Mass tile editing?
« on: February 14, 2009, 09:22:49 am »

I was wondering if there was a util that could edit all the tiles you currently have selected? I like to make my fortress out of the 'base' rock of a layer and then send off exploratory offshoots to get the other types available in the layer. I can use Dtil's Vein Helper to change all of the veins to the base rock, but then I end up with nothing to dig up later...

Any help with this would be great :)

Many thanks in advance

By "selected" do you mean designated for digging or what?

Anyway, this is the closest thing to what I think you're describing: http://dwarf.lendemaindeveille.com/index.php/User:Exponent/For_Each_Tile

No problem, good luck with that module.  It's amazingly powerful but kind of intimidating.

Yeah, it looks it...
Now I just need to work out how to make it change the rock type...
