome.

Putting (int) before a character gives its ASCII value.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Now that would have saved me a lot of work if I knew that before  ::) Thanks tough!
