Wait, teleport.lua? That ought to be working. What exactly is wrong?

[Max™]

Hmmm, it was broken last time I tried it, brb. Uh, apparently it's been a while since I tried it last because I don't even have it in my dfhack 40.24r2 install. Missed it when scrolling back up to the help text, replaced it with a fresh one from your page anyways and it spit out this:

Code: [Select]

[DFHack]# teleport showpos
./hack/lua/dfhack.lua:436: /home/thefunk/.df24/hack/scripts/teleport.lua:15: syntax error near '=='
stack traceback:
        [C]: in function 'error'
        ./hack/lua/dfhack.lua:436: in function <./hack/lua/dfhack.lua:418>
        (...tail calls...)

[fricy]

@expwnent/lethosor: considering the tons of new code in dfhack/develop is there any timeline for 40.24-r3?

[Descan]

I didn't know gm-editor... was a thing. Or that it could move dwarfs.

[Max™]

It can also wreck your shit, but yeah, it exposes pretty much everything you can play with, it just has no safety uh... anything, one of the dialogues mentions that you are very liable to screw stuff up badly if you aren't careful and know what you're doing.

If all you're after is moving a dorf then at the top should be a pos entry after using it with them selected, I always have to check and make sure which way the values move stuff, I wanna say x-minus is west, x-plus is east, y-minus is north, y-plus is south, z-minus is down, z-plus is up.

If you really aren't sure what to put there, find something at the right position and grab the pos for it with gm-editor then just use that for your dorf, assuming putnam doesn't pop up with a fixed teleport.lua beforehand.

Does anyone have experience with adding wounds to units with DFHack? Every time I try to add a wound using gm-editor or just the command line it reverts back after a few ticks.

It might just heal... Wounds are complicated to say the least.

Let's see... I had a script that adds a wound... A heart ripping out script. here

The wound just removes the heart and adds a HUGE amount of bleed per tick (without the bleeding ripping out a heart does nothing... dwarves can be heartless strangely). So more complicated stuff like damaging tissues and breaking bones or even figureing out how much bleeding to add for heart removal (also it would be fun to add a hole through to the heart ) is left as an exercise to the reader

putnam doesn't pop up with a fixed teleport.lua beforehand.

what's broken

[Descan]

Better yet, tell us how to use it properly.

[Putnam]

teleport -unit (unit id) -x x -y y -z z Will teleport the unit to the coordinates specified.

teleport -showunitid will show the unit ID.

teleport -showpos will show the current position.

Omitting the unit ID will teleport the selected unit and omitting the position values will teleport the specified unit to the cursor.

[Descan]

And how do you find a unit id? Or how do you teleport the cursor unit to a specific position?

[Putnam]

That was a misclick post, edited with rest of info.

[Max™]

It spit this and variations of this for me when I tried it out earlier, hence why I posted the error message

Code: [Select]

[DFHack]# teleport showpos
./hack/lua/dfhack.lua:436: /home/thefunk/.df24/hack/scripts/teleport.lua:15: syntax error near '=='
stack traceback:
        [C]: in function 'error'
        ./hack/lua/dfhack.lua:436: in function <./hack/lua/dfhack.lua:418>
        (...tail calls...)
Now, I do see that I am missing the - before showpos, but even just trying to do teleport ls or teleport man or whatnot gives the errors so I figure it is probably deeper than a missing hyphen in the command but I haven't played with it too extensively since I just tend to use gm-editor if I need to move something immediately or to an odd place.

[Putnam]

Thank you! I needed an actual error to know what to fix.

...There is no == in all of that file. That's odd. I can't find what that error is.

Also, you really shouldn't teleport using gm-editor. It causes unit occupancy units. See teleport to see how to properly do it.

[Descan]

Did you check out dfhack.lua lines 418-436? It looks like the actual error is occurring there, not necessarily in teleport.lua. I think.
