I meant to comment on this before, but is there a reason you chose the falling/minecart projectile mechanics over the shooting mechanics? I currently split my projectile scripts allowing you to chose which one you want, but if falling/minecart is always better then I might just remove the choice to simplify the script.

Soft landings I think are the main reason. Not having thrown items destroyed automatically.

just realized now you can sink a sword into a person 7 times, and have it visually look like the person got stab by 7 swords at the same time from 7 different directions.

you wouldn't happen to have a screencap? it's been a while since we've had a fanart-inducing headscratcher to inflict on the internet

anyone else having difficulty with AutoChop in 42.x? I'm getting a weird thing where the woodcutter seems to get stuck repeatedly trying to chop down a tree that they already chopped down a while ago.  This is in alpha1 on Windows, haven't tried alpha2 yet.  I'll load that up and run some more tests, see if I can reproduce it in a different fort.

I'm getting the same issue Nomad here is, but I'm using the new release, anyone else seeing the same thing?

Oh yeah, I laughed just by reading!

Anyhow to stay on topic of DFhack(ing): I still need a full-heal command that doesn't get rid of my necromancy. Pretty please?

It doesn't come back the tick after? That's what it does to vampirism, at least.

[lethosor]

Huh, sounds like it's clearing curses. I could add a -keep-curses option or something, probably.

here's a gif of a spider corpse exploding into 7 clones

I also just dump this gif on tumblr and more folks are amazed with spider web dropping than dfhacking a corpse into 7 projectiles

From what I remember about a week or more ago when I tested it I intentionally jumped from a tree and broke a few things as a necromancer, I then of course went to 'z' screen/character stat screen to where I initiated the ritual of 'full-heal', alright good, damages healed/removed but minus being a necromancer. I then investigated a bit by walking around with my character a bit to see for real and make sure that my character wasn't a necromancer anymore and nope, she wasn't.

That was then, now I just booted up the game again to check even though my character currently has no injuries and yup, removes necromancy... but after 30-60 ticks in I'm back to being a necromancer so that's a big-arse relief for me.

Still though, wish there was a version of the script that didn't instantly cure necromancy/vampirism/weresomething.

so here's the script I use for healing wounds on my adventurer.
 

Spoiler:  for draggarth (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

function healSelf(unit)
if unit==nil then
unit=df.global.world.units.active[0]
end
if unit==nil then
error("Failed to Heal unit. Unit not selected/valid")
end
    for i=#unit.body.wounds-1,0,-1 do
    unit.body.wounds[i]:delete()
    end
    unit.body.wounds:resize(0)
unit.body.blood_count=unit.body.blood_max
--set flags for standing and grasping...
unit.status2.limbs_stand_max=4
unit.status2.limbs_stand_count=4
unit.status2.limbs_grasp_max=4
unit.status2.limbs_grasp_count=4
--should also set temperatures, and flags for breath etc...
unit.flags1.dead=false
unit.flags2.calculated_bodyparts=false
unit.flags2.calculated_nerves=false
unit.flags2.circulatory_spray=false
unit.flags2.vision_good=true
unit.flags2.vision_damaged=false
unit.flags2.vision_missing=false
unit.counters.winded=0
unit.counters.unconscious=0
for k,v in pairs(unit.body.components) do
for kk,vv in pairs(v) do
if k == 'body_part_status' or k=='layer_status' then v[kk].whole = 0  else v[kk] = 0 end
end
end
end


this script doesn't poke into syndromes and remove them.

So, how many minutes was DFHack stable before a new major DF version was released?

Just over two weeks, not a bad result at all!

Thanks! And derp, it looks like a slightly altered 'healunit' script which I was somehow completely unaware of until now as I named your script/code to 'heal-self.lua' and put it there in the scripts folder and had a facepalm moment. Makes me wonder what else have I been missing. *slaps self* Will test it later when I get back to DF, still.. thanks!

EDIT: Now I just need to know how safe it is to use DFhack as it currently is in DF version 0.43.01.

0.43.01 came out yesterday. DFHack typically lags about a month behind. In all likelihood, DFHack is going to skip 0.43.01 and go to whatever stable 0.43.0x version fixes a bunch of the new bugs.

Heh, that's me that can't think straight anymore. Arghhh.. I give up with this waiting for something thing, I'm done. Too many times done that and too many times negative outcome. Here's me going.. whatever.

[Dirst]

Are there any anticipated design changes with DFHack this time around?  Or will 0.42 code simply run on 0.43 once all of the non-trivial memory mapping work is done?

While that work proceeds, is there anything that folks would like to see added to my simple accessibility tools for possible inclusion in the base distribution?
