Would there be an issue when moving my savefiles from an unofficial starter pack to the official one? By the way, thanks for your work. I've been using this pack for years.

There shouldn't be. You can move vanilla saves to the LNP as well. This assumes the inofficial packs aren't doing something weird, of course.

I've just downloaded and installed the latest windows version, nothing updates unless I alt tab out and back again

thanks for the help, really appreciate it

What exactly does "nothing updates" mean? The screen doesn't update, or no keyboard input at all is recognized? How often do you have to alt-tab back and forth? Have you had this issue with other versions? Without packs/utilities?

I, for one, didn't respond because from the little information I had, it sounded like something I had literally no idea how to resolve, and pages of "I don't know" responses are generally unhelpful.

My dwarves tend to loose parts of their equipment when coming back from raids/exploarion. Any1 else experiencing the same problem? It's the current version of LNBP I'm using while having that problem.

There's an issue mentioned in the forums of dorfs reverting to civilians when returning from raids, and dropping food (and drink has been mentioned as well) when entering. If you're using uniform only when on duty that should result in them shedding the uniform as well. As far as known, this is a vanilla issue, so neither DFHack nor any other of the components the LNP has collected would be responsible.

What are the "Other automation plugins" in the latest pack exactly?

[lethosor]

They should be defined in a file named something like PyLNP.json or PyLNP.yaml (not sure). If you can upload/paste that file, I can explain what they are.

Really, the exact tools should be named and explained in PyLNP so people can know exactly what they're enabling, but I have yet to find a pack that does that.

It's json in the distributed pack, but I keep the source in yaml here, and the script or plugin names should be in the tooltip.

That does help, thanks. (Some people I've found aren't sure what stuff like "mouse controls" and "enhanced gameplay" means, and I feel like I've seen people claiming to use "bugfixes" recently, which isn't even listed, but for the most part that helps figure out what things are. Of course, it would be better to have the commands themselves visible without having to dig through a config file, so people can find documentation more easily.) Out of curiosity, why is it translated from YAML to JSON?

Anyway, Miles, they're autonestbox (part of the zone plugin) and the burial script (not a plugin).
- autonestbox appears to require you to set up pastures in a specific way, so it might not be doing anything for you unless you've done that.
- burial only does anything at the moment it's run, so the pack schedules it to run weekly using "repeat". It should make coffins a bit easier to use.

I found it easier to write the config by hand using YAML, and the diffs tend to be nicer.  That hasn't been a concern in a while but I haven't had any reason to change it either!

Uh, unless you updated it again after I downloaded it or it got moved I don't see Therapist in Utilities.

Sorry!  I had missed that the memory layouts were moved, so my build script deleted Therapist.  New version has fixed that problem and has bonus graphics upgrade
