Quick Area Switching
« on: July 11, 2014, 08:35:32 am »

Do you often find yourself having to repeatedly move through many z-levels to your mine or part of your massive fortress?
Need a way to access certain areas quickly without pointless map scrolling?

Look no further!

Simply place 1x1 barrows in key points in your fort.
ie:Main Dining Hall
    Entrance
    Bedrooms
    Bottom of main mine

Then open the burrow menu scroll to the one of your choosing and hit 'z' to centre on it. :D

Also use the H key for the hotkeys menu.

In case you didn't know.

What would it be like to live in a world that was copy/pasted? Would we even notice? If not, how many times have we switched celestial harddrives or whatever?
