some thoughts off the cuff, (havent read all the suggestions so some mb repeats, also dont know how much of this possible)
*a kind of suspend state, for faster loading.
*monthly autosaves.
*also dont need so many backups, just one or two. mb a quick rename. (obviously these things can be done quickly enough without a mod, but still)
-
*combat control. get the stupid dwarves to stop attacking, if necessary.
*get marksdwarves to fetch ammo instead of trying to bash the fire breather.
*train marksdwarves - assign training job? something like that to get the marksdwarves to actually use those targets (consistently).
*equipment check. they don't go out without their equipment. or at least a way to quickly check what equipment is not being worn (despite the useless check in equip) (seems like something for therapist)
*get the soldiers to drop the bin theyre hauling. ditto civs, when theyre running from something (canceling the job doesnt work)
*fire control- dwarves running around with buckets trying to put out the fires
* someway to know my farmer is fighting capuchins.
-
*fps check. could there be a way to see exactly what is killing fps? some kind of process manager.
*pathing. where exactly are the biggest pathing problems.
-
*farm manager- how much food/drink will the farms produce, factoring in level of planter, subtract number of dwarves eating the food. ditto clothing/dye.
*autodump excess plants/meat/tallow

thats it for now, mb ill have better ideas later.
