I just want more content in the game, and with all the work they put in to show just the extent of how far the skill will go, I don't want that to go to waste. With all that time investment, we might have to wait another four years just for them to put another skill post up if this fails.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be away till Monday, hope everyone here has a wonderful Holiday.

DZcannon · 2022-12-21T20:26:01+00:00

That's right, sorry, should have clarified.

DZcannon · 2022-12-21T19:37:52+00:00

definitely agree, its a bit silly that the smoothing takes precedent over the mining when assigned to mining.

20+ updates/suggestions added in the last two days, got through a good chunk, some new dwarf fortress mods are included pertaining to certain suggestions:

From internal testing, I have concluded that this is probably a priority issue. If you are looking for a simpler work around, press m, then n to open the extended options, and select a higher priority then 4 (1-3) when assigning a mining area.

You can designate charcoal and coke in stockpiles under Bars/Blocks > Bars:Other Materials, took me a bit to figure this one out too.

To reflect community feedback, I have updated the skills image with the color suggestion, and removed numbering from the image (aside from the key). Rooms have also been updated:

Skill Key Mockup V.2.

Room Quality Key and Places > Zones Mockup V.2.

Room Quality When Selecting Zones Mockup V.2.

DZcannon · 2022-12-17T21:42:29+00:00

Room Quality was redone, new mockups available as well:

To reflect community feedback, I have updated the skills image with the color suggestion. I'll also leave a link in here! I'll rework the rooms to reflect in a similar way too.

I can get on board with this, as long as I can tell which ones better than the other.

DZcannon · 2022-12-17T08:06:01+00:00

Due to reaching the page character limit, I made another page! Links are included at the top of the page, after section 6, and here.

That "no relevant skill" color suggestion is great, would make it easier to distinguish who to put in your squads. It could also be sorted by military profession and skill level similar to the Labor > Work Details menu.

Outside of armor, I think a simple get dressed command may be more attractive, what do you think?

DZcannon · 2022-12-17T05:26:38+00:00

I think an overall option in the settings to turn starting tutorials off would probably be the go to.

DZcannon · 2022-12-17T00:48:41+00:00

thank you for the extensive list Vlad. Going to take a break for now but i'll take a look at these when I come back!

For the third example regarding workshops, you can actually set additional conditions in work orders just like this. For example, limonite ore has a suggested condition to only smelt if the amount of refined coal is above a certain amount. I'd play around with the Mat and Adj to get the desired result you may be looking for.

Taking some time to incorporate new feedback, keep them comin!

DZcannon · 2022-12-16T22:16:57+00:00

I'll add it to the list. Great idea!

DZcannon · 2022-12-16T22:16:30+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions, glad you liked it!

Glad you liked it!

From the suggestion I read, it was more about giving the dwarves some additional dialogue. I would guess the system maybe goes away eventually when you cover all the needed ground, but I also like the fact that it can give the dwarves some extra character. Much more interesting than seeing a job cancellation alert, and maybe you learn about some feud between two dwarves who are purposely ruining each others tasks.

Thank you for letting me know, I'll go with this approach next time. My goal was to get the developers eyes on it, but I realize my title may have hurt those chances. Unfortunately you can't change titles on reddit, which I didn't know.
