New version : http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=57003.0

looks awesome!
quite an extensive tool, from the looks? so how about a quickie intro/explanation on whats it all about, here in the first post?
info is kinda scarce there on the wiki

First of all, for now it's just a python prototype, and will require the installation of several software packages to properly run.

It is basically a tool that will allow you to easily watch the data structures that have been reversed, and edit some. In game terms, it will let you list creatures, spot hurt/moody/unhappy dwarves, and view/edit creatures internals.

Some features are cheats, such as mood requirements lister, magical "heal" and "hurt" buttons, mood type selection, coordinates edition (teleporter). Most importantly, it will let you play with the internals, creating interesting effects, such as Corbine's crazy dogs or  butcherable lazy dwarves!

Would very much appreciate this being completed.

Very interested.

When this is more finished, I am definitely using this to perfect my temple to armok!

[Luckymoose]

Sounds awesome. Can't wait for it to be standalone. Don't feel like installing the stuff needed.

[sphr]

LOL, if this had come up sooner, I wouldn't have to dig through all the memory hacking thing to do what it did (quickly lists out wounded/unhappy dwarves)!  Definitely looking forward to this, but hope for either a standalone version or something based off python 2.5 (installing 2.4 when 2.5 is already installed is just too messy).

Any plans on map-related modules? e.g.
-one button designate cut tree after recording the regions.
-additional "bookmarks", jump to creature (esp dead creatures, which cannot be done in game)
-add foreman.exe-like macro job management by profession?

I could go on and on... lol... maybe we should post util feature ideas in the modding subforum and see which ones are feasible and which ones are most desired.

Excellent work and thanks for all the contribution to memory hacking stuff too!

My personal dream feature: alert me when my hunters run out of bolts so I can draft them to reset their job state and get them to pick up a fresh batch of ammo. It's such a hassle to have to constantly watch hunters just so they don't do something dumb like put their head inside a cougar's mouth. Or even a way to look at the items in a dwarf's inventory would be lovely. I may have to peek at the Python code to see what I can figure out...

[bartavelle]

What would be totally cool is that people with feature requests just put them in the discussion page of the wiki. I will answer them, as soon as holidays are over  and i can check their "feasibility". Thanks for the feedback!

This works in adventure mode too, by the way. I made myself into a demon and flew into a pond. I tried the "pain" thing but that crashed DF.

It tends to do that.  Future warning to everyone: DF DOES NOT LIKE DWARF COMPANION.  SAVE OFTEN!

And with that out of the way, I've noticed you removed the old tags from the crazy  flags and such bart.

[bartavelle]

Yes, next time it will be fixed :/

[bartavelle]

I added several features, most importantly:
* Skill edition : you can now change skill type/level, but NOT add new skills
* Body part name is displayed on the damage details
* Right click popup on the unit list with : heal/hurt/tame

The most important underlying feature is the removal of the pydbg dependency (and tentative linux support for wine players). As it might now work with python 2.4 and 2.5 i'm reluctant to package it with all the pygtk, as it would work for 2.5 OR 2.4, but not both.

Should I package it for python 2.5 or just let beta testers install the 3 required packages (as it's not that big/invasive)?

[bartavelle]

Oh, and it's possible to display stuff like that :

Release it with the 3 packages, then package it up and release that.

What's next, adjuststart's features or something? I dunno what else there is to do, honestly, except naming all the tags. Oh, and keeping this up to date with new DF versions.

Now, to go turn all my dwarves into slugmen!
