I had the need to keep a fort alive for a very long time recently, and only had a few dwarves to work with, and some were getting pretty old.

So, I rejuvenated them!

Spoiler: rejuvenate.lua (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

--rejuvenate.lua
--This script will make any dwarf ~20 years old
--by vjek, version 1, 20120617
--usage is:  target a unit in DF, and execute this script in dfhack
--via ' lua /path/to/script '
--the target birthyear will be changed to the current year minus 20
--praise Armok!

function rejuvenate()
local current_year,newbirthyear
unit=dfhack.gui.getSelectedUnit()

if unit==nil then
print ("No unit under cursor!  Aborting with extreme prejudice.")
return
end

current_year=df.global.cur_year
newbirthyear=current_year - 20
unit.relations.birth_year=newbirthyear
print (unit.name.first_name.." is now ~20 years old")
end

rejuvenate()



This script can be called by targeting a dwarf in DF and simply: rejuvenate , if the script is placed into \hack\scripts\
or if you choose, with ' lua \path\to\rejuvenate.lua '

Tested in 34.10, does not appear to cause any problems with my adult dwarves, after a year of in-game time has passed, and through several saves/loads.

WARNING:  This script has NOT been tested on dwarven children.

Well, let's remedy that shall we?

Considering how this is said to work. I would assume it adultifies the children. Their birth year would be set to current year minus 20, making them 20 years old.

Or maybe it just crashes the game.

Why not add tag NO_AGING and  be done with it? Thoug this thing might really help with that damned children:)

Is there a reference that lists the dfusion lua functions, and explains what they each do?  I've only been able to find out about functions from other people posting their scripts.  Where do they find out about them?

For example, someone recently posted a script where one can set the mood type for dwarves, using df.mood.  Where did this person find out that df.mood was a thing and how to use it?  Searching the forums and the files in my dfhack directory turns up nothing.

Where did this person find out that df.mood was a thing and how to use it?

Try here:
https://github.com/peterix/df-structures

the df.***.xml files define all data structures and variables that you can use with DFHack.

For example df.mood_type structure can be found in df.units.xml file.

Tasty stuff there.  Thanks!  Looks like the On Break flag can be accessed there, will finally be able to kick the dwarves out of break when there's time-sensitive things going on.

Also, looks like it might be possible to induce syndromes.  It'll take me several hours to write a symptom list suitable for nobles though...

Good to see that people are writing scripts for DFhack. :9

We need a separate board thread list for DFhack scripts.

Can a script run through all items marked as dumped, and remove/leave the dump mark for certain types of items? That would make disarming prisoners a bit easier. I'd like to only strip their pointy objects and leave their armor on.

I think you can do this from the stocks screen without much trouble.

So it looks like stack sizes are accessible here...

Is it possible to go through all the items under the cursor, find stackable items of the same type, make one stack with the quantity matching the total, and delete the originals?

I figured that with all the people wishing for a way to combine stacks, somebody's probably already tried it.

There's already a development plugin (stripcaged) that disarms prisoners.  I just added a "keeparmor" option that causes it not to remove armor and clothing.  I should clean it up and move it into the main tree, but even so it'll be up to peterix to include it in the official release.  If it doesn't make it into 34.11r1 I can at least put the Windows plugin .dll up on github.

Restacking is fairly hard; for example, two items are not stack-equivalent if they're masterworks created by different craftsdwarfs.  Implementing isRestackableWith is fairly tedious, and as of yet nobody has bothered to do it.

[Makbeth]

But it would work for items that were originally one stack, right?  I'm thinking mostly of consolidating recovered bolts and arrows in adventure mode.

Nice! While you are at it, maybe also an option for leaving their shields on, for experiments?

Well, I did it a few times, found it to be too much of a trouble and then came here to ask for a script to do it automatically.
