fixed problem causing attacks to occur through multiple z levels

Well, now my way to rush down stairs at random won't work any more.  I hope.  I'll have to make a test fort to determine.

As a note, if that is the bug I think it is, you could change z-levels by charging at things.  I think, to some extent, the problem evaporated when manual aiming was implemented, but now I want to test to find out.

To the fortress!

# fixed problems with glass material properties

Holy crap! Could it be that random glass material properties are no more!?! Consistent glass traps here I come!

[Quatch]

I also thought the moody dwarves vs magma buildings was a 'feature', the bug being it happening without access to magma. They are moody.

cleaned up some wood/metal etc. issues in stockpile settings

The metals category no longer includes every type of stone and wood in the game?  Nice.

I'm pretty sure there is. When you highlight a dwarf in that menu it tells you what squad he's in.

I can't even begin to describe how foolish I feel at this point.

Don't feel too bad, I had never noticed that either. And I thought I had a pretty good handle on the military screen!

I'd still feel bad, but for ui.

Dwarves assigned to military/guards should disappear from "recruit pool" list to unclutter it. Mot of the time, you do not want to reassign dwarves between squads but rather assign fresh recruits to new squad/fill holes in older squads.

I actually shuffle my squads quite a lot, especially if I have weapon-specific squads, but then want to make a combined-arms squad to deal with general threats.  Or if I have my fortress guard armed with wooden swords for day-to-day work (so they don't slaughter the guys they beat) but then want them moved to a real squad with real swords for when actual slaughter is appropriate.

It might be more clear if dwarves already assigned to a squad are listed in a different colour. Maybe someone should suggest that.

Maybe... someone that thought of it?

Also, they could be shuffled to the bottom of the list.  Perhaps even an option to show them in order, hide them or put them at the bottom of the list.

Nope. You could manually aim at demons in Hell. (Which I will miss immensely).

Like the Nobles, which are listed in order of qualification of the position?

Listing warriors in order of XP points in specific weaponskill>>general combat skills.

I rather like that recruits are listed in order of appearance though.
Makes it easier to find favored skilled soldiers and especially handy in finding those immigrant recruits.

Agreed, although that may be an artifact of the unfamiliar names.

There's no reason not to have a (c)ull existing squad members or (s)ort differently option.

Colors may be the quick and dirty, pre-UI arc, answer.
