Blocks shouldn't add too much drag on the FPS, as far as I know. The main items that hit your FPS are clothing, because they calculate wear every tick.

Will offsite raids respect were-status? I've put my two wereape dwarves into a squad and they've returned with spoils three times. They are unarmed and with no weapons.. Just luck?

How can I check the age of my caged Minotaur?

Assuming I have LazyNewPack with DFHack enabled, how long do clothes last before entering the first stage of "xWearx"?

here are two ways

1. check the legends. just look up the name of the minotaur and it should give a birth date

2. build a statue, there is an option to look at specific events the minotaur were in. this should give you a very rough estimate of how old it is

if the minotaur doesn't have a name then you can't check it

Oh. That's a pity.. I was actually wanting to check this Great Horned Owl Man's age, but went with Minotaur for simplicity as I have one as well (& was curious). Thanks

Edit: In addition to my previous question (quoted below), how can I make necromancer's raise the dead in my fortress to train on? I have them behind a fortificaiton, but they don't raise anything I put near them (hair, bones, skeletons, etc.)

Hrm, should we actually make a new thread for the new version? I think probably, but I don't wanna be the one to move away from a long-running beloved thread XD

So thus my question (in 44.04): I currently have a work order set up (well, multiples of them) to make new clothes of various types whenever I'm under a certain number of them, and when I have enough of the specific type of thread to leave me with a few in case of moods/restocking the hospital.

One question that I *think* I know the answer to: does it count clothes currently claimed/being worn by dwarfs toward this number? I'm thinking no, but I wanted to double-check to make sure.

My main question though: is there some way to add a condition to the order to make more clothes if there are fewer than a certain number of "pristine" (for lack of a better term) clothes available? I mean, if I have all xpig tail cloakx or Xllama wool trousersX or whatever, I'd like it to make more fresh clothes, but I don't think there's any way to designate that. (It doesn't help that I think of that as the clothing "condition," and that kind of gets tangled in my mind with the work order "conditions.")

If worst comes to worst I can wait for the next caravan and unload all my worn-down clothes onto it, and keep doing that each time a caravan comes (that doesn't get canceled cause oh hey siege), but that is not something that I look forward to.

Ok so I sent away two wereape dwarves on missions to keep them from infecting my fortress. While they were away, I added a third to the squad, and he wandered offsite as well. Now they've not come back after two seasons.

Have I borked the mission by adding recruits to the mission while it was underway, or have they all died and if so, when should I expect a report?

[gordy]

Ok I upgraded to the latest version and managed to call back my two squads (one travelling and one not). I'm glad to have all my military returned!

But my wereape squad is still travelling after three seasons. I can't disband or call them back. Will I ever get notifications? Could I somehow track them down in adventure mode?

Is there any way to configure stockpiles to accept only empty bags?  I set up a stockpile to accept only bags and only those made of cloth, yarn or leather.  The stockpile ended up filled with bags of seeds, even though seeds are disabled on the stockpile.

In dfhack console with unit selected

Code: [Select]

gui/unit-info-viewer
alternatively, if you need to go deeper

Code: [Select]

gui/gm-editor

The problem is that the seeds travel to empty bags, regardless of where those are. The solution is to create a seed stockpile somewhere and after a bag receives seeds, it will be taken from your bag stockpile and brought to the seed stockpile. Once a seed stockpile has a bag for each seed type, it should be where the seeds are sent to and seeds will stop clogging up your empty bag stockpile.

Last time I checked, plaster powders don't have an associated stockpile, so those will always end up in Empty Bag stockpiles.

Related question: I know there are macros for loading and saving stockpile settings in dfhack. Is there a download of those saved stockpiles anywhere? Preferably ones that sort by industry?

It should be the same way as always. Once you set up the room, press "h" to designate a Meeting Hall (it switches <N> to <Y> ).

Interesting, but that definitely makes sense.  Thanks, I'll give that a shot.
