Doesn't the find site menu let you distinguish between shallow metal and shallow metals, and idem for deep?

So I choose sites with, at most, 2 metals.
Is that some dfhack feature or how do you find out that?

It does but I read it as "My embark screen shows me a list of metal veins that are under my selected embark area".

This is pretty easy to work around if you use a memory editor.

Just search for the hex value of one of your wealth numbers on the z-screen.  The trick is that when you convert the number from decimal to hex, you have to reverse the hex values (if your total wealth is, for example, 46404437 then you would search for '5513C402').  Match each of the nearby sets of 4 hex values to your numbers on the z-screen.  Your imported wealth should be the last one that is non-zero.  Skip one set of 4 hex values and enter 'FFFF0100' for the next set.

That will give you 131071 exported wealth, which is enough for all of the features.  I have tested on two forts that went 8 and 10 years respectively without humans or a baron and after performing the above, both received humans and a barony on the following year.

I have not confirmed yet whether the offerings stay 0 as well, limiting the monarch.

This worked well for me in my 0.42.04 fort, even though I can be a little dumb when it comes to hex editing. Has anyone checked this bug on the new version yet? I haven't had the time.

I ment only embarking on "shallow metal/deep metal" embarks. Otherwise, you'd have to use DFHack's "prospect all" command from the embark screen to ascertain if "deep metals" is 2 or 4. I just look for sites that never have the plural since I don't like waiting for utilities to update.

It's supposed to be fixed now. I had edited the Raw files to remove export wealth requirements, but that didn't let me become mountainhome.

You can also mod the entity raws so that there's no exported wealth requirement for human caravans/nobility. Worked for me. My liaison let me pick my baron and I get human caravans on the regular.

They said the walls were impregnable. You didn't have to prove me wrong by giving birth on them.

Yes, that's how I first got my Baron in another Fort exhibiting this. But, for some reason, it didn't get me the humans... Maybe I just screwed up in the raws for it. I also had no visitors at all to my library or inn until my exported wealth was nonzero.

Looking forward to 42.06, now.

So I'm also having this issue, and I'm pretty sure that along with the previously listed problems this is also the reason why my fort has yet to get a strange mood.

Indeed, I do this.

That's probably a separate issue, since exported wealth isn't used to determine that... Also, all three (3) of my forts that have now had this issue saw no problems with moods.

If you have time, could you tell what program you use and how to do this?
I've searched for my created wealth in artmoney, i found the address, but i have no clue where to look for the exported wealth


edit-
After re-reading the things you wrote, i actually understood it and made it work. My reading skills have improved.

So after strenuous searching failed to find a hex editor for linux that can edit memory, I concluded that something about the linux architecture makes this impossible (I'd be happy to be proved wrong!).

However, it turns out to be trivial to write a dfhack script to fix the problem; the variable in need of reassignment is df.global.ui.tasks.wealth.exported.
