I think it does!

Here too! Thanks a lot!

How can we add additional items to this? was just trying it out on my current fort and wanted to see if my military actually had backpacks and waterskins as it's a nightmare to check each one.

How can we add additional items to this? was just trying it out on my current fort and wanted to see if my military actually had backpacks and waterskins as it's a nightmare to check each one.

You have to edit the dfjobs.xml file.

I'm working on a little tutorial and I'm trying to automatically generate the list of the built-in jobs.

For now I can give you these:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

<dfjob name="Make leather waterskin" type="122" materialType="leather" category="Leatherworks">
<item type="flask" material="all" /> <!-- material could be also creature -->
</dfjob>
<dfjob name="Make leather backpack" type="133" materialType="leather" category="Leatherworks">
<item type="backpack" material="all" /> <!-- material could be also creature -->
</dfjob>



Let me know if they work.

The dfjob types are taken from the df-structures of df-hack:

Cheerrs, and I had to remove the comment line <!-- for it to work btw. And i think the way the game reports backpack/waterskin usage(ie it doesn't ;p ) means this won't work as expected, except to have a certain total number of items in the whole fort. If only the stocks screen actually had a different colour or some way to indicate what was "in use" it'd be so much easier.

And just to note there was no readme.txt in the archives you posted?

I must stop to post when I am already sleeping...

I forgot to close the comment lines on the jobs I posted  (now I have edited my previous post) and to include the readme.txt in the last archive.

Here is the readme.txt (it is not updated yet):

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Regarding dfjobs.xml

It is pretty self explanatory. The name and category of a job doesn't do anything but change how it is displayed in the interface. If you're dealing with a custom reaction, you just use the name that is in the raws and that is all you have to do. Otherwise the type is a table of hard/coded values.

Some jobs require a material, you can specify wood, bone, other, on inorganic. If you specify other or inorganic you also need to specify which other or inorganic material. Other is a hard coded list.

INORGANIC
AMBER
CORAL
GLASS_GREEN
GLASS_CLEAR
GLASS_CRYSTAL
WATER
COAL
POTASH
ASH
PEARLASH
LYE
MUD
VOMIT
SALT
FILTH_B
FILTH_Y
UNKNOWN_SUBSTANCE
GRIME

Inorganic materials are also specified by their raw names, you can see a list of them by using test.exe's dump materials function. (<- this doesn't work with 0.34.x)

Stack is used for items that produce more than one item, such as arrows where each job makes 25 arrows.

Once you specify a job, you need to specify which items are produced when the job is done. You can specify 1 or more things here. If you're curious how Foreman views items, you can use the dump items feature of test.exe to see for sure (<- this doesn't work with 0.34.x). Furthermore, they are additional categories. Material of all matches all materials, other matches all "other" materials, etc for organic, inorganic, and creature. Creature means it is made from a creature and is useful for bones and such.

Items with subtypes are instruments, toys, weapons, armor, shoes, shields, helms, gloves, ammo, pants, siege ammo, traps, and food.

Finally, there is a source tag. Functionally it doesn't do anything yet, but will in the future and is a good idea to use.

The whole point of dwarf foreman is to give you the possibility to set how many available items you want to have at any given time, so dwarf foreman displays only available items (not owned or tasked or dumped).
If you think it coud be useful I can add in the next version a total number of items and the subtotals (owned, available, other)

[Intrinsic]

That's my point, DF doesn't report that for BPs, it just shows a number, whether they are in use or not it doesn't show for whatever reason so foreman shows there as being xx free when in fact they are all used up.

Sorry, I misunderstood your previous post.

I think that the problem is that the backpacks are equipped but not owned.
Nope, I tested it and the equipped backpacks didn't show themselves in dwarf foreman.
Can you please upload a save so I can check why the backpacks count didn't work for you?

Forget that, I found the bug. I will fix this in the next version.

[Shishimaru]

New version uploaded: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=6462

Version 0.7.7

• fixed some errors in the offsets
• added the item_category attribute to the dfjob tag (needed for the "EncrustWith" jobs)
• added some new jobs
• now you can specify a multilevel category for the jobs (see the jeweler jobs for an example of how this works)
• fixed the item count for equipped items

Cool beans! i will check this out later after the footy...or maybe tomorrow.

Seems to pickup backpacks spare as i'd expect it atm, although i have 4 in my sp but it says 5, but that other 1 could be anywhere with the new hauling system mixing things up.
Bins seem to miss calc though? in stocks screen: 1147 bins, in foreman: 18 current, 244 source?

And DF has a nasty habbit of crashing on save and load when foreman is running sometimes, i'm guessing a "tick" can hit at the wrong time and boom it crashes.

Dwarf foreman counts only empty bins.

Yes, this was a problem in the original version too. From the original author:

You must load this program after you load your world and close it before you save.

Anyway I'll see if I can find a way to check the status of Dwarf Fortress and pause dwarf foreman during save/load

Hey, I've just picked this up and have been mucking around in an attempt to automate my farming industries. Can anyone tell me why:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

    <dfjob name="make plant thread" category="Farmers Workshop" type="111">   
       <item type="thread" material="GRASS_TAIL_PIG" />
   <source type="plant" material="GRASS_TAIL_PIG" />
    </dfjob>

Isn't sending any jobs to the workshop? Foreman is recognizing it's a job and knows it has to use pig tails but isn't sending any orders.

edit: After sending some manual process orders and stocking up some thread it's also recognising how much thread is there, so it knows what it has to use and what needs to be made, but the order isn't going through.

edit2: Working now! Just had to change material="all" in item type. So if you want that to automate pig tail processing just copy

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

<dfjob name="make plant thread" category="Farmers Workshop" type="111">   
       <item type="thread" material="all" />
   <source type="plant" material="GRASS_TAIL_PIG" />
    </dfjob>

into dfjobs!

I am now a video game developer. Go me.

edit3: Whaddaya know, processing quarry bush leaves also works!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

<dfjob name="process quarry bushes to bag" category="Farmers Workshop" type="112" stack="5">   
       <item type="leaves" material="all" />
   <source type="plant" material="BUSH_QUARRY" />
    </dfjob>

I'm going to stop editing this post now, it's getting silly. Is it at all useful me posting these when they work or is this stuff all handled?

[Shishimaru]

Is it at all useful me posting these when they work or is this stuff all handled?

It's very useful. I will add these jobs to the dfjobs.xml in the next release. Thank you.

Just one small correction, in the pig tail processing job use material="organic" instead of material="all". If you use "all" as material dwarf foreman will count the animal based thread, too.

EDIT: another correction: the quarry bush processing needs also bags, so we can use the sourceand tag to specify this:

Code: [Select]

<dfjob name="process quarry bushes to bag" category="Farmers Workshop" type="112" stack="5">   
<item type="leaves" material="all" />

<source type="plant" material="BUSH_QUARRY" />
</sourceand>
<sourceand>
<source type="bag" material="all" />
</sourceand>
</dfjob>

Ah ace, thanks. As you can tell I'm pretty much just mashing buttons till something works! I'll post any more I add.

Hello again! The entry for soapmaking wasn't working so I played around with it a bit. This:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

<dfjob name="make soap from tallow " category="Soap maker" reaction="MAKE_SOAP_FROM_TALLOW">
        <item type="bar" material="creature" />
   <sourceand>
      <source type="glob" material="creature" />
   </sourceand>
   <sourceand>
      <source type="liquid_misc" material="LYE" />
   </sourceand>

Seems to be working fine now.
