How to set up an arranged marriage?
« on: March 30, 2021, 10:55:22 am »

This question is more specific to DFhack

I've already attempted to use the exploit where you lock your citizens in rooms together to force interactions and while it works it's not really efficient enough for what I am wanting to do

So is there a Dfhack command that will cause people to just go get married or even let me direct who?
If so what is the command script?

It can be done. I think there's something called Family Affairs or something like that, but I haven't used it. I use the nuptial encouragement suites, although, I think I've been desperate at some time and have hacked the sexual orientation of someone to get enough pairs to get a sustainable population (since DF doesn't suffer from inbreeding issues resulting from a small population base in the real world).

I found it! Going with what you were saying

hover over and select the citizen in question
go to the dfhack screen and type gui/family-affairs

and it will open a box in the game to arrange the relationships or break them up
