Look at it this way. A circle, by definition, is the collection of points which all have equal distance to a single point, called center.

And in DF, diagonal movement costs as much as straight movement. This means that what we uneducated humans call a square is actually a perfectly round and pretty dwarven circle!

... Well, I want something that looks like a circle to me, the omniscient controller of them dwarves.

Anyway, I like the MS paint idea. Thanks!

Here's an ahk-script by Rysith from this thread http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=30589.0

Code: [Select]

;One full circle
#c::
circleQuarter("{NumPadDown}","{NumPadUp}","{NumPadRight}","{NumPadLeft}",0,4)
circleQuarter("{NumPadRight}","{NumPadLeft}","{NumPadUp}","{NumPadDown}",0,4)
circleQuarter("{NumPadUp}","{NumPadDown}","{NumPadLeft}","{NumPadRight}",0,4)
circleQuarter("{NumPadLeft}","{NumPadRight}","{NumPadDown}","{NumPadUp}",0,4)
exit

;Quarter-circle
circleQuarter(up,down,left,right,inner,outer)
{
x := 0
y := 0
innerBound := % inner*inner
outerBound := % outer*outer
loop,%outer%
{
loop,%outer% ; For a square that is as large as the outer radius
{
if((x*x)+(y*y) <= outerBound && (x*x)+(y*y) >= innerBound)
{
dig(right,0)
}

move(right,1)
x++
}
move(up,1)
move(left,outer)
y++
x := 0
}
move(down,outer)
}

;Utility functions
dig(dir,number)
{

send {Enter}
move(dir, number)

}

move(dir,number)
{

{
break
}
send %dir%

}
