That's right

A bit taller version:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I wasn't sure what size would be best since the "X" made me think crates, but they'd have to be small enough for one dwarf to carry and they don't block movement.  I thought a stockpile all full of big boxes but with dwarves walking through them might look odd.

Very nice little tool.  Though, one request:  Don't use keys on the numpad.  I suspect that the refresh rate of Stonesense is inversely proportional to the framerate drop of DF when using it (I don't have the time to read through all the 100+ pages to make sure), so I'd love to drop the refresh rate of Stonesense.  However, I play DF on my laptop that has no numpad, so I can't alter the refresh rate using + and - on the numpad.  If the standard + and - were used, or if I could change hotkeys, that would be wonderful.

Isn't the numpad doubled up on your laptop with the normal keys?  Eg. press FN+ something else to send the 'numpad +' command?

Suggestion for StoneSense:

Replay of movies

so we can watch epic fortress stories or tutorial tips in beautiful enviroment

not possible.

movies only store the characters that are displayed. stonesense needs more information than that.

you can always change the refresh rate in the init.

It was on my old laptop, but not on this one.  Dell's not the brightest when it comes to laptop keyboard design, as the default state is I had to use FN to get to my function keys.  So, until I found the BIOS setting to flip that, I was turning off my wireless card every time I hit F2 to move my camera to the living quarters.

[Khalan]

That's a shame.  You can change the refresh rate in the init as Japa said, or if you want to be able to adjust it on the fly you could try a free program like KeyTweak:

I've used it before, it works great.  Just assign whichever keys you like to the numpad + and - functions.

I have Dell laptop (Latitude XT table) and numeric /*-+ is for me Fn with 0p;/
but I must press Fn with F4 first, to turn on numlock

hope it helps

Thanks, changed the refresh to about 1/s, it's a bit slow but I got about a 20% FPS boost from it.

FN+F4 merely dims my screen and FN+0p;/ does nothing for me.  The Inspiron models seems to simply lack numpads.

I wonder what inspired that idea...

[Retro]

Will Stonesense ever be able to show mining designations? Preferably in their to-be-dug state, being able to differentiate between regular dig-designations and up/down-stair designations, for example. I feel like this might be a 'no,' but never hurts to ask.

ed- Actually, if this by chance does happen to be possible, would it be possible to have a toggle key that views said designations as they would be dug? It would be an immensely helpful tool if so.

It actually is possible and was possible from the start. Also, in the more recent versions of dfhack, you can make just about any kind of designation (unless it requires creating new objects that is).

what model is it?

[Petr Ga]

Japa:

have you a plan to merge stonesense with dfhack 0.2.0? it supports multiple clients properly now, so i hope it helps with simultaneous runs, which are now somewhat laggy

Japa: since there is new version of dfhack, could you please add that to project and make 40d19.2 release again?

what's fixed: it should be possible to run stonesense and other therapist-dfhack simultaneous. it hangs/crashes now, sadly
