sleeping
« on: August 23, 2006, 01:13:00 am »

if this is already a bloat or a requirement then i apologize for not reading the list thoroughly enough

i'm not too sure about how it should be implimented, but i'm thinking it would be cool to have a way to control sleep for the dwarves.  all too often, dwarves fall asleep at the most inopportune moments (when there is lots of construction going on, invasions, mass-sleeping resulting in no one getting the harvest).  maybe there can be a way to control dwarf sleeping habits.  it would be useful for military and logistical purposes- dwarves can take natural shifts.  when you hit "k" you can zoom in on a dwarf and figure out how tired he or she is.  there could be a descriptive or numerical system that can display tiredness.  there could be another window where you can tell a dwarf to sleep immediately or to pull an all-nighter.  i think that the results could be very interesting and useful.

ps.  sorry this was put in the wrong forum

yes, and too many all nighters = the sheriff killing again, if you get my drift.
