Small UI alteration to designating rooms
« on: May 15, 2009, 08:48:50 am »

When you make a bed room, you can leave it free to be claimed, or designate it to certain dwarf.

I'd like an option to have  soem rooms (bigger and better ones) designated not for individual dwarf, but with certain parameters.
Like having room designated for "legendary dwarfs" (any dwarf with atleast 1 legendary skill), "nobles" (Any noble, if you don't have set room for them otherwise), perhaps even by profession so the rooms near forges are designated for "metalworkers".
You could also have barracks beds dedicated to a squad, so they would use them.

This likely will happen for barracks, but what about theother rooms? Do people think this would be useful?

This dovetails nicely with assigning rooms to entity positions, which came up lately.
