>>483917797never tried messing around with any of the mods before. hell, haven't even got around to figuring out DFhack, and i use the noob starter pack. isn't there one called 'masterwork' or something that makes everything even more in depth?
https://mega.nz/folder/iIMCCa7L#JPVQ3EUJr2PhR6OMYthapw
>>483928126Masterwork creator is a hack, content thief, and idiotic enough to get mugged traveling to sandland instead of hanging out in central europe where he belongs.
>>483909928Why don’t my dwarves collect things? I gave them all a chest and a cabinet in their rooms and years into the game all of them are still empty
>>483938736chests are for trinkets like toys and what not, while cabinets is where they will drop worn out clothing to my knowledge. If you produce those trinkets and have and active clothing industry the dwarves will find some time in their routine to go and pick something new for them or replace their tartared socks for brand new ones. Im not sure if they need to be placed in a stockpile first or not however so you might want to check on this.I honestly dont know why your dorfs arent picking up new things, It might take some time but if you have things in your stockpile someone should go out and take bring it home.
>>483939419I haven’t set the clothing industry up yet I’ve just been buying what I can from the traders. The clothing industry seems like a huge headfuck because there’s so many items of clothing. Do I just set up work orders to make aload of each type?
>>483941026set up work orders to keep a minimum in stock for each basic stuff and then the rest if you feel that you can supply enough cloth
so i ended up giving DFhack a try just now. being able to filter through lists was really nice. was hoping to make it to the trade screen to see if dfhack makes that any less excruciating than carpel tunneling my hands with enter+enter+down arrow. but alas, game kept crashing, which it never did without dfhack...so, now im in the uncomfortable position of figuring why oh why it's doing it, or just...dealing with the wrist pain. almost worth 'upgrading' to 0.50 just for the new trade interface UI.
Is there anyway of making the world map bigger, I use a tv as my monitor and I think because I play in a high resolution it makes the world map incredibly small and you can see any locations on it
>>483914662What the fuck
>>483914662Oh shit you beat me to it.
>making a DF thread on /vg/.You fucking morons, the reason it died so long ago is because the board speed is too fast for a DF thread nowadays.You should have just waited until the /vst/ DF thread died and made a new non general DF thread that would last a month there instead of making a general DF thread here that will last half a day at best.
love giant women
How do I design a fort layout that looks interesting and aesthetically pleasing, I’m autistic btw so my forts usually just end up being square blocks
>>483958242stop making squares or "optmized" pathfinding patterns for performace
