How would I make a Tigerperson that we got off the elven caravan into a proper citizen? We need her bonedoctoring skills!

From what I read, you'd need to change their race to dwarf.
you can tweak makeown them, but the game still treats them like a pet.
So you can't see them in dwarf therapist and stuff like that.

[WillowLuman]

Well, at the very least I just need this tigerperson to hang out in the dining hall and actually talk to the dwarves (evidenced by raising social skills) for the purposes of the succession game.

I'm now playing Moltenchannels with your script. There are now only 811 units in the list between citizens, pets/livestock, others, and dead/missing.

If I save the game without restoring the dead units, will I still be able to restore them?

Problem I've noticed: Lots of dwarf corpses are showing. These are the un-named beings that siege your fortress when the undead come. Is it possible to get rid of those as well?

It may help if we have a binary patch to fix this problem once and for all. However, at this rate unless we get 189 more named dead or dead dwarves, citizens, traders, or other livestock and pets, we will be OK.

My tests worked with saving, quitting, loading and restoring the list.  As long as a list was successfully created it should work fine.

for the undead.. could try doing something like this:

      if flags1.dead and unit.race ~= dwarf_race then
         local remove = false
         if flags2.slaughter then
            remove = true
         elseif unit.enemy.undead then
            remove = true
         elseif not unit.name.has_name then
            remove = true
         ...

if flags1.dead then

remove = true

remove = true
elseif unit.civ_id ~= dwarf_civ and not (flags1.merchant or flags1.diplomat) then
remove = true
end
if remove then
count = count + 1
file:write(units[i].id, NEWLINE)
units:erase(i)
end
end

... unfortunately that code didn't fix them. The missing organs disappeared again.. are there any scripts out there that actually work on restoring organs?

I tried to merge the various heal scripts floating around and tested it by trying to resurrect units in one of my test worlds.  I found that setting the body_part_status wouldn't stick unless I also reset the body.components.body_layer_*** values that Urist posted about.  However, setting those with a for ipairs/pairs loop wouldn't stick either but would stick with for idx=0,length,1 do unit.body.components.body_layer_***[idx] = 0.  Getting the body_layer_*** vectors to stick, the body_part_status would then stick (with either type of loop).  Resurrecting a unit is not completely tested but appears to work at the moment.

EDIT: please be sure to make a backup before testing (especially when testing the resurrection part)

Okay, well so far so good. Not a lot of time to test right now, but after work I'll run it for a bit and see if it sticks.
I ran the squad around a little and he didn't break right away. I never noticed how long it took to reset before.

Just to report back, this seems to have done the trick. Spine is replaced, and after extensive play, and many dead goblins it hasn't reappeared.

Thanks! Is there a way to stop dwarf corpses from the undead legions being placed in tombs?

How do you create binary patches? I've seen these have been used to fix the hospital overstocking. Is it possible to use binary patches to fix dwarves not getting married if the difference in age is more than 10 years, or the immigration slowing down after enough units arrive or walk into cage traps?

EDIT: THANK THE LORD! The dead units list is no longer dominated by previously undead dwarf corpses and arms. Now we can have 361 more dead citizens and pets, and live pets and merchants and citizens before stuff goes wrong. We can also get the carnage list on demand.

[scamtank]

How do you create binary patches? I've seen these have been used to fix the hospital overstocking.

You just use a hex editor and adjust certain values according to the instructions that Quietust or some other codelord posted somewhere like the bug tracker. I personally use the Notepad++ plugin.

[Mr S]

That's not so much a binpatch as using a hex editor to get your hands dirty yourself.  Both do the same thing in the end, but a pre-packaged binpatch keeps you from fat fingering your own edits.

CREATING said binpatch is another question.  There are a couple of ways to make one, and I suppose depends on what method of applying the patch will be used.  As always, be careful of error checking, garbage collection and edge cases whenever possible.

[WillowLuman]

Is it possible to
A) change the flags of an off-site unit, if their ID is known

and

B) kill them, making the game think they were killed by someone in particular

[sonerohi]

So, I am back with more questions. To save myself a little time and frustration, I made a text document called dfhack.init in my main dwarf fortress folder. The text for it is the following

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

binpatch enable fix-armory enable binpatch apply armorstand-capacity binpatch apply deconstruct-heapfall binpatch apply deconstruct-teleport binpatch apply hospital-overstocking binpatch apply weaponrack-unassign tweak enable tweak stable-cursor enable tweak patrol-duty enable tweak stable-temp enable tweak fix-dimensions enable tweak fast-trade enable tweak military-stable-assign enable
tweak military-color-assigned enable
tweak military-training enable fix/cloth-stockpile enable growthbug enable

It applies the armory fix on start up, but nothing else. I'm guessing I did not do it right, but I'll be honest about not understanding what is wrong. If someone could show me an example that would fix the binpatches, and one for the tweaks then I can apply the changes across the rest. Also, not sure if I did growthbug right. It is called growthbug.lua in my scripts folder, and is just a text document containing Putnams code. And when I say text documents, by the way, I mean they open with notepad and have the .txt ending.

[Putnam]

Put them all on different lines

[sonerohi]

Seriously that is all? Daaaaaang. Thank you very much for the help and for your code.

[Putnam]

The growthbug should be in init.lua in the raw folder, btw; better would be to use Kurik Amudnil's ruby code and have it in your dfhack.init

[Kurik Amudnil]

Is it possible to
A) change the flags of an off-site unit, if their ID is known

and

B) kill them, making the game think they were killed by someone in particular

possibly, but its complicated.  The unit would have to be found in units.all.  change their unit.flags1.dead to true, choose a cause of death, create a death_info, giving the unit the death_info.id.  If unit is a historical figure then the historical figure would need to be updated with time of death, and create a histrory_event_hist_figure_diedst.  The history event could probably be ignored but then engravers wouldn't be able to make artwork related to the event.  There might also be other considerations too (weapon used?) but that is a rough outline.

EDIT:  if the unit doesn't exist in units.all then they can only die by way of historical figure and history event.  If not a historical figure, then no way to kill them. However, the slayer may have someplace to record the deed.
