I'm having a little trouble with the townportal and the dwarfs I summon from it. I requested a marksdwarf and got him, but was unable to assign him to a military squad or as a noble. Am I missing a step?
I remember reading somewhere that they need to become a historical figure before they can become soldiers. A masterwork craft should work. Killing something might work as well.
Thats correct. There is no way around it, I should probably make a notice of that in the manual though. Its a very weird quirk of them... all other methods of getting new civ-members has the same problem btw. Maybe I should restrict the townportal to peasants only.
Raultor: I changed it from sprites to changelings... it worked with sprites, I did that often enough.... but I havent tested with changelings yet, maybe there is one tag missing. I'll test.
In the Biologist's Study:
is it possible to research multiple times the same thing? Like double damage.
Does it stack?
Should the research option be disabled after researching it?
I cant disable something, but the things dont stack. so do each one only once. ^^ I think I wrote somewhere that its best to take notes, otherwise you forget. ^^
I've asked over in the dfHack thread and been ignored for over a week so I'm asking here; does anyone know of a way with the burrow command to add or remove tiles from a burrow based on how good or evil the tile is other than manually?
I dont think so. Its definitly impossible atm, and I dont know if such a script could be written. probably yes, but I wouldnt know how.
