Checking Temperature of surrounding area?
« on: December 30, 2011, 06:38:22 pm »
Hey,

I was just wondering since I've not played DF in a while and I have since forgotten this tid bit.  How do you monitor what the temperature of the area around you is?  I've embarked in a Scorching biome and I just wanted to check it time by time to see if it cools at any point, not that I'm expecting it to with me being on a desert island and all.

I don't think you can :(

Other than using a water thermometer or something...

Try using the "Probe" tool from the dfhack utility program.
