Regarding Ghosts.

Setting the unit flags for dead and killed removes them from view, and after a period of time, they disappear entirely from the active units list.

What I'd like to know... what is causing this "cleanup" after time has passed, and is it possible to trigger this immediately after flagging them as dead and killed?

uhh you could also revive ghosts to become normal citizens by flipping off their ghostly flag(and healing all their wounds).

Is there a command to run a dfusion script directly without the gui?

Imagine a custom workshop triggering a 1x1 rectangle for the "river source" for a tick or two then deleting it.  Have it be required to be built over a hole in the floor...

I think I may have the process for dwarven sewage... especially if that spot of water "muddies" the floor beneath it...

I fatfingered some command. Now I have an item placement tool in the build menu.

How can I make this magic happen again?
How can I make it stop? It's messing with my Quickfort templates.

no need to even make a river source. Just make a single chunk of water over the hole.

The real task will be making dwarves use those custom workshops and under what circumstances. What's the input material? Can it be 'nothing'? Maybe some sort of toilet paper (either regular cloth or a custom product crafted at another workshop)? And another problem is that workshops are tied to labors, isn't it?

I am both amused and horrified at what DFhack is being used to simulate here.

Though the question is, how would one go about making sure every dwarf performs the task at least once per period of time?

You have this. As it says on screen, press "p" to enable/disable.

Thank you.

I could have sworn I looked at other build items and didn't see anything. So much of my playing is just muscle memory.

So maybe the chunk of water produced also creates a "happy thought" ie: "Urist McRelieved has enjoyed a good bowel movement".  The labor could be tied to "eat/drink/sleep" labours, where that labour is immediately generated by the completion of eating, drinking or sleeping.  Come to think of it, it might just work like a "fill pond" designation, just without a bucket.

Since fortress mode exists within a level of abstraction, which dwarf completes the labour shouldn't really be a factor - just that for N number of dwarves, N number of "natural dwarven excretions" are created per season.

Just saying, my day gets much better after I've used the jakes - I certainly get a happy thought from it.  Why keep dwarves from similar joys?

No new thought types, just new thoughts.

Urist McRelieved has admired a masterful toilet stall....

[Rose]

Urist Mc Relieved has admired a fine waterfall lately.

Going by that logic people should build those toilets above their dining hall so that everybody gets happy thoughts from the mist they create.

Exactly.
