maybe you have to invoke "ruby" first, then the commands associated with it? Or did you try that?

how do you "invoke" it? The readme doesn't really say anything except that the plugin is required.

[Eric Blank]

Well, the only thing on the entirety of the DF forums is this thread and another mod that mentions "ruby" and then "plugin" sometime later. That is probably the shortest list of search results you could ever hope to get.


Anyway, I clearly have no idea what I'm talking about anyway. I was thinking it may be like liquids, where you ahve to type "liquids," then press enter before you can start using the commands that depend on the liquids plugin.

I'm talking about these functions.

growcrops

Instantly grow seeds inside farming plots.

With no argument, this command list the various seed types currently in use in your farming plots. With a seed type, the script will grow 100 of these seeds, ready to be harvested. You can change the number with a 2nd argument.

For exemple, to grow 40 plump helmet spawn:

growcrops plump 40

This is a ruby script and needs the ruby plugin.
removebadthoughts

This script remove negative thoughts from your dwarves. Very useful against tantrum spirals.

With a selected unit in 'v' mode, will clear this unit's mind, otherwise clear all your fort's units minds.

Individual dwarf happiness may not increase right after this command is run, but in the short term your dwarves will get much more joyful. The thoughts are set to be very old, and the game will remove them soon when you unpause.

With the optional -v parameter, the script will dump the negative thoughts it removed.

This is a ruby script and needs the ruby plugin.

If you want the ruby plugin, you'll need to download the sources and compile DFHack yourself - the next release will probably include it.

Hello,

first many thx to Peterix for his awesome work.
One question, the old DFHack was a version with so many of separated commandline utilities now there is one console with all the commands available. But I used a GUI programm to start those small programms and now this is not working.
Is there a way to call all the new commands from a GUI process and may be hiding the console window?

Best regards

You can call any of the DFHack commands from outside DF using the "dfhack-run" script. For instance, to run "reveal", you would open up a console, change to the DF directory, and run "dfhack-run reveal".

Hopefully you can retrofit your GUI program to use this method.

[Mr S]

Well, this seems as likely a thread as any to ask.  I see that some of the modders on here use Interactive Disassembler (IDA) for patching bugs.  I looked at IDA's official page but I think I pooped a little when I saw the price tag of $550.

I'm guessing few of the people using disassemblers are using a full price version, so what are you using?  LIDA?  Something else?  Got some links?

[Rose]

Quietust uses an older version of Ida. I don't know what anybody else uses.

Code: [Select]

print(df.global.world.raws.syndromes.all[50 or whatever].syn_affected_class[0].value)
Figured it out by doing

Code: [Select]

printall(df.global.world.raws.syndromes.all[50 or whatever].syn_affected_class[0])

I saw this and the sun shone through the leaves...

Then I wrote this script:

Code: [Select]

function showhidden()

for fnUnitCount,fnUnit in ipairs(df.global.world.units.all) do
    if (fnUnit.race ~= df.global.ui.race_id) then
if fnUnit.flags1.dead ==false then
if fnUnit.flags1.hidden_in_ambush then
print(fnUnit.flags1.hidden_in_ambush,fnUnit.race,fnUnit.pos.x,fnUnit.pos.y,fnUnit.pos.z,df.global.world.raws.creatures.all[fnUnit.race].creature_id, dfhack.TranslateName(dfhack.units.getVisibleName(fnUnit)))
end
end
end
end
print(df.global.world.raws.syndromes.all[2].syn_affected_class[0].value)
print("--")
printall(df.global.world.raws.syndromes.all[2].syn_affected_class)
print("--")
printall(df.global.world.raws.syndromes.all[2].syn_affected_class[0])
print("--")
printall(df.global.world.raws.syndromes.all[2])
print("--")
printall(df.global.world.raws.creatures.all[641])
print(df.global.world.raws.creatures.all[641].name[0])
print("--------------------")
print("-- dfhack")
printall(dfhack)
print("--------------------")
print("-- dfhack.gui")
printall(dfhack.gui)
print("--------------------")
print("-- dfhack.units")
printall(dfhack.units)
print("--------------------")
print("-- dfhack.event")
printall(dfhack.event)
print("--------------------")
print("-- dfhack.job")
printall(dfhack.job)
print("--------------------")
print("-- df.global")
printall(df.global)
print("--------------------")
print("-- df.global.ui")
printall(df.global.ui)
print("--------------------")
print("-- df.global.world")
printall(df.global.world)
end

It was recommended to me that I put my script request here.

I'd like to be able to disable and reenable [can_speak] tag of a creature in adventure mode. The goal here is to butcher your sentient enemies (say, elves) after killing them to make armor out of them. The [intelligence] tag might work too? I don't know much about memory editing, but apparently my obsession can only be solved by a lua script, removing the tag before butchering, and then putting it back, (I think it would be can_speak or intelligence), to continue playing the game.

I would very much appreciate if anyone has the spare time the help me out. If not, any scripting resources that would help me accomplish this would be very helpful. Thanks to anyone willing to help make adventure mode just a little more dwarfy! Elf leather quivers for everyone!

I thought this was handled through a race's ethics.

[Iysif]

Unfortunately not for adventure mode. The actual eating and crafting is ethics I believe, but you have to be starving to butcher sentients or you get the message "You are not hungry enough for that."

Hello,

thx Danaris for the fast answer, it works like a charm.
But here is the next question, is there a way to hide the DFHack console window (which is automatically opened with DF)?

Best regards

Minimize it?

[Altaree]

I am trying to check the status of some eggs. 
When I try this:

Code: [Select]

printall(item.unk_cc)I get

Code: [Select]

--------------------unk_cc
anon_1                   = -1
anon_2                   = -1
anon_3                   = -1
anon_4                   = -1
anon_5                   = -1
anon_6                   = -1
anon_7                   = 0
Across many eggs only anon_7 changes from 0 to -1.

Does anyone know what these values mean? In the dfusion package I found this code but don't know what to do with it :

Code: [Select]

function items.eggs()
myoff=offsets.getEx("Items") -- first find out where "item vector" is
vector=engine.peek(myoff,ptr_vector) --  get list of items
for i=0,vector:size()-1 do --look at each item
rti=engine.peek(vector:getval(i),ptr_item.RTI)
if ptr_item.getname(nil,rti)=="item_eggst" then
egg=engine.peek(vector:getval(i),ptr_subitems["item_eggst"])
egg.isfertile=1
egg.hatchtime=0xffffff
--egg.race=123 -- change race for fun times
engine.poke(vector:getval(i),ptr_subitems["item_eggst"],egg)
end
end
end
I have a feeling this part is REALLY outdated.
