wow, thanks.
Edit: now dfhack pauses for a second, and then when I look in dwarf fortress there is nothing new.

I just fixed it, you can try again with this newer version.

I know that was the plan until I found out about the spawn-unit script, do we have any idea when it will be fixed?

Warmist is supposed to be working on it I think.

There's this, or you could just edit d_init.txt. (If you mean changing it in-game, that should be possible with the former, although I'm not sure if I've implemented it yet.)
Edit: Should be implemented now.

Oh my god where has this been and why did I not even consider that you could do this?

I assume the way twbt switches the display method means it couldn't be hotswapped, but could it be toggled to enable/disable on reboot through the manager?

To answer my question, yes you can add {'TWBT', 'TWBT'}, to the print_mode list and it will activate/deactivate it as expected on restarting df which is incredibly handy since it is still a bit buggy in adventure mode.

Thank you so much boltgun, would it be possible for me to package this script with my mod?

[Boltgun]

Sure, but I warn you that after saving and reloading spawned units will be attacked by your dwarves.

[Urist McCoder]

Hum, I did not think to test it in dwarf mode let me see one thing.

Edit. I had no problem with saving and reloading.

I am having trouble with modtools/reaction-trigger I put this into onLoad.INIT

Code: [Select]

modtools/reaction-trigger -reactionName CREATE_AUTOMATON -command [ spawn-unit -race AUTOMANTON ]but it asks me to point my pointy thing somewhere, how do I make it spawn the creature at the workshop where the reaction happened?

You need to supply the position. I cannot test it right now but something like this may work.

Code: [Select]

modtools/reaction-trigger -reactionName CREATE_AUTOMATON -command [ spawn-unit -race AUTOMANTON -position \LOCATION]

[Urist McCoder]

It does not work

[Dirst]

Try

Code: [Select]

modtools/reaction-trigger -reactionName CREATE_AUTOMATON -command [ spawn-unit -race AUTOMATON -position [ \\LOCATION ] ]
Note the spacing and the double backslashes.

Edit: Fixed spelling of automaton.

[Urist McCoder]

is this right

Code: [Select]

modtools/reaction-trigger -reactionName CREATE_AUTOMATON -command [ spawn-unit -race AUTOMATON -position [ \\LOCATION ] ] because it still says to point my pointy thing somewhere.

The new script is checking location differently than the old script I had duct-taped together, so I'm not sure exactly what's going on.  The \\LOCATION is actually a list of three numbers, thus the square brackets around it, and that doesn't seem to be getting slotted into spawn-unit's arguments properly.  With a "blank" position, it is defaulting to the cursor location.  If that gives an X-coordinate of -3000, it means the "pointy thing" isn't displayed currently.

[Urist McCoder]

could I call the location of the workshop and then input that some how?

[expwnent]

Code: [Select]

modtools/reaction-trigger -reactionName CREATE_AUTOMATON -command [ devel/print-args -race AUTOMATON -position [ \\LOCATION ] ]

Try this.
