Is it theoretically possible to write a script for DFHack that can change a Dwarf's likes or preferences? You know, to change things like "admires cats for their aloofness" or hatred of snails?

If someone makes a dummy-proof version of this, please let me know.

[expwnent]

Proof of concept: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=112276.0

I forget how I did it. I'll try to look into it later today.

Regarding preferences...

The link to pref_adjust has been in my sig and on the wiki for several months, now.  The older version for many months before that.  But not to be 'that guy'...

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

Code: [Select]

-- place in /hack/scripts/ for ease of use
-- all preferences are cleared, then set

Spoiler: Notes on getting lists of materials, races, item_types (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

[lua]# for i = 0,200 do
   >>> print (dfhack.matinfo.decode(0,i))
   >>> end
--
printall(df.global.world.raws.creatures.all) <- shows all creature_raw value (races).
--
[lua]# for i = 0,200 do
   >>> print(df.item_type[i])
   >>> end
--
To look at a pre-existing preference
[lua]# unit=dfhack.gui.getSelectedUnit()
[lua]# printall(unit.status.current_soul.preferences)
and then (for example)
[lua]# printall(unit.status.current_soul.preferences[12])
type                     = 5
item_type                = 49
creature_id              = 49
color_id                 = 49
shape_id                 = 49
plant_id                 = 49
item_subtype             = -1
mattype                  = -1
matindex                 = -1

My notes on types: (may be 100% wrong)
type 8 likes "gems" ?
type 7 likes of color "the color clear, the color moss green, the color vermilion"
type 6 appears to be the same as type 5?
type 5 are non-creature likes "maples for their autumn coloration"
type 4 is likes items "picks, plants, meat, drinks"
type 3 is a detests
type 2 is a prefers to consume
type 1 are creature likes "ospreys for ther fishing ability"
type 0 appears to be a material like "plump helmet plant, bronze, microcline"



I used the 'rtbl' array to have a sorted list for another script that made them hate all domestic animals (in a range).  As such, it's superfluous and you could reference something like df.global.world.raws.creatures.all.[n].creature_id to do the same thing without that 'rtbl' array.

Oh and... standard disclaimer, the pref_adjust script changes ALL DWARVES IN PLAY.  If you want it to just affect a single dwarf, you'll have to modify it.

[Thundercraft]

Thanks, vjek.

I thought I vaguely recalled this having been done already. But, as I said, I could not find a mention of it in this thread, in DFHack's documents, or even on GitHub. Somehow, it escaped me to look in your awesome scripts.

[MaximumZero]

How in the world are you supposed to get that to work on one dorf?

[Rumrusher]

What if the civ id of 1 matches a human civ you've pissed off though? Or do subterranean animal tribes get the first several civ numbers?

yeah animal tribes get civ numbers as well, though just for the safe side you best either don't piss off to many civs or assign it to your own.

Can someone help explain autoSyndrome to me?

I've been playing around with it, and it appears to be very limited in functionality. When the job complete event is called, the unit reference has already been removed from the job.

The lua eventful interface adds in the unit and building references, in addition to the job itself. I'm not sure why the cpp event isn't implemented in the same way.

Edit: I'm referring to a a built copy of the latest git files at https://github.com/peterix/dfhack

Give the syndrome the "\LOCATION" or "\UNIT_ID" synclass and it should give you more or less what you want.

https://github.com/peterix/dfhack/blob/master/plugins/autoSyndrome.cpp#L357

Follow up:
I modified autoSyndrome to print the current reaction being processed to the dfhack console. I'm not sure why, but the "couldn't find unit -1" message only appears on reaction products without syndromes. So in other words, autoSyndrome works, but puts out unnecessary spam messages to the console.

perhaps a check for syndromes on the reaction products could be done before the worker check?

Is there a way to display a currently selected dwarfs attributes? interested in speed only atm. ty.

Go into the lua interface with "lua", highlight the dwarf you want with k, v, l or what have you, then type this:

dfhack.units.computeMovementSpeed(dfhack.gui.getSelectedUnit())

Lower is better.

Change the last bit to something like:

Code: [Select]

-- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- main script operation starts here
-- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
local args = {...}
if not args[1] then
local unit=dfhack.gui.getSelectedUnit()
if unit then
clear_preferences(unit)
brainwash_unit(unit)
else
print("Select a unit, or use pref_adjust all to brainwash ALL dwarves.")
end
elseif string.upper(args[1])=="ALL" then
clearpref_all_dwarves()
adjust_all_dwarves()
else
print("Unknown argument: "..args[1])
end

Cheers that worked, i just have to remember to use v etc as i accidentally pressed q and then used the command and DF crashed

Coul dfhack supress the games inbuild auto-pause?

Example:
You use mining designations to designate an area to be dug. The game pauses.
You are in the military screen, assigning uniforms. The game pauses.
You are in the manager screen. The game pauses.

Could dfhack force the game to still run while using these menus? I am just asking for a potential hard-mode RTS option.

The menu pause? No, almost certainly not. There is a nopause plugin already included for other stuff, however.

[Meph]

All the "normal" autopause can be disabled in the init.txt and the anouncements.txt. I do indeed mean the menu pause.

[Putnam]

Well, nopause disables pause entirely, even by the player, so it could be useful for a kind of hardcore RTS mode.
