Just wondering how you can display the kills of a creature or weapon. I've seen a few screenshots that divide all the kills made by a creature into notable/other kills. Is this a mod or is there an option somewhere I'm not noticing?

I have empty barrels and plump helmets but when I try to brew it says "Needs empty barrels"
wat?

[Lord Shonus]

1: Are you certain the barrels are empty?
2: Are the barrels tasked for something?
3: Are the barrels accessible?

Just tried the new version of DF but I't seems that the numbers of parameters to search for when searching the world for a place to live in. For example why cant I search for magma pipes?

[Lord Shonus]

Magma is now on every map if you dig deep enough.

Ahh thank you

1: Are you certain the barrels are empty?
Yeah, <ashen barrel> then I pressed enter to see content, nothing

2: Are the barrels tasked for something?
I did used it once, to make booze and then stockpile all the drinks in a room. Also I have single cells stockpiles for drinks, but they got empty and the dwarfs don't take it to the still.

3: Are the barrels accessible?
yeah.

[Lord Shonus]

Try making a garbage dump next to your still, disabling all your other dumps, then dumping the empty barrels. Once they've been hauled to the dump, reclaim them and try brewing again. If nothing else, that will help narrow down the possibilities.

I have a question.
Sometimes, my military guys get "was upset about being relieved from duty" bad thought, which results in unhappy state. As i understand, this thought is triggered only when i expell him from squad, isn't it? Or everytime i cancel some order, the military dwarf (dedicated warrior lol) may get this?
Cause last time when he got it (my maceman) he was stationing with squad to search some hobo parties. Then i canceled station and he gets this thought. Can't understand it   

Erhm answer plz? Anybody? )

Thanks for the keybind advice, is the ctrl key used for anything? I'll change the exit button that that instead, my only qualm with having it as escape is the escape key is right next to the annoying "open the CPU devouring gimmick application that came with the keyboard" button and I often hit that by accident since it's closer to where the escape key is on most normal keyboards.

Why wont my dwarves spar? I have them in a barracks that is set to train, and the squad is set to the active/training alert, but all they're doing is the individual combat drill. Is it a bug or am I being stupid?

I'm having a hard time understanding the diagram. The dark green square of the pump is the part that needs power. You can connect it directly to a power source, or use gears and axles.

Question:

Is there a simple way to find Prepared Food Barrels in my trade menu or do I have to pick them out individually from the 'Barrels' heading?
