Is this a feature now or what?  For some reason my cloth guy always turns any thread I have into cloth automatically, and I distinctly remember needing to manually do that in .18 before the mineral change.  Is this a new feature or is my guy just being really proactive?

PS - If this is a feature, I'd be all about setting stuff to automatically work assuming the fuel and/or supplies are there; this would make farming much less tedious and I wouldn't have to worry about SO many things.

it's a workshop option under o-W. Auto loom thread y/n, collect webs y/n etc.

Auto-looming thread is an option you can turn on or off. It has been in the game for quite a while (it was in .40d). To access it hit 'o'rders then 'w'orkshop orders.

Note that there is currently a bug that makes hospitals not respect limits on thread or cloth stored inside the hospital, and thread and cloth in the hospital isn't used for crafting which can lead to problems.

Hair of butchered animals remains a in the thread state instead of being turned into cloth, but all other threads should work. If you have sheared something, you need to spin it into yarn first, and that does not happen automatically. Maybe that is the problem.

You can also set it to auto-loom dyed thread only. Which is useful.
