Just something I noticed when having problems erecting a building. Teleporting a creature via it's details page doesn't always reset the occupancy of the tile it was teleported from.

However this can be solved by using the tile designator. The third value was 8 while it believed that a creature was in the tile without one actually being there, setting this to 0 cleared the tile.

Hmm, could this program be used in Adv. Mode in order to locate an elusive quest target?

[bartavelle]

Now this is weird penguin! And I already used it in adv mode to locate a hiding minotaur.

Can this utility be used by players running DF in linux+wine?

penguin, did you remember to install the new version over the old one?

Wait what? Install the new one over the old one? I'm not sure what you mean by that.

I don't know in which version it got introduced, but the Zoom tool is really cool! Finally we can find where a dwarf or creature died (to quickly forbid all its items, for instance). It would be nice if it worked when you are in 'k' (look) mode, so that it'd position the cursor right over the creature in question.

The nextmood value in the status bar is kind of spoily though, I'd appreciate if it was disabled by default.

Is it normal I can't resize/move the different columns? The alert column is currently huge, and prevent me from seeing the skill column.

penguinofhonor: as the error messages says, you seem to lack "creatureedit.glade". I can't see how this could happen, perhaps the access rights on that file are too restrictive? You sure have the weird errors  

The reinstall over previous version should not be necessary, but as more and more people do this to have it working, i guess i failed in packaging the tool ...

Finally there are several UI problems that i find hard to correct and will probably be corrected in the "standalone" version.

I'm also getting some kind of error.  But it seems to be related to Dwarf fortress' completed mood bug.

The companion works fine 90% of the time, however when theres a resident with an artifact I get this error.

code:

KeyError: 212
C:\Games\Freeware\Dwarf Fortress\companion>pause
Press any key to continue . . .  

I was hoping to remove the artifact flag from the creator to see if that would remove the lag, but the companion no longer starts.  It works on all other occasions (including this fort before the artifact) but not with the artifact present.

Probably not much you can do about it though.

EDIT: Those last two lines have nothing to do with the error, I just use a batch file with the pause command to get a readable screen instead of the usual way.

It looks like there are new events that i did not include! I'll try to fix this today.

[CautionToTheWind]

Can this utility be used by players running DF in linux+wine?

[bartavelle]

I wrote a tentative linux version in the early versions, but this is likely not gonna work now!
