How to turn off DFHack's lock of alchemy?
« on: December 12, 2016, 05:08:24 pm »
Hi, guys!

I had create a little simple mod  two years ago than dropped DF for long time. Little description of mod here
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Now I ported it in DF 0.43.05 and started new game but I had faced problem - DFHack lock the ability to assign alchemist labor. It is bad because it is used in dwarven reactions in alchemist lab and elven reactions in enchanter's pentagram.

How can I change settings of DFHack to make this profession unlocked?

Well, with dfhack you use any of the various methods to select a unit and do unit[k].status.labors.ALCHEMIST==true to set it directly.

Yes, it may work. However, I want to use standart ingame method of labors assign but DFHack prevent it. In the game without hack all works perfectly.

I believe that there are setting to change this behaviour of DFHack but can't find it.

I assume you mean you can't set the labor in manipulator (u-l)? In this case simply allow the labor in the entity.

You're not true dwarven royalty unless you own the complete 'Signature Collection' baby-bone bedroom set from NOKEAS

That would work as well, didn't even think about that.

Yes, allowing labor for entity works well. Many thanks!

The tool here is "tweak block-labors". You can disable it with "tweak block-labors disable".

But yes, the proper way to do this in a mod is to enable the labor in the entity raws (otherwise enabling the labor won't do anything elsewhere, or at least it's limited).

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

In the vanilla it works a little. If you disable whole group of labors (for example, all engineering), this labors will not be accessible.

Thanks for explanation.
