haha yeah i guess i did!

I'm specifically trying to find out what each wound object is named. So which pointer points to the object that represents say a nose cut that's infected.

[lethosor]

They don't really have names like that. Here's the XML definition for unit_wound. I'd guess "parts" has some stuff that's useful for you.

I'm looking to cure only infection from my adventurer. I tried forking full-heal, but alas I can't seem to figure it out. I can get a list of wounds in unit.body.wounds, but they just look like memory addresses.

Use the 'gui/gm-editor' command. It's the most convenient way to visualise structures and allows for manual editing.

A script like this is probably what you're after:

Code: (adv-cure-infection.lua) [Select]

local unit = df.nemesis_record.find(df.global.ui_advmode.player_id).unit
unit.body.infection_level = 0
for _,wound in ipairs(unit.body.wounds) do
  wound.flags.infection = false
end

Hi!

I've got a question regarding "eventful.lua" in DF-Hack. I'd like to track some information about dwarfs over multiple years. I've written a small LUA script to export data in a kind of XML style. Now I'm looking for way get this LUA script being triggered automatically and thought there could be an event (like at the 1st of each month).

But what I found so far is:

Code: [Select]

eventType=invertTable{
    [0]="TICK",
    "JOB_INITIATED",
    "JOB_COMPLETED",
    "UNIT_DEATH",
    "ITEM_CREATED",
    "BUILDING",
    "CONSTRUCTION",
    "SYNDROME",
    "INVASION",
    "INVENTORY_CHANGE",
    "REPORT",
    "UNIT_ATTACK",
    "UNLOAD",
    "INTERACTION",
    "EVENT_MAX"
}
Looks like an event being triggered at the beginning of each month is not available. There is an event called "TICK". I was thinking about using this event, but it looks "dangerous" and I found no other script using it so far. As I'm no LUA expert, I'm also unsure how to setup an event handler for this case.

The "TICK" seems to correspond to 0. When looking at the C++ source of the event plugin I saw this:

Code: [Select]

static const handler_t eventHandlers[] = {
 NULL,
 ev_mng_jobInitiated,
 ev_mng_jobCompleted,
 ev_mng_unitDeath,
 ev_mng_itemCreate,
 ev_mng_building,
 ev_mng_construction,
 ev_mng_syndrome,
 ev_mng_invasion,
 ev_mng_inventory,
 ev_mng_report,
 ev_mng_unitAttack,
 ev_mng_unload,
 ev_mng_interaction,
};
So eventHandlers[0] == NULL.

My assumption so far: the TICK event is not implemented. Is my assumption correct or did I miss something?

If it should work, can anybody give me an example, how it could be used?

[lethosor]

There's already a "repeat" script that can run other scripts periodically, if that's what you want. If it doesn't work for you, it uses a separate timeout API that's probably easier to use than eventful for your purposes.

[Alatun]

Ok, thx. I will take a look if that could suit my need.

[Rose]

Will a plugin built for an R2 DFhack work with an R1 dfhack of the same DF version, or vice versa?

[lethosor]

Nope, it'll fail the DFHack version check in both cases.

[Alatun]

Just discovered that LUA's

io.stdout:write(...) gets written to stdout.log. To get something printed in the dfhack console window, you must use "print".

When using loops to generate output print is a problem, because each call appends a newline automatically. Is there another way to write something to the df console using the io.stream ... api?

I know, I can concatenate strings, but this is ugly.

You're looking for "dfhack.print", with "dfhack.println" adding a newline (which you didn't want).

Thank you.

Updated scripts/pref-adjust.lua on the weekend, submitted the pull request.  Working great for me, the previous version was crashing 0.44.12 (along with prefchange. I PM'd Max) due to not handling the new music/dance/poetry entries.

In case anyone was curious, it's much better now and fixed. 

As always, there's more options to add, but I figured fixing the crash bug was important.

I'd like to know if my Qt experiment works on macOS (I am worried by this). But, since I cannot use macOS myself, I need help from a macOS user who knows how to compile DFHack plugins.

Download and compile the plugin from here. You will need to install Qt (homebrew can help with that) and pass its installation directory to cmake with -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH (-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt for homebrew installation).

Try enabling the plugin ("enable qapplication"), then try commands like "qt-info" or "qt-log". Please tell me if windows appear and if DF survives it. Also check the content of "qt_log.txt" in DF directory (or the content of the log window if it works).

Hi, I am still looking for a macOS user who can help me.

I saw the command in another thread but haven't been able to find it again yet...  Does anyone remember how to tell what types of animals exist on a particular embark?  It's likely in 1 of the 100+ pages here I am still digging through. 

[lethosor]

What do you mean by "exist"? Are you looking for the animals on the map, or animals that could appear on the map? Regular creatures or vermin? Is this before or after embarking?
