40.24 force dig?
« on: August 15, 2015, 01:49:24 am »

What is the solution to force dig warm/wet stone without the designation stopping in the current version?

The data/init/announcements.txt File.

Find the lines that say DIG_CANCEL_WARM and DIG_CANCEL_DAMP, and remove the ":P" from each. The came will no longer pause when digging is canceled due to damp/warm stone.

Bonus Tip: Find the BIRTH_CITIZEN line and remove ":R", to prevent it from re-centering when it announces a birth.

Is this biome reanimating? I really don't want to know what happens when "absurd numbers of megabeasts" is combined with "reanimating biomes".

I know about this already. My question is how to stop the actual cancellation so I don't have to designate one tile at a time when I know the digging is safe.

You can also reveal (DfHack) the upper Layer

Does that stop Dwarves from canceling mining when they hit damp stone?

Yeah, the undesignation AFAIK happens on reveal-by-digging, which won't happen when the tiles are revealed.
