Mouse Fortress provides a framework for defining and executing custom hotkeys (button presses and combinations) and menus (in the style of a context menu). These menus and hotkeys can do anything from executing keypresses to dragging around the camera, to sending commands to DFHack. You can define multiple sets of menus and keys, and swap freely between them, making it easy to have different loadouts for different playstyles, as well as for fortress or adventure mode.

If you've found a bug, or would like to give some feedback or suggestions, you can drop it in the forum thread, the project's issues page, or in github's comment system, or you can contact me (shukaro@gmail.com).

Minor update + added a demonstration video.

Humm? It says 1.4b but this is the first time I see it. I wonder if I should?
I'm hesitant to install it as it will be one more app for which I'll have to wait to update, aslong with Therapist and DFhack. How's it perform?

It is a great utility, saving you a lot of scrolling with the arrow keys. It really shines in look and view modes (d, v, t). And if you want to do some old fashion designating you just alt-q, and cursor tracking is off (do it again, and it is back on).

Unfortunately you are right, you will get addicted to it, it gets indispensable after you get used to it. But so far it has been updated with only a very short delay with each new release.

Screw those fancy menus, i'm taking it just for the GREAT EPIC AWESOME !!DWARVEN!! mouse controls!

:O

Is that... a right-click menu? In Dwarf Fortress?

This is groundbreaking.

[Dwarf_Fever]

Retarded question, probably. Why does right clicking always minimize my Dwarf Fortress main window?

The Mouse Fortress menu does pop up, though, but this sort of defeats the purpose. XD

Don't play in full screen mode. Play in windowed mode, and the minimizing will go away.

WOW! Great work!
It's possible to give cutting tree work or mining?
Is possible to control military by mouse?

PS. Ah, wait, designations are possible.

PS2. Ok, this need some working still. How can I zoom out? Earlier I used mouse scrolling.
X cursor run like mad.
