Is the plan to just finish the chief physician thing so that healthcare (one of the biggest changes, in my opinion) can be crossed off the list?  Then continue to obliterate the remaining items in a downwards direction?
I think he might skip the sites bit for now, finish entity and squads, come back to sites before going on to final and unfinished buisness.

Uh oh, Toady's sidetracking again.

I think I prefer the colored progress-bar mode of rendering.
Done (was not on list)
  • Burrows
  • Statue/Figurine Art
  • Verbose/more robust raw debug-parsing
  • Arena Testing Mode
  • Placeholder Infection
  • Custom Workshop Support
On the other hand, the only one of these that seems like it's out of place is custom workshops- the rest are either logical extensions of prior features or useful tools for Toady to work with (for fixing raws, for testing new combat/the hydra bug/etc)

Not that I think these are bad things, but a detour is a detour.

But those spur of the moment additions are some of the best...

I agree. Constructing multiple constructions at a time, the addition of forbid/dump/melt/hide to the Designations menu, and the Hide command itself were all spur-of-the-moment additions.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

I am sure Toady does quite a bit of bug hunting himself (mostly prerelease I bet).

Spoiler: this little fella (click to show/hide)
from Hellboy.

I assume it'll be possible to have sand/dust instead of blood? :D

allow artifacts

But...
What happens if you add that tag to, say, a still, or dairy, or soapmakers' shop?
Will it force artifact booze? Huge intricately carved artifact cheese? Fantastic soap studded with spikes of bone? :P

Wow...The possibilities of those custom workshops...endless...! If I had a steady income I'd donate monthly, and as soon as I get one (steady income), I'll make sure to do just that :)

Chief physician, Military commander, squad captains..I really like the new hierarchy system. When you add the improved descriptions, improved wounds & medical care, it'll add much more personality & interactivity to fortresses.

Oh, and I know proper diseases are not going in for this release, but I still can't wait for the player-modded fortress-killer megaplagues (you could do something like that....right? please make something like that possible. it would be fun) :D

Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't losing an eyelid currently just cause a dwarf's eyes to gradually get dirty rather than causing agonising dryness?
