Hey, I've been playing DF for a while now and theres still a few things I haven't figured out. One is, how do I move items inside my fortress? I've stockpiles for everything but after killing a goblin ambush my dwarves seem to ignore the items they've dropped, and they drop pretty good things too. I get the feeling a Rhesus will come along and take them soon, if anyone could help me out with it then that would be great.

Also another thing, three of my marksmen have been wounded and are lying on the floor, I presume they're dying. How do I go about healing them?


Thanks.

• => [F] => have other dead items not be forbidden

Or just manually reclaim all of the items.


Dwarven healthcare is very hit or miss. Make sure there is an empty bed, and eventually another dwarf will come by and rescue the wounded dwarf.

It's showing the mode as f:claim though my dwarves are just running past them D:

That means they ARE forbidden.  "f: claim" means you need to press 'f' to claim them.

If you need to reclaim a bunch of things, the easiest way is d -> B (I think) which lets you spread a Reclaim Designation over a large area.

oh thanks they should hopefully pick up the badass weapons now. All my people are using crossbows and its getting a bit tedious.

It's better to melt down the goblin armor and weapons and have your metalworkers make weapons themselves.
