Announcement pauses?
« on: October 04, 2010, 07:09:21 pm »

How do I add a custom announcement pause to make he game pause when a dwarf dies?

Or an animal gives birth?

See [DF folder]\data\init\announcements.txt. which has instructions at the top of the file.

For example, find [CITIZEN_DEATH:D_D:UCR_A], and change it to [CITIZEN_DEATH:D_D:UCR_A:P:R], which will pause and center.
There are more lines for citizen and animal births in there too.
