Confirmation suggestions
« on: June 06, 2015, 09:56:14 am »

I'm working on a DFHack plugin to implement confirmation dialogs for potentially dangerous actions that DF is lacking. I've currently implemented the following, but I'm looking to implement more before the next DFHack release (these don't have to be specific to fortress mode):
  • Seizing goods from merchants
  • Offering goods to merchants
  • Removing a depot when merchants are present
  • Deleting a hauling route or stop
(These can be enabled and disabled individually.)
Any other suggestions?

There was a typo in the siegers' campfire code. When the fires went out, so did the game.

You mean, a DFHack interface change to the base game, then?

Canceling a trade or performing a trade in the trading screen. (Accidentally "stutter" on the Esc button, and all trades are reset.)

Most one-button deletion that wipes data you need to spend a lot of time restructuring, such as:
  • deleting hauling routes
  • deleting burrows
  • disbanding squads
  • deleting notes
