Is anyone having problems with gaining almost no experience in solo or group drills? I've had my dwarves train for a year as a group, and half a year solo, and NONE have passed 100 exp (according to dwarftherapist) in the skill. They're all listed as dabbling, and they've all been actively training.

Yes, it's slow as hell for me too. Taken 5 years to get to competent swordsdwarf. I assume it's a bug.

Probly just need a bit of balancing. Something like 10 year fully training to get master or better would suit me fine, else I guess it will be back to hunting the wildlife and gladiatoral sports.

Maybe we're supposed to hope for 1 experienced weapondwarf and then let him train the others?

That would make sense if the difference between teacher and student affected training speed. Does it? I'm not sure.

Given the fact that migrants often have military skills, that could be feaseable.

Or you could always embark with one

This.

My default embark profile has one skilled axedwarf and 4 bronze axes (3 for cutting wood.)

Diplomats/Liasons not respawning has been fixed too!! http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=1102

THANKS TOADY AND GO TOADY ONE!

Out of curiousity, what was causing the liasons to not actually respawn, even though they should.

Hehe I am not the only one refreshing Mantis every 5 minutes

By the time we have standing production orders, you could set those to have, let's say, thirty pieces of armor around at all times, then become an armor exporter.

It's still a little extra work, but I'd be fine with that. Makes the fort seem more real, somehow. You?

By the way it would be good idea to have orders like "make X items every Y years/months". That way you could prevent permanent skill loses without additional micromanagement.

Conditional orders are on the suggestion voting page. I believe there's a thread for them.

I'm actually working on a utility to build orders, conditionally. Version 0.1 should be out tonight or tomorrow.

That's a gorgeous list of bug fixes.  Thank you so much, Toady.

While I do appreciate the active training fixes, it seems kinda counterproductive to completely screw over all of the training rates in the process.

There's still no reason (and now, not even an effective way) to train a dwarf by means other than room-full-of-spikes.

Nice bug fixes, haven't got as far as making a military in my new game to try them out yet though. Just at the armor making stage and for some reason high boots don't show up on the managers screen. Anyone else got this problem? Is it a new bug?

Not a bug, some civs can't make or don't know how to make high boots. Check if you can make them through the forge manually or the leatherworks shop.

Its a normal variation between civs thats been around since 40D and before.
