new version is up on dffd.

Patch Notes

• adjusted preferences to even out roles with many preferences vs those with very few
• conflicting traits and beliefs are now shown in the dwarf detail pane (highlighted in red) along with their full descriptions of the conflict
• fixed active squads not showing up
• removed the background colors and used them for the text color in the dwarf details pane (rust, moodable skill, beliefs, goals) to prevent a rainbow atrocity
• trait cells are now highlighted with a dynamic opacity border (darker means more conflicts) if they conflict with a cultural belief
• changing the group by now resets the sorting to the group's aggregate values, rather than keeping the previous sort method
• added a new thought, and support for unknown thoughts

I've been putting out torrents for DF Starter Pack - is it worthwhile for DT too? I don't mind seeding if it's worth the time to create the torrent.

DT crashing save:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bgvelq88rptxrjz/region1.zip

you found a new (un)happiness thought, congratulations! one of your dwarves had 'suffered through his spouse's miscarriage recently'. this is fixed in the new version.

Was using Therapist and having a good time. When i got to around 60 dwarves Therapist just suddently stopped working. I've tried closing and rebooting but nothing works. Also tried to retire fortress then unretire it. (It still works when i start a new game)

see if it's still crashing on the last (23.2) version.

Thanks man it actually works. I dont know if its because of the new version or if its retiring my fort made my king dissapear for some reason. Keep up the good work!

I have a "bug"?

when i use "tweak makeown" on an elf, he will be listed as an pet in DT.

ok, elves should be fine with that, but is there a way to change this?

(masterwork with 0.6.12/22.0)

excellent. it's possible he had an unknown thought and due to some shoddy coding it was causing a crash.

totally up to you, i don't mind at all if you want to post it here or reddit or whatever.

Hey Splinterz,

I downloaded a clean version of the Dwarf Fortress starter pack and I'm seeing custom hexes defined under "Grid Colors" and "Nobles" in the Options menu. I assume these are new defaults? If so they should be treated as such in the settings.

DT_Guide has now been posted to a GitHub repo, here: https://github.com/ResidentMario/DT_Guide/.

I'm not a computer science major, just a hobbyist, though, so my ability to handle Git and GitHub is quite limited.

I've been pretty useless finding offsets (Quietust is so much smarter than me...), but I've made progress on the custom-group stuff.

I can create custom groups, assign dwarves to one or more, delete groups, sort/group by custom group in the display, and save/restore group names between sessions.

My plan is that group names are global (like custom professions), but that dwarf-to-group assignments are stored per-fortress, keyed off the name of the fortress and maybe some other unique thing I can extract easily. (I don't want to dork around with finding the save dir yet, but that's probably where I should end up.)

I'll put up a pull request for review when I get the last bit wrapped up, but I had one question for now: to get the fortress name I need to wait until DFInstance is populated, which is after settings are normally read. One option is to load them all from the settings file and then use whichever ones when we connect. The other, which I prefer and which will fit better with the save-dir future, is to add a hook that gets called after connecting to DF, which will pull the right group info out of the settings file (I'd ignore it on the initial load). Splinterz, does that sound OK to you?

(Also, clang pointed out two warnings that look legit -- the code happens to work, but what's expressed is almost certainly not what's meant. I'll post a separate PR for those.)

This all sounds very exciting.  Any way this can be tied in with dwarf's and burrow assignments?  What if a dwarf is part of two burrows?

Another idea I threw Splinterz was looking at room ownership items.

I don't know how DF would handle dwarves being part of two burrows. If it can handle that, then sure. (We'd need to do the dfhack/offset work to twiddle the burrow stuff, of course.)

Burrow management from DT would be a very good feature!
Also: on osx custom nicknames/profession names do not work, can you look into it?

hrmm that's strange, they should all be that golden color and say 'Default'. i haven't change those colors.

that all sounds reasonable.

Any chance of a Linux-native version?
