in screwing around in Fort mode news, 34 things happen:
fallen fort broke out into a crusade after I moved in a merfolk group,
The River Refreezes the entrance sometimes locking the new residents out and keeping the old in.
Merfolk group broke out into melancholy from lack of clothes.
move in a Centaur group with out properly adding a miltary for them and now the lone Fisherwoman Fallen is their medic and is now being haunted by her murderous ghost peers.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

oh discovered that the Historical entity position is what ever their Civ ID is minus 800.

For a second I was hoping merfolk citizens meant you'd gotten people to willingly live underwater.

[Just Some Guy]

I have full fledged human citizens due to the friendship plugin, but they can't haul. The game says they're "incapable of carrying."

Can this be fixed?

If this question has been answered before, please give me the link.

[Quietust]

Send a PM to Briess.

Done. Thanks again.

I've created the page myself - you should be able to add whatever you want to it.

As I can't think of a better place to put it atm, I'll go ahead and post it right here. I had a dwarf go berserk on me, as it was quite an important dwarf I kinda wanted it back. So after some searching (couldnt find it on ze google) and asking around I found a fix for it. Just removing the mood berserk doesnt work as they also become an former member and enemy of your current civ. So running this how to remove berserk code in dfhack:

Code: [Select]

[dfhack]# lua
[lua]# dfhack.gui.getSelectedUnit().mood = df.mood_type.None
[lua]# quit
[dfhack]# fix/loyaltycascade

I ran a similar fort based on that idea but found out sooner that yeah I need to figure out how to open up pathing so that a unit could walk through water that more than 2 z levels high.

Code: [Select]

function playallcivs()
for y,x in pairs(df.global.world.entities.all) do
  require("utils").insert_sorted(dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen().available_civs,x,"id")
endhere's a simple script that pulls all the civs from your worldgen into your embark select. the only good reason I see doing this is if you want to pick a random or specific Civ then run my military script to gain basic access to military controls.
said script is right here

Code: [Select]

function addmilitary()
  local D=dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen().parent.civ_idx

local grabbag=dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen().available_civs[D]
  --require("utils").insert_sorted(grabbag.positions.site,grabbag.positions.own,"id")
  grabbag.positions.site:insert("#",{new=true,entity_position})
  --grabbag.positions.own:insert("#",{new=true,entity_position})
  --local OBag= grabbag.positions.own
  --local E=dfhack.gui.getCurViewscreen().available_civs[D].positions.next_positions_id
  local SBag=grabbag.positions.site
  SBag[0].flags.MILITARY_SCREEN_ONLY=1
  SBag[0].flags.IS_LEADER=1
  SBag[0].flags.DO_NOT_CULL=1
  SBag[0].flags.RULES_FROM_LOCATION=1
  SBag[0].responsibilities.RECEIVE_DIPLOMATS=1

end
chances are this doesn't work due to trying to make it more user friendly (and was originally used in a lua script that boot up a gui which causes get viewscreen() to bug out.)
in discovery of reclaims news I some how bug my test site so that the noble of the area is just a fallen fisherwoman who now the only 'citizen' of the fort. like currently every time I reclaim shes still in the Citizens list and I have access to alter her labors, though that doesn't really effect anything and each fort retire the 'tamed' citizens impale bits of the former fallen founders on spears though merfolk(second reclaim lost their minds), the centaur(third reclaim no military lost their minds), and the ratkin(fourth reclaim all but 2 died from wounds from a bad bird attack gone wrong and retired before one of the ratkin snap and choked the other in their hospital bed, the berserk ratkin was later murder by the local spider-monster who while tame survive 3 reclaims with out being removed or killed.)

Noob question time!  Is there a way to automatically enter one or more DFHack commands every time a savegame is loaded?  I want the game to run the commands "itemsyndrome enable" and "fix/cloth-stockpile" every time a saved game is loaded.

[Putnam]

cloth-stockpile already does and...

okay, yeah, I'm going to fix that up for you, that's an itemsyndrome bug.

EDIT: It should already be doing that >_<

EDIT 2: Too many quotes, fixed.

[narhiril]

My bad on fix/cloth-stockpile, I was reading the r3 documentation instead of the r4 (derp).

I'll take the itemsyndrome stuff back to its proper thread.

If you create a file called onLoad.init or onUnload.init in your data/save/world1/raw folder, then the commands inside it will be run at the appropriate times in r4. They have the same format as dfhack.init in the main df folder. You can use the main one, but that does commands when you open the game, not when you load/unload a save.

[Putnam]

Oh, cool.

Note also that these files are copied to saves if you simply put them in the mod's raw folder.

I am considering the problem of invaders who stand around and do nothing after their leader is killed. Does anyone know of any special issues that could crop up if I made a script to change the group leader id to a living (and uncaged) creature in the group?

Probable steps:
1. I need to identify the flags or whatever that seperates a group leader from the followers.
2. A follower needs to assume the leadership.
3. The other followers need to now follow the new leader - should be just as easy as changing the group_leader_id

Anyone else done any experimenting down this path?

[expwnent]

I haven't done anything like that, but that sounds like a useful thing.

that sounds like messing with adventure mode scripts(companion stuff) or just branch into the path of recruiting invaders into your fort I did some dabbling but not enough to make a script for converting caged gobbos into proper fort citizens.

Testing so far on a goblin siege squad:

The leader has unit.relations.group_leader_id=-1, whereas the followers have unit.relations.group_leader_id=20633 (the leader's id).

If one of the followers is given unit.relations.group_leader_id=-1, he stands around clueless. However, if I then give other goblins unit.relations.group_leader_id=20640 (the NEW leader's id), the whole NEW squad starts to act like a squad and advance. When the goblins decided to retreat and end the siege, the NEW squad also retreated.

The original leader doesn't even have to die - I can choose another "leader" goblin in the group and split the squaddies 50/50 between the old and new group leader, forming two independant half-size squads. Each leader needs at least one follower to be able to move around.

unit.relations.unk_238 was different for the leader of a building destroyer creature squad - otherwise it appears to be zero. The number didn't match any unit ids.
