I've just started playing DF again after a while away, there used to be a tool within dfhack which allowed you to hide (unreveal) walled off sections within your fort. Does it still exist if so what is it called now? I've tried the one called 'revflood' doesn't seem to do it.

The command is "reveal."

"Unreveal" hides the walls again after using "reveal."

I really need this release. I won't use it, but Meph won't release ☼34.08☼ until he can bundle DFhack in.

If you want the one quietdust pointed to, do this:

My name does not contain a "d", thankyouverymuch.

wait, really?

* Japa checks

my mind is blown. This whole time I had your name wrong.

Doesn't work like that for me, it just reveals the whole map and then unhides everything same as it was. I want to hide additional extra parts, I want sections that I've walled off/parts that I can't path to to remain blacked out.

You can use the revflood tool to do something like that, but constructed walls won't work. You need to use caste obsidian to block areas off. If you don't mind cheating, you can place them with liquids.

Maybe that what I used to do, I'll try that thanks

Edit: Actually tiletypes is more like it, it lets you 'paint' hidden status where ever you like

You guys still take ideas for utilities to add on this thing?
There used to be a tool that told you how many "ticks" you needed for the next strange mood to hit one of your dwarves, or just set it straight to 0 and wait until inspiration struck.

Think that's good enough to hunt down and add?
...after the version update, because I have a feeling I'd get beaten by a mob if I throw a suggestion that delays the release of DFhack for this new and glorious updated DF.

...Aaaand peterix might as well just move on to working on .09 now!

Can probably do that with a one-liner in lua, provided the appropriate variable has been found and exposed.  I don't know if we know where that timer is anymore, though; it might be ui.mood_cooldown, although I certainly don't know that for sure.

Another tool (Runesmith perhaps) had the ability to change a possession into fey, or if you want macabre you could go to fell.  I'd definitely like the posession->fey/secretive tool.

As expected, 34.09 leapfrogs dfhack for 34.08.  I've actually survived pretty well hackless in .08.  The one function I thought I'd be doomed without was autodump, but the mining change to drop a lot less stone meant that it was slightly less important, at least in the early years.  I do seriously miss workflow though, got additcted to that one.  But patience is a virtue, and there's always the option of pulling the source and hacking.

workflow 4 lyfe!

That's because he's been busy with school. I can personally guarantee that updates will be coming soon.

Look at IRC and github network, this guys are not only works hard on it, it looks like they start working less than a couple of hours after release =)
