Hrm.  Can an armless dwarf or dwarf with severely damaged, unuseable arms act as chief medical officer?  Obviously he's not going to do any of the work himself, but CMO's basically just create jobs for other doctors to do, right?

They need to diagnose. Not sure if they need to be mobile or have grasping for that, honestly, although I would assume mobility is a factor. Just try it!!

Yes, they do. This isn't an issue in the caverns though as there are no underground rivers, only lakes.

does glass still have missing raws, and are glass trap components still generally useless for killing things that wear clothes?

I've have a problem with my shift key, in previous versions holding shift + arrow key would jump 10 or so at a time, however in the latest version [34_04] it's not working anymore. I'm a missing a setting somewhere? Anyone else had this?

Thanks

Running the game in Admin mode has got the shift key working.

Send that to the bug tracker with a save?

I'd hope it would be a quickie fix.

I just butchered a puppy and it gave me fat, meat, bones and skin.

Just for the record, the CMD does not have to be the dwarf who diagnoses patients.  Other dwarves with the Diagnose labor can also do it.

I don't know whether an armless dwarf can perform that labor or not.  I don't have much experience with them.

I had the same thing happen, and although I didn't investigate I think it means a necromancer has taken over that town and using it as a staging area :>

Do captured Elf (+pets) attack captured Goblins if I drop them in an arena? They seem to be hostile to undead but not to wildlife so I'm not sure if they will be hostile versus each other.

Anyone know whats the best way to reclaim and isolate a fortress in a terrifying biome before the former inhabitants come to break the spines of my dwarves?
